EGF may stimulate excessive cell growth, potentially leading to acne flare-ups in acne-prone individuals due to increased sebum production and clogged pores. This results in an increase in pimples, blackheads and inflammation.
Acne flare-ups may occur due to epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulating excessive cell growth and sebum production, leading to clogged pores and inflammation. This manifests as an increase in the number and severity of pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads, primarily on the face, but potentially also on the neck, chest, and back. The inflammation may cause redness, swelling, and tenderness around the affected areas.
