Problem With Acne

Acne can be a big problem for men, especially when it leaves scars or when one continues to suffer from the condition well into adulthood. It can be a veritable heartbreak that causes unnecessary insecurity with not just the opposite sex, but with people in general. In this article we'll show you what causes acne and ways to treat it Acne can be cured Unfortunately, as many people with severe cases of acne will tell you, it can't be cured. It can definitely be controlled, but not cured. Acne is largely influenced by genetics, so if you parents had skin problems, you're likely to have them too.

Tanning is good for acne The logic is there -- the sun will fry pimples away -- but it's totally wrong. In fact, the sun can make acne worse.

Only prescription drugs can treat acne Although it's true that powerful drugs like Accutane are better than most over-the-counter products, non-prescription skin care products can handle the average acne condition just as well as the big boys, but without the fuss of having to go see a doctor first. It's all a matter of choosing the right product for the right problem. Acne is a result of bad hygiene Acne is caused by bacteria, an overabundance of oil, blocking of skin pores, and, in the more severe cases, by a hormonal imbalance. Washing one's face countless times each day with soap does absolutely nothing. Only abnormal neglect will have a negative effect on the skin.

What causes acne? First of all, acne is normal. Nearly 85% of adolescents get it at puberty, as it usually tones down around the early to mid-twenties, but never quite disappears. As stated above, acne is a genetic problem and how biological and environmental conditions will affect a person largely depends on their family background. Having said that, some people naturally have fewer skin problems than others

Here are the factors that cause pimples.
Hormones
Adolescent males start to produce testosterone, a potent hormone that increases the production of oil (sebum) on the skin. Once sebum production increases, it can build up in hair ducts and pores, producing pain, swelling and the formation of pus.

Diet
Conflicting reports claim that chocolate and junk may or may not produce acne. But with some foods affecting hormone levels, it is safe to say the some food "can" cause acne, although genetics might have more to do with it.

Stress Studies have shown that long periods of stress can increase skin problems since anxiety imbalances hormone levels.

Drugs Certain drugs including androgens, lithium and barbiturates are known to cause acne.

Friction
Wearing articles of clothing or other rough materials that can irritate the skin may produce pimples in clusters. Wearing a cap on a hot muggy day for an extended period of time is a good example.

Sun
As stated before, some individuals have outbreaks after weeks of continuous sunbathing. Tanning lotions and sun block can sometimes make it worse.
