Acne-prone skin is a problem not only for the adolescents. Acne proneness is more and more often observed in people over 30 or 40 as the so-called “late acne”. Acne
changes result from hormonal disorders that interfere with normal operation of sebaceous glands. The excessive amount of the sebum secreted is accumulated in the pores, creating blackheads. Oily skin is very
prone to bacterial infections because the changed skin reaction enables penetration of microorganisms that feed on fat.
Remember:
Never delay a consultation with a dermatologist if acne changes
increase significantly – the best and permanent effects are achieved through use of proper medicine and specialist care.
Thoroughly cleanse your face with special preparations.
Use non-alcoholic toners.
Inflammatory changes can be dried with special gels or creams.
Avoid:
Preparations that intensely degrease and dry the skin, e.g. alcoholic toners, traditional
soaps; your skin may react to excessive dryness by increasing sebum production and the condition of your skin may get even worse.
Removing blackheads by yourself – you may have permanent scars.
Excessive exposition to sunlight – it may increase sebum production.
