What
Causes Acne
There
are many myths about what causes Acne flare ups, but no
one single cause is to blame. Acne is influenced by several
factors, many of which are out of your control. Stress,
bad cosmetics, hormones and birth control pills are common
contributors to acne breakouts. Many individuals are under
the misconception that eating certain foods can cause
or worsen their acne condition. Rather, general diets
high in fat oils, and sugars often lead to skin conditions
like acne.
Adult
Acne
Acne affects
a number of people including teenagers and adults up to
40 years of age. The American Academy of Dermatology reports
80 percent of adults between the ages of 20 and 30 suffer
from mild to moderate acne. Over half of all women, regardless
of age, suffer from some form of acne.
Adult
onset acne most commonly affects women as hormonal changes
often occur during ovulation and menstruation, pregnancy,
perimenopause, and menopause. 60-70% of women who battle
with acne experience premenstrual flare-ups.

appears in various forms along the face, back, neck &
