Understanding Adult Acne: Causes and Treatment
Most people associate acne with the teenage years, largely due to hormonal changes during adolescence. However, acne can also affect adults and may sometimes be severe. Learning about adult acne can help in preventing and managing it effectively.
Causes of Adult Acne
Hormonal Changes
Adult acne can strike unexpectedly, even for those who didn't experience it in their teenage years. Hormonal fluctuations, pregnancy, and the use of birth control pills in women can lead to increased sebum production, resulting in acne. Additionally, anabolic steroids used by athletes for muscle building may contribute to acne, as well as certain medications like lithium or tuberculosis treatments. It's essential to discuss potential side effects with your doctor to determine if medication could be the cause.
Acne Mechanica
Tight clothing or carrying objects that apply pressure and friction to the skin can lead to a specific type of acne called Acne Mechanica. Opting for loose-fitting, breathable fabrics can help mitigate this risk.
Chloracne
Exposure to chlorinated solvents in the workplace can cause chloracne, a specific type of acne. Protective measures and minimizing contact with these chemicals is advised if you work in such environments.
Treatment of Adult Acne
Treating adult acne can be more challenging than adolescent acne. Consistent adherence to your doctor's prescribed treatment plan is crucial to effectively manage and reduce acne. Untreated, it can lead to psychological distress and long-term scarring.
