Acne Turmoil by Bay Harbour Med Spa

Teenage and adult acne continues to plague many throughout the world. Older acne treatment methods included tetracyclin which brought with it side effects such as suppresion of the immune system and gray teeh. Cleansing with alkaline bars of soap as well as alcohol based acne products were also recommended. The latter proved to be too harsh for the skin. Little was really known in the past about how to treat acne.
So what is the cause of acne?
Uneven hormonal levels are the root cause of all acne in human beings. Bacteria known as P.acnes is the easiest form of bacteria to treat when tackling acne. In teens, the hypothalamus plays a role in activating acne as it’s radar is set off when a boy becomes a young man and a girl becomes a young woman. In adult women, stress factors such as having a baby or menonpause trigger acne in adults.
A little more about how hormones play a role in acne……………………..
When the hypothalamus gland relays the message of stress to the pituitary gland, the adrenals glands are set off. In turn, the adrenal glands get excited and in a way “over react.” This sets off an over production of testosterone, which has a direct line to the sebaceous oil glands in the skin. Guess what the sebaceous glands produce? Oil! The last thing a person’s skin needs is over stimulation of the oil glands. This excess sebum produced gets trapped under the skin, becomes isolated and produces pustules known as pimples.
