What Is the Difference Between Clogged Pores & Acne?

Published Jul,18 2017 | By Lilian M Raji

Clogged pores and acne are two different skin conditions. While acne doesn't occur without pores first being clogged, clogged pores alone don't necessarily lead to acne. Clogged pores are caused by a combination of dead skin cells, dirt and excessive sebum, which are natural oils produced by the sebaceous glands.
