According to American Academy of Dermatology, acne is the most widespread skin ailment in America, which affects nearly 50 million citizens. Almost 85% of people have acne mostly on chest, face, and back. Although overproduction of oil and blockage of follicles are the main causes, the experts have also unleashed one more cause through research – the influx of Demodex parasites. Thriving on the oily sebum as well as under follicles, these microscopic mites are found to be 2.8 times more in acne patients. Similarly, the infestation rate is also 20% more in them than in healthy people. These facts clearly reveal the need of a treatment that can deal with these parasites effectively.
