Adult Acne

August 13, 2008



One generally associates acne and pimples with one’s adolescence years due to the hormonal changes in one’s body during those years. However, there are many adult men and women who face the problem of acne in their later age due to various factors like stress, cosmetics and hormonal changes. Given below is an analysis of the causes of adult acne and the natural way to get rid of them.

Acne during adulthood can be caused due to various reasons. Acne usually begins with blackheads which in turn can be caused due to the trapping of oil and dead cells in one’s pores. These in turn become black when exposed to air and can later turn into acne which can leave permanent marks on the skin. In addition, stress is another major factor which leads to the problem of acne as stress leads to the overworking of oil glands and similarly, bad cosmetics or those with harmful chemicals can also lead to the formation of acne on one’s skin. It has been found that many women face the problem of acne due to the use of birth pills or due to hormonal problems. Hormones can cause sebaceous glands to overact while androgen present in birth control pills can lead to breakouts in the skin. Diet too can cause acne in some cases and food items which are associated with acne are generally those with produce acidity in the stomach.

The best way to treat acne is to prevent their formation by regularly cleansing your face. One can use medicated cleansers with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to effectively get rid of acne. Similarly, one can also try exfoliating the skin but one should avoid scrubbing the skin too hard. Moreover, if the problem persists, one should consult a proper dermatologist to effectively get rid of this problem.
