Acne in children can be cured.

However, if treated properly, but lifestyle factors such as sleep, diet, stress, bowel movements, and environment are neglected, acne may recur. Acne, medically referred to as acne vulgaris, is a chronic inflammatory disease of the hair follicle sebaceous glands. It can affect appearance and can occur at all ages, though it is most common in adolescents.

The development of acne is mainly related to several factors: androgens, increased sebum production, excessive keratinization at the opening of the hair follicle sebaceous glands, infection with Propionibacterium acnes, and subsequent inflammatory responses. Other contributing factors for some patients include genetics, immunity, endocrine disorders, emotions, stress, diet, and staying up late.

In treating acne, the main principles are to reduce sebum, dissolve keratin, kill bacteria, reduce inflammation, and regulate hormone levels, which can lead to healing. However, it is important to maintain a light diet daily, avoiding spicy, fried foods, hot pots, barbecues, and beverages, as well as preventing staying up late, as long-term lack of sleep can also cause recurrent acne outbreaks.
