Artwork of skin surrounded with acne bacteria
Acne. Artwork showing a section of human skin surrounded by skin bacteria, a cause of acne. Acne is a skin disorder in which the sebaceous glands and hair follicles become inflamed. The hair (brown) lies within a pit called a follicle. Halfway down the follicle on the right is a sebaceous gland (white) which produces oily sebum. If sebum blocks the follicle, bacteria (green, not to scale) may multiply and cause inflammation. Treatment is with antibiotic drugs and ultraviolet light. A coiled sweat gland (mauve), fat deposits (yellow), sensory nerves (green) and blood vessels (red and blue) can also be seen

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases a section of human skin surrounded by acne bacteria, shedding light on the underlying causes of this common skin disorder. Acne occurs when the sebaceous glands and hair follicles become inflamed, leading to various forms of blemishes and breakouts. In this print, we can observe a brown hair nestled within a follicle while halfway down lies a white sebaceous gland responsible for producing oily sebum. The intricate illustration vividly demonstrates how blockage in the follicle due to excessive sebum production can create an environment conducive for bacterial growth. The green bacteria depicted here represent the multiplying culprits that trigger inflammation and contribute to acne development. Beyond these key elements, other components of our skin anatomy are also visible in this artwork. A coiled sweat gland in mauve, yellow fat deposits, green sensory nerves, as well as red and blue blood vessels complete the comprehensive portrayal. Understanding the intricacies behind acne formation is crucial for effective treatment strategies. Antibiotic drugs and ultraviolet light therapy are commonly employed methods to combat this condition's symptoms. Through its thought-provoking composition, this art print not only highlights the scientific aspects but also emphasizes the importance of proper skincare practices and medical intervention in maintaining healthy skin.
