All are the same,acne is just the real word,like a doctor would use.

the person above me is retarded. they are all the same thing.

technically they are all the same thing, but just because you get one pimple doesnt mean you have acne. Acne is usually spread over an infected area, (big or small), is reoccuring, and hard to get rid of without clearasil or something of that nature.

Acne is a very common skin disorder that most young people get in early puberty. It is caused by inflammation of the small oil glands. Log on to http://tipsfromruby-acne.blogspot.com/ for a few home made tips to heal acne .

They're not necessarily the same thing. Acne comes of in various forms including, mild, moderate, severe, cystic, nodular, nodularcystic. Pimples are usually small and contain pus. Zits are the slang term for them.
