shed and mix with excess sebum produced by
sebaceous glands, forming a plug which leads
to clogged pores.
15. Stage 2; Bacteria – accumulated sebum
and dead cells attract the P. acne bacteria
naturally found in skin which feeds on oil
and multiplies rapidly inside pores.

overgrowth triggers the natural
inflammatory response causing swelling
and redness. This can ultimately lead to
discoloration and scarring.
