Acne is a common skin condition that develops in stages, each with different symptoms. At La Bella Skin & Body, we know how frustrating acne can be, and we’re here to help you manage it with the right care.

The Four Stages of Acne

• Congestion (Stage 1): This stage includes blackheads and small bumps under the skin caused by clogged pores.
• Pustules (Stage 2): Infections develop, creating small pus-filled pimples.
• Papules (Stage 3): Red, painful bumps appear as the infection worsens.
• Cystic Acne (Stage 4): The most severe form, cystic acne, causes large, painful lumps under the skin, which can lead to scarring.

What Causes Acne?

Acne happens when hair follicles get clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Hormonal changes, overactive oil glands, and using the wrong skincare products can make acne worse. Over-exfoliating or using harsh products can damage the skin, causing more oil production and breakouts.

Types of Acne

• Blackheads and Whiteheads: Small, non-inflamed bumps, common in early stages.
• Papules and Pustules: Red, inflamed spots or pimples filled with pus.
• Nodules and Cysts: Large, painful lumps that form under the skin and can cause scarring.
