Salma had a very soft and smooth skin during her childhood.

As she entered adolescence, she developed pimples on her face.


The skin specialist advised her to wash her face at regular intervals. Can you explain the reasons for the appearance of pimples on her face and suggest ways to prevent them?

During puberty, the activity of sebaceous gland, sweat gland increases leading to release of more oil, sweat which gets collected in pores of skin thus pores get blocked. Bacteria grow there leading to the development of pimples. So we have to clean our face at regular interval to make our face sweat and oil free. We can use face wash which will remove oil and sweat thus pores on skin gets opened. So bacteria cannot grow and there will be no pimples or acne.
