Acne and Related Disorders
Acne commonly erupts in areas of maximal sebaceous gland activity: the face, neck, chest, shoulders, back, and upper arms. Acne is rarely misdiagnosed. It is easily recognizable by both the patient and the practitioner. The management of acne, however, is frequently complex.
Acne is a disorder that involves the hair-oil (pilosebaceous) apparatus of the skin. Acne vulgaris or common acne (referred to herein as adolescent acne) begins in the teen or preteen years. In general, it becomes less active as adolescence ends, but it may continue into adulthood. Acne that initially occurs in adulthood is designated post adolescent acne or adult-onset acne.

That is called New York City to a dust mite. Do you sit in a favorite chair when you watch T.V? That is Las Vegas. Do you use the same pillow night after night? Welcome to Miami.
