adult acne
Acne.org has written adult acne and write "Adult acne affects 25% of all adult men and 50% of adult women at some time in their adult lives. These are the official statistics, but I personally don't know many adults who have not had a zit or two in their adult lives. People can develop unpleasant acne or have an acne recurrence in their 20s, 30s, 40s and beyond. It can be difficult to cope with no matter your age, and can cause depression and social anxiety in an adult the same way it can in a teen."
Aesthetic.lumenis has written adult acne and write "Approximately 90% of all adolescents and 25% of all adults experience acne at some point in their lives. It's one of the most extensive medical conditions in the world, and is responsible for about 30% of all visits to the dermatologists. Unfortunately, it's not easy to treat. Traditional therapies have a variety of side effects and sometimes require months to work, if they work at all. Topical creams and lotions can cause redness and irritation. Oral antibiotics can cause stomach upset, light sensitivity and yeast infections in women, and studies indicate about 40% of skin bacteria have become resistant to antibiotics, making them a doubtful ally in the fight against skin breakouts."
Medicinenet has written adult acne and write "Adult acne is a very common problem, but an under-recognized one," says Jeffrey Weinberg, MD, director of clinical research at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center, New York. "Acne can occur later in life. It can be one or both types. People think it doesn't happen in adults, but it does." At the heart of acne lies the pimple -- what doctors call a comedo. It's a plug of fat, skin debris, and keratin (the stuff nails, hair, and skin are made of) stuck in a hair duct. When it's open, we call it a blackhead. When it's closed over, we call it a whitehead. Whiteheads often cause the walls of the hair duct to rupture. This leads to redness, infection, and the papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts of acne. Boys are more likely to suffer acne scarring than girls. But girls are more likely to have adult acne."
Beauty.about has written adult acne and write "If you noticed the acne you had when you were 15 is returning at age 35, rest assured, you're in good company. One in five women between the ages of 25 & 40 suffer from adult acne."
Acne-resource has written adult acne and write "Adult Acne: Normally 95% of the people affected by acne are infected with acne in their teenage years. The other 5% develop acne during middle age (30-40ís and beyond) ñ mainly due to hormonal changes. Acne is also a hereditary disease. According to research conducted on women who have developed acne in their teens and who continue to experience breakouts beyond their teens, studies have shown an increase in circulatory androgen levels and free testosterone. It is advisable to check these abnormal hormonal imbalances so that the symptoms improve. If the symptoms are very troublesome, it is always better to approach a skin specialist. It takes time to heal, so it is advisable to continue with the medicine for at least six to eight weeks. Several treatments are available and a dermatologist can prescribe the best possible medicine."
