    Glossary Inflammatory Acne

    occurs when clogged hair follicles cause red, swollen lesions

    Inflammatory acne, also known as acne inflammatoria, is a type of acne characterized by red, swollen, and often painful lesions. These lesions occur when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, leading to bacterial infection and an immune response that causes inflammation. This condition can result in papules, pustules, nodules, or cysts, and often requires more intensive treatment than non-inflammatory acne.
