What is acne and what causes it?

Acne is a chronic skin condition primarily caused by overactivity of the sebaceous glands. It varies from blackheads to deep, painful inflamed lesions. Acne usually shows during adolescence, while in adults, it can be the result of hormonal imbalances, genetic factors, or improper skin care. Regardless of the cause, acne treatment needs a professional approach and long term treatment.

What type of acne do I have?

Acne can be classified according to the different types of skin lesions:

• Comedonal acne, the presence of only open and closed comedones.
• Papulopustular acne.
• Nodular cystic acne.

 

Acne vulgaris

This is the most common form of acne. Also called adolescent acne shows during puberty. This form usually affects the nose, forehead, and chin. Acne vulgaris usually resolves on its own after a few years, around the time of adulthood.

 

Acne septicaemia

Pustular cysts that heal and leave unsightly scars.

 

Acne conglobata

This is more common in men. In addition to the typical acne vulgaris lesions, purulent cysts and deep infiltrates appear on the skin, which can merge and leave large, uneven scars. In addition to the facial skin, acne can also appear in the armpits, groin, or buttocks.

 

Rosacea

It develops from vascular disorders and seborrhea. It happens more often in women than men, and between the ages of 40 and 60. Difference between rosacea and acne vulgaris is lack of comedones. The lesions are more prominent with stress, tanning, heavy foods, alcohol, and endocrine disorders.

 

Cystic acne

It manifests itself with cysts filled with pus and sometimes even blood. It leaves marks on the skin like scars, spots, and discoloration.

 

Hormonal acne

Hormonal acne is similar to acne vulgaris. It affects over 25’s and is most often hormonal in origin, associated with the overproduction and overactivity of male or female hormones.

 

Neuropathic acne

It can affect face and body and shows as blackheads, pimples, and eruptions. The main characteristic of neuropathic acne is scratching at any skin lesions trying to eliminate them and achieve flawless skin.

Neuropathic acne has a psychological background, as the person affected believes that picking and removing skin lesions is the only effective solution and is the most important element of facial care.

 

Papular acne

This type of acne shows lumps or bumps on the skin, firm to touch and around 1 cm in size. Present on the face and body, particularly the T-zone and back. They are difficult to remove, cause discomfort, and can be itchy.

 

Back acne

Treating acne on the back and shoulders is more difficult, but doable. Proper skincare and professional acne treatments can help eliminate blemishes, scars, and discolouration.

 

Who can get acne?

80% of young people between the ages of 12 and 24 suffer from acne, and it’s also common in people over 30. It mostly affects the T-zone, chin, nose, and forehead. Acne can also show on the back, shoulders, neck, and décolleté. It’s a chronic condition that leads to seborrhea, excess sebum that causes numerous inflammatory conditions.

Sebum gives the skin the protective barrier and moisturises the skin. However, if the glands produce too much sebum, it will clog pores, block the pilosebaceous gland, accumulate bacteria and the hair follicles become keratinized.

 

Does acne only affect teenagers?

Acne is primarily associated with teenagers, but it also affects adults. Adult acne affects 54% of women and 40% of men over the age of 25. Even people who didn’t experience acne at a younger age. Breakouts are usually located on the lower face, chin, jaw, and neck. Large, painful, red, inflamed lesions are also common. Acne symptoms in adults come together with increased sebum and oil production, which gives a breeding ground for bacteria.

 

What are the causes of acne?

One of the main causes is hormonal imbalance or a genetic predisposition to acne. Other causes include:

• hyperkeratosis of hair follicles
• bacterial overgrowth
• hormonal imbalances
• poor diet
