Why do I have Acne?
Most people who suffer from acne feel that they are alone in their suffering and have asked themselves some of these same questions.
“Other names that are often used to describe acne are pimples, zits, lesions, bumps, red spots, breakouts, blackheads, whiteheads, clogged pores and rash.”
Acne Vulgaris is the most frequently diagnosed and most common dermatological condition affecting adolescents worldwide so it’s not just you that feels this way. The reality is that acne is a very common and often chronic medical condition of the hair follicles that line the skin and their associated oil-producing glands. It occurs most commonly on the face, especially in the area known as the “T”zone, which includes the forehead, nose and chin.
Many factors affect who will get acne, at what age they will get acne, how severely the acne will effect them, and whether they will ever outgrow the acne. Ultimately, anyone can get acne at any age, from birth to old age. It is a skin condition that occurs in every gender, race, and ethnicity. The people who were spared acne in their teen years may one day wake up in their 30’s and 40’s to find a few pimples.
Most commonly though, acne is a product of teenage years, even if it lasts well beyond those years. Acne can consist of a single pimple or many lesions. It can look red or white, or even black. It can be itchy, painful or merely unsightly.
For Adults and teens alike who suffer from mild Vulgaris acne, products are not usually necessary, a few simple habit changes is all it usually takes to rid yourself of these annoying and sometimes painful acne spots. Once you understand the basic idea of what causes acne and follow the tips on how to avoid acne, it will give you a general idea of how to stop acne before it starts.
As every individual is different, it is very difficult to diagnose what treatment works for each person. For example, a simple diet change including Vitamins will work for some but not for others, or an acne product containing the Yellow Dock plant extract (which effectively helps against skin inflammation and infection) would work for some but not for others. The only way to know what stops acne for you is trial and error.
The important thing to remember is most cases of acne vulgaris can be cured so it is not hopeless. If you are patient in trying different home remedies for acne, then there is a good chance that you will stumble upon the right combination of ingredients that will work for you.
But, if you have an important meeting coming up or need to have clearer skin for the prom, you may want to invest in an acne product that is guaranteed to work quickly so you can spend less time worrying about your acne and more time living your life with healthy skin.
