Active Acne in Adulthood


As children, most of us were reminded daily to stop picking at our acne lesions. Our parents also refused to take us to a specialist, suggesting that we would “grow out” of the disorder. This approach continues to this day, with parents ignoring their children’s pleas for help. The excuse is that their minds are inundated with other concerns, such as where they’ll get the money to pay for the car repair or how they can get ahead at work.

Sadly, few have thought of reworking the approach. How much water does this notion actually hold? After all, more and more adults are reporting cases of acne on a yearly basis. Could it just be possible that acne doesn’t vanish during adulthood as we would all like to believe?

Acne arises when the pores get clogged with dead skin cells. The oil that our sebaceous glands produce becomes trapped in the pore, and begins to fuel a multiplication frenzy among p. acnes bacteria. With a sudden rise in bacteria counts, the body reacts by inducing inflammation. At a basic level, acne is just the body’s immune response to the p. acnes bacteria duplicating. The skin’s failure to properly shed dead cells can be caused by a variety of factors.

One is an abnormal shedding cycle. Another is an unhealthy sebum composition that traps the dead skin to the new layers of skin. Depending on the particular person, either of these abnormalities can be caused by genetics, diet, hormonal factors, the list goes and on. Hence, to stake the claim that all children will eventually grow out of acne is careless and unsubstantiated.

If you suffered from this terrible condition during your childhood, and are now plagued by it once again, a dermatological visit should be in order. The medications which these doctors have at their disposal will provide you with relief. You may be prescribed topical medications to help the skin shed, or even oral retinoids that completely halt oil production. It all depends on the severity of your acne. We advise against waiting any longer as acne scarring can arise, which is aesthetically displeasing and an expensive repair. Quick action is warranted in cases of acne.
