Acne is an inherited disorder of the pores. If you have this disorder, you are shedding dead skin cells inside the pore at a much faster rate of speed than normal. Then those dead skin cells get stuck inside the pore causing an impaction. If the body sees this as a foreign invader, then it will send white blood cells to fight it. That causes inflammation and pus, thus resulting in a pimple.

What types of glands in the skin are responsible for the condition acne Where are these glands located and how do they produce acne?

Acne is primarily caused by sebaceous glands, which are located in the dermis layer of the skin and are associated with hair follicles. These glands produce sebum, an oily substance that helps to lubricate the skin. When the glands become overactive, often due to hormonal changes, they can produce excess sebum that, along with dead skin cells, clogs hair follicles. This blockage creates an environment conducive to the growth of bacteria, leading to inflammation and the formation of acne lesions.
