WHAT IS ACNE AND WHO GETS IT?

Acne also known as pimples are the common cause of ‘spots’. Most people with acne are aged between 12 and 25, but some older and younger people are affected. It is estimated that about 3 in 10 teenagers have acne bad enough to need treatment to prevent scarring. Inflamed acne needs to be treated early to prevent scarring.

WHAT CAUSES ACNE?

Understanding normal skin Small sebaceous glands lie just under the skin surface. These glands make the ‘oil’ (sebum) that keeps the skin supple and smooth. Tiny pores (holes) on the skin allow the sebum to come onto the skin surface. Hair also grow through these pores. During the teenage years, you make much more sebum than when you were a child. This is due to the hormone changes of puberty which stimulate the sebaceous glands. As a rule, the more sebum that you make, the more greasy your skin feels, and the worse acne is likely to be. Some people make more sebum than others. Trapped sebum is ideal for a bacterium (germ) called P.acnes to live and multiply. If a large number develop in the trapped sebum, the immune system may react and cause inflammation Also, a small pitted scar/pigmented scar is commonly left on the skin where there was an inflamed spot. Certain diseases in girls and women may cause acne, or make acne worse. For example, polycystic ovary syndrome, and conditions that cause excess male hormone.

WHAT MAKES ACNE WORSE?

• The progesterone-only contraceptive pill may make acne worse.
• In women, the hormone changes around the monthly Menstruation or Period may cause a flare-up of spots.
• Thick or greasy make-up may, possibly, make acne worse.
• Sweating heavily or humid conditions may make acne worse
• Spots may develop under tight clothes.
• Some drugs can make acne worse.
• Anabolic steroids (which some body-builders take illegally) can make acne worse.
• Stress
• Certain foods.
