Ayurvedic treatment for pimples



Hormones called androgens become active and stimulate oil glands in your skin, increasing oil production. This, in turn, clogs pores , causing pimples and blackheads.

Sebum lubricates the skin. Sometimes the wall of the oil gland breaks and spills the sebum within the skin which causes redness, swelling, and pus - in other words a pimple.
