Adult acne can be a frustrating and embarrassing problem to have, regardless what you want to call it. Some people may never outgrow their teenage spotty years but some don't even need to go through that phase before being inflicted by painful adult acne.
Adult acne is different from teenage acne and hence requires a different approach to treatment. Adult acne usually affects the lower half of the face, whereas teen acne is generally on the upper face. Adult acne comes up under the skin, which can't be drained; it is deeper and appears as a cyst.
From where does this acne appear?
An acne occurs when sebum, the lubricant that naturally moisturizers our skin and hair is trapped under dead skin cells and debris in a hair follicle. Typically, sebum rises to the surface where it is able to condition the skin. Sebum trapped in the pore is the perfect place for bacteria to flourish. Inflammation, cyst, pustules, whiteheads and blackheads are the result. If left untreated, these can erupt, creating stretched large pores, unsightly scars and even post-inflammatory pigmentation.
To achieve a new equilibrium for the skin to maintain its own healthy, breakout-free appearance without harsh chemicals and irritants, and treat adult acne effectively, we have to look at addressing the internal causes of acne and have a long term approach using appropriate skin treatments and skin care.
Treating acne will be easier if you follow these recommendations:
Check for food intolerances first; inflammation and toxicity in the system can result from excess burden on the digestive tract or immune system, worsening acne. If the bowel does not properly eliminate toxins, this can cause congestion and oxidation in the skin (it is the largest organ of elimination).
Specify your needs and implement a supplement plan according to your nutritional deficiencies. Your daily diet should include lots of nutrient rich, high fiber foods, fruit and vegetables, and essential fatty acids. Supplements like Vitamin A, C, and E complex support your system: these nutrients are antioxidants specific for skin health that help repair skin and balance hormones, increase elasticity and hydration, reduce inflammation, balance oxidation in the skin, and support collagen production.
A balanced, anti-inflammatory diet that is rich in nutrient dense foods is essential for skin health. You will improve digestion and elimination, restore your acid/alkaline balance, maintain healthier insulin levels, and support a normal hormone profile. Plant based foods, lean protein, essential fatty acids, and fiber rich complex carbohydrates make up the basic diet for acne.
By addressing the internal causes of acne, you can work toward achieving an acne free complexion.
