Acne is caused by a bacterial infection in the pores of the skin, the pus is a result of your immune system fighting off the infection. So technically acne isn’t the problem, it is the result of your body handling it.
If left alone acne takes care of itself eventually.
The underlying cause is usually an excess of oil on your skin which feeds the bacteria and causes your pores to be clogged. So modifying your hygiene and routine can reduce outbreaks significantly in most people.
