Acne is a skin-related condition present in different forms and severity levels.

Some Common Types of Acne Include

Whiteheads

Whiteheads are flesh-coloured or white small bumps on the surface of the skin.

Blackheads

Almost similar to whiteheads, but they remain open at the surface of the skin and their colour is black due to the presence of oxidised melanin.

Papules

Papules are red bumps that cause pain when touched.

Nodules

Nodules are painful. These are small bumps that develop beneath the surface of the skin and can last for many days.

Cysts

These are red and large bumps that cause enhanced pain.
