The campaign aimed to raise public awareness about its causes, types, prevention strategies, and appropriate treatment options. The initiative highlighted the difference between inflammatory and non-inflammatory acne, discussed common triggers, and addressed common misconceptions. Students provided simplified, evidence-based information aligned with the guidelines of the Saudi Ministry of Health, emphasizing the importance of early intervention to prevent scarring and pigmentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The campaign included educational booths promoting proper skincare routines, discouraging harmful practices such as squeezing lesions, and encouraging consultation with a dermatologist in moderate to severe cases.
