The disease manifests itself mainly on the face and body especially in areas with lots sebaceous glandules. The symptoms vary from person to person but in most of the cases it varies from low to medium intensity. In some cases, it can be very intense, like the conglobata acne and queloideano acne (the acne that turns into a scar after the healing of the inflammation)
Clinically acne can be divided in four stages:
- First: Only blackheads, without inflamed lesions (pimples)
- Second: Little blackheads and pimples, with little inflamed lesions and little yellow spots of pus.
- Third: Blackheads. These are small pimples from small to medium in size, and are much deeper and painful causing redness with inflamed lesions.
- Fourth: Blackheads, pimples and big lesions that are inflamed with an ugly feature.
Acne must be treated during its initial stages in order to avoid scars on the skin thus avoiding emotional disturbances to the individual. This is especially true in young people whose self-esteem is assailed by Acne.
