DIFFERENT TYPES OF ACNE LESIONS

• Papules – inflamed lesions that usually appear as small, pink bumps on the skin and can be tender to the touch

• Pustules (pimples) – papules topped by white or yellow pus-filled lesions that may be red at the base

• Nodules – large, painful, solid lesions that are lodged deep within the skin

• Cysts – deep, painful, pus-filled lesions that can cause scarring
