Overview

Why is adult acne on the rise?

Triggered by hormones, acne can occur at any stage of our lifespan. The primary aggravating factor leading to adult acne is chronic stress. We all know that acute stress and temporary stress can cause breakouts from time to time. But chronic, continual stress increases hormone levels, which can lead to an increase in oil production.

One reason why adult acne is on the rise in the female population is because of the additional responsibilities that have increased women’s stress levels. The pressure to work outside the home to help maintain a steady family income while maintaining a functioning household is unique to this generation of women in their 20s, 30s and 40s. Combine workplace stress with household responsibilities, cosmetics that contain known skin irritants and monthly hormone fluctuations, you have a perfect breeding ground for the formation of adult acne.

Adult acne can be aggravated by internal and external factors. Internally, the psychological effects or adult acne can contribute to continued flare-ups and breakouts. When adults are frustrated, the signs of acne on their skin causes additional emotional stress, which contributes to a continued increase in over-activity of the sebaceous glands and leads to the continued cycle of breakouts. Externally, the need to “pick” or “squeeze” breakouts places even more acne-causing bacteria on skin.

Some dermatologists choose to place female clients suffering with adult acne on oral contraceptives. Oral contraceptives contain oestrogen , which can help decrease the androgen activity responsible for adult acne. While often effective, this does leave clients open to side effects that accompany oral contraceptives, including bloating, nausea and increased risk for blood clots and strokes. Dermatologists may also choose to put clients on a specific type of steroid, to reduce the stress related hormone reaction. However, steroids, taken internally or applied topically can aggravate acne, not to mention that any kind of prolonged use of steroids can have adverse effects on one’s health.

What are the four main factors that contribute to acne?

The primary catalyst of adult acne is chronic stress. Balancing personal and professional responsibilities makes this generation of adults the most time-compressed generation in history. This contributes to chronic stress: the constant, continued and heightened level of stress that throws our adrenal glands into overdrive, which in turn can boost sebum production, setting the stage for acne development. While stress creates the trigger for acne, there are four main factors that contribute to the development of acne: overactive sebaceous glands (the production of too much oil), dead skin cell accumulation, bacteria and inflammation.

What can be done to help treat, clear and prevent adult acne?

In order to control acne, we must interrupt the degeneration of the follicle by affecting the four main contributing factors by inhibiting the activity of overactive sebaceous glands, we not only eliminate the food source for the bacteria, but we also eliminate oily shine and create a more esthetically-pleasing appearance for the client. The following ingredients are known sebum-regulating agents: Nordihydroguaiaretic Acid, Niacinamide, Yeast Extract, Aesculus Hippocastanum (Horse Chestnut) Extract, Acrylates Copolymer (microsponges), Sarcosine and Zinc Gluconate. To control cell accumulation we need to stimulate natural exfoliation superficially as well as in the follicle lining. By exfoliating to remove surface cells that have not been shed, we can help eliminate the impaction of follicles which triggers the early stages of comedone formation. The following are known exfoliating agents: Salicylic Acid, Lactic Acid, Sulfur and Papain. By controlling bacteria on the skin’s surface and in the follicle, and the lipase activity, we can control the source of fatty acids that contribute to irritation.

To help keep inflammation caused by adult acne under control, we must consider the application of topical antiinflammatory repair agents, botanicals and humectants to help the healing process and soothe inflamed skin. The following are known anti-inflammatory and reparative agents: Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea), Panthenol, Camphor, Bisabolol, Allantoin, Echinacea Purpurea (Coneflower), Oat Extract and Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Extract.
