This is major news.

Lads this is unreal news… a vaccine has been discovered that could banish acne forever.

A study by the University of California in San Diego has revealed a way to block the bacteria that damages skin.

The scientists have targeted a type of bacteria in the skin and stopped it from producing inflammatory toxins.

So that’s good news.

The vaccine discovered uses the body’s own immune system to tackle the bacteria that can cause acne and skin conditions.

The lead investigator on the study, Chun-Ming Huang, said:

“The potential impact of our findings is huge for the hundreds of millions of individuals suffering from acne.”

“Current treatment options are often not effective or tolerable for many of the 85 percent of adolescents and more than 40 million adults in the United States who suffer from this condition.”

“New, safe and efficient therapies are sorely needed.”

As a result, the study is planning to move forward with large clinical trials.

This could honestly be life changing for people who suffer with acne.
