FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What causes Acne? Acne is a condition of the sebaceous hair follicle. The hair follicles, or pores, in your skin contain sebaceous glands. These glands make sebum, which is an oil that lubricates hair and skin. Normally, sebum travels through the hair follicle to the skin surface. With acne, sebum is trapped, clogging the follicle. Bacteria that seems to cause most acnes is called Propionibacterium acnes (P.acnes) and is present in everybody’s skin, usually lodged in the hair follicle. The clogged follicle becomes a breeding ground for bacteria. When the sebaceous gland gets clogged, and sebum builds up inside the follicle, P. acnes multiply rapidly resulting in acne. Why is a combination of blue and red light used? Research has shown that blue light kills P. acnes bacteria while red light helps reduce inflammation. How often should I use the product?
