Most skin bumps, spots, growths, and moles are harmless. Colored skin spots, also called pigmented lesions (such as freckles, moles or flesh-colored skin spots), or growths (such as warts or skin tags) may be present at birth or develop as the skin ages.
Most skin spots on babies will go away without treatment within a few months. Birthmarks are colored marks on the skin that are present at birth or develop shortly after birth.

First things first - Let's consider the three factors that cause acne:
* Increased oil production: This corresponds to where you fall on the dry vs. oily scale. In adult women, hormonal fluctuations - from pregnancy or oral contraceptives, for example - can cause increased oil production. If you think you fall into this category, consider talking to your doctor about birth control pills that can decrease oil production.
* Clogged pores: Oil causes dead skin cells to stick together and clog pores (resulting in blackheads and whiteheads).
* Bacteria: As bacteria
