What is acne?
Acne is a very common skin condition, and most of us will have experienced it to varying degrees! Most people think of acne as a condition, which affects the Young, however, getting rid of acne is not that easy and can last well into your late twenties or even thirties! For some, the scars left by acne will be a painful life-long reminder. Acne can be an embarrassing issue, affecting relationships, confidence and the mental health of sufferers.
Why does it happen in the first place? At puberty our body starts to produce hormones called androgens. These cause the enlargement and over-stimulation of the sebaceous glands. The extra sebum (a natural oil that lubricates your hair and skin ) which the sebaceous glands produce, mixes with dead skin cells and bacteria on the skin's surface. This leads to the formation of blocked pores, where bacteria multiply and cause skin inflammation, leading to the spots associated with acne.
What are the different types of acne?
TYPE 1 Mild Acne:
Opened and closed blackheads, which are small and cover small areas. There are no inflammatory lesions and no marking.
TYPE 2 Acne Comedonica (Moderate Acne):
Blackheads are mainly open. Spots and some pimples. Spots are small and granular. The lesions may be inflammatory. No markings.
TYPE 3: Acne Papulopustulosa (Severe acne):
Spots and pimples. The pimples are yellowish and swollen. This aspect is accentuated by breaking the wall of the follicle. The nodules are small, full of knots visible by contact. Scars may appear.
TYPE 4: Acne Congobata (Serious Acne):
Blackheads and some spots, lots of pimples, nodules, cysts and abscesses. It is a serious but not very common form of acne.
Who suffers from acne?
Acne affects young adults the most, but can also be a problem for older people (adult acne). It usually starts in puberty, between ages 12 and 14; more than 90 per cent of teenagers have acne. Approximately 1 in 20 women and 1 in 100 men aged 25 to 40 continue to be affected by acne, or develop it at this age (late-onset acne). Did you know! Newborn babies can get acne in the first few weeks or months of life. Women are generally affected at a younger age, the peak severity being between ages 17 and 18, while men peak between 19 and 20 years old. Men tend to be worst affected by this skin problem because they produce more testosterone.
