However, the density of these units may vary on different parts. Chest, neck and face are the body parts which have dense pilosebaceous units. This aspect makes these parts more prone to occurrence of acne.Acne appears in form of cysts, papules, nodules, pustules etc. Some of these are mild and some are severe. Prolonged existence of acne may lead to depression. Factors like unhygienic and irregular eating habits, hormonal imbalances, stress, pre-existing health conditions are considered as main caused responsible for development of acne. Some researchers attribute occurrence of acne to sexual activities and use of certain medications.
