Middle Age Women - Acne Be Gone!




Blackhead Removal ' Is It Worth The Trouble?
Blackheads ' those little black dots that clog up your pores ' can happen to anyone, and can sometimes stubbornly linger long after your acne has cleared up. Blackhead removal can be a tempting .....


For women who have suffered with acne since their teens and

they continue to suffer through adulthood. Middle age women take

heart! Acne be gone! It will be your time to finally ditch the

acne. But in the meantime what causes women to deal with acne

for so many years?



Hormonal imbalances are mostly responsible for acne in adult

women, and God knows us women have a lot of hormone imbalances!

Premenstrual, menses, pregnancy, and child birth all affect our

hormones. We spend half our life on the hormone rollercoaster.

And with that rollercoaster ride comes the dreaded acne.



If thats not enough oestrogen and testosterone imbalances can

easily occur from stress or medication. Something as simple as

having an IUD device or taking Depo Provera, both methods of

birth control, can lead to acne.



When the hormones are out of balance your body produces extra

sebum which is any oily secretion of the skin. This clogs the

pores and causes those dreaded zits.



Some women never have a pimple until they hit their thirties.

Talk about a real shock. This usually occurs when they decide

its time to go off the pill. Birth control helps balance

hormones and for many it keeps acne at bay. So it may not be

that they were ever immune to acne just that its been so long

they never realized they would have pimples.



Some vitamins can also cause acne. Vitamin B supplements and

Vitamin E creams are known to cause acne break outs. On the

other hand taking zinc orally has shown positive effects to

eliminate acne in studies.

BEAUTIFUL SKIN

Skin is one of the first parts of the body to show problems from toxins. The body essentially sees the skin as not as .....
There are other conditions that are often mistaken for acne.

Conditions such as acne rosacea, keratosis, or perioral

dermatitis are often confused as acne. If you are unsure what

you are dealing with make an appointment to see your

dermatologist.



There are three major reasons why adult women suffer from acne:

the pill; antibiotics; and vitamin A.



Long term antibiotic use causes us to develop a yeast infection

which lowers the bodys immune system and defences which can

result in acne.



Vitamin A treatments such as Retinol-A are double edge sword.

Initially they can cause outbreaks, but over time they will

effectively remove damaged layers of skin including acne scars,

as well as get the skin to form collagen which give you younger

looking skin.



Interesting by the time women reach their mid 40s they can

almost be guaranteed to become acne free. Its believed that our

female hormones have mellowed some by then, and we arent on the

hormone rollercoaster anymore. This is a welcome change for many

women!



If youre younger youll just have to find an acne medicine that

works and wait for your mid 40s to arrive. See theres something

good about being over 40.



The main thing is not to let your acne control your life. There

are plenty of treatment options to try and just persist until

you find the one that works!
