Acne

ACNE

Acne can strike at any age and if left untreated can lead to scars and or skin discoloration. It’s a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Acne can be visible in the form of pimples, whiteheads, blackheads, and in more severe cases, cysts or nodules. If you’re looking to treat your acne, V-Care America can treat your acne.
