The Zit Zone

Arming teens against the acne enemy

Acne, pimples and zits most commonly affect teenagers ages between 13 and 18 years-old. Acne plagues individuals of all ages (yes adults too); however blackheads and whiteheads are most familiar to those going through puberty.

Acne can be very embarrassing and individuals who suffer from it are often self-conscious about the way they look. Pimples, also known as blemishes or zits, appear occasionally due to stress, hormones or a poor skin care regime. They usually don't last very long. Acne however, is a skin condition that describes an outbreak of pimples and zits that form in clusters and cover large areas of the face.


The zit zone will try to help you understand why teenagers break out; how to prevent acne; and it will discuss prevention and treatment methods that are available to those suffering from zits and more severe cases of acne.

For more information on acne, feel free to check out the articles in this section: Within these useful articles you'll find information on - the causes of acne, zits and pimples, and ways to prevent and combat these conditions. If you're a teen suffering from acne - remember that you're not alone. This site is filled with resources to help you understand and prevent acne. There are also many over-the-counter acne creams, washes and strips that are recommended by doctors for controlling and eliminating acne. If you suffer from severe acne, please consult your doctor or dermatologist.
