Our topic for today is about Acne or Pimples. What to do? Especially for teenagers and women. Teenagers and women are more likely to develop acne or pimples because of the changes in their hormones, there are bacteria in the skin, or fatty acids come from the oil glands.
Usaually a person will start having acne at the age of ten. Teenagers will naturally have it too. By the early 20's especially if the acne was not inherited, or the skin was not oily, Acne will soon dissappear.
But in other cases. Their acne continues into their 30's, 40's and even into their 50's. And the cause of this acne is hormonal or natural chemicals in our body that give its characteristic.
Women often have adult acne, which is most commonly seen in the lower cheeks, jaw and chin. Hormone estrogen enhances the skin, While androgen hormone is responsible for its oily and sensetive properties. Because women have a menstrual cycle they are more likely to develop hormonal changes. When the androgen hormone rises and the estrogen hormone goes down, there will be a hormonal imbalance, the skin becomes more oily and acne is more likely to develop. Stress in acne is a major factor.
In order to really improve the skin of those with adult acne, they need to be aware in their conditions. Women who experience it should consult with an ob gynecologist and a dermatologist. They will give you an answer on how to manage your hormonal imbalance. Face is a sensitive part of our body so no matter what our age, To take care of our we should be more careful.
