It was discovered that a number of the violet (or blue) light visible from the sunlight, within a range of 405 to 420 nanometers, activates the Coproporphyrin III found in the acne-causing bacteria, Propionibacterium acnes. The porphyrin destroys and kills the culprit bacteria as it releases singlet oxygen. An amount of 320 Joules per square centimeter of light in the 405-420 nm range prevents the survival and viability of the bacteria. This portion of the light spectrum, which is outside the sun's ultraviolet spectrum, produces minimal sunburn or tanning.
When looking around online you'll soon find plenty of websites promising to be the miracle acne cure, if only you spend hundreds of dollars each year on their cleansers or special pills...
Acne occurs most commonly on the face. Hence it is a cause of loss of self esteem which can increase stress, which itself can then contribute to more acne. It can also occur on the back, chest, and shoulders.
