Acne is a serious trouble among people to handle, it is a skin condition that occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. It causes whiteheads, blackheads or pimples. Acne is most common among teenagers, though it affects people of all ages.
A new research published in Cell Reports Medicine, shows that specially-selected strains of lactobacilli both shift the skin microbiome in a positive manner and reduce acne lesions. Scientists are investigating an alternative approach for treating acne: using probiotics to alter the collection of bacteria and other microorganisms residing on the skin.
