| I am nearing 30 yrs old myself and have battled acne since a teenager. I go through periods of time where my skin looks better than other times, but i've never had a period of completely clear skin. While most skincare products out there are targetted towards teenage acne, there are only a few that aim towards acne + aging. Skinceuticals has a line called "blemish & age" which is meant for acne and aging, but even with this line i find that it gets quite drying. I have seeked a naturopathic doctor to help me because i've tried endless amount of products with no real cure. My naturopath says that a reflection of the skin is like a mirror of what is going on inside. Acne in adults means some sort of imbalance (if your hygeine is good). For me it is hormonal imbalance. I am booked for an ultrasound to see if i may have "polycystic ovarian syndrome". Many women who suffer from acne as adults may have PCOS. A lot of our hormones get released via the ovaries. If something is blocking it's proper release, there would be an inbalance of hormones and therefore causes such things like acne, mood swings, painful menstral cramps etc. |
