Why would an adult start getting acne all of a sudden?
This is an embarrassing question. I am 23 years old and all of a sudden I started getting troubling acne. I use benozyl peroxide and salicilic acid to treat it with gentle moisturizer to balance the effect, but it’s not effective in making my huge zits go away. I also started getting them on my butt! Why would I start getting them all of a sudden? I work out and I eat pretty healthy. How do I make it go away? Please tell me some methods.

adult acne information.
don’t use any benzoyl peroxide, for sure….ie. proactive. it will make your skin worse.
well many factors contribute to that but hormones are responsible for the worst picture of acne ,well if topical treatment are not working for u u should start systemic drugs like antimicrobial agents and systemic steroids here are examples http://acnedestroyer.blogspot.com/2009/04/antimicrobial-therapy-in-acne-1.html and this also http://acnedestroyer.blogspot.com/2009/04/antimicrobial-therapy-in-acne-2.html
your answer is in the site i mentioned in my sources
I have had acne for most of my life and truly the best thing out there is Ivory soap. Twice a day, morning and night, is wonderful.
Now I recently purchased the mini xeno and have really liked the results on the more stubborn acne. It destroyed the pimple within hours. I couldn’t believe it! My best product is now the xeno. They offer your money back and it was well worth $85. I didn’t use it right the first few days and I messed up the counter so it’s not counting down! Not a bad thing since replacements cost so much! But the right way is to hold it on the zit for about 2 minutes. It leaves it slightly red but by morning the redness and the zit was gone and a few 90% gone.
try going milk free. i did and my acne cleared up within 1 week. I don’t have any milk drinks, or eat foods with milk in the ingredient/allergy list.
I never had acne as a teenager either…the odd pimple but not much.
I started breaking out at 30 years old…face and back…went on antibiotics but they were making me feel kind of sick…I finally tried this natural treatment and it worked…It has been 3 years since I had a breakout…it says it works in 3 days but it took about a week for me.

You probably got Rosea, it is adult acne. Sometimes you can get rid of it by taking fish oil. See your doctor, they have things you can take for it but the fish does work in some cases.
hm..my friend just hit 30, never had a pimple in her life. She started breaking out at 30 and it’s really ruined her skin. Probably a change in facial products or hair products. They’re mostly related to acne ( post teens ).
It is probably stress or chemical changes going on in your body.
Please try Nutragiena’s Acne Stress forumlas.
They work 10 times better and cost way less than ProActive.
Good Luck!!! Pizza face.. .Just Kidding… Stay beautiful!!!!
Most likely since your a woman it would be hormones. When your oil glands start over producing oil your pores get clogged and thus causing acne. Get a gentle face wash and gently wash your face for 20-30 seconds. Apply benzyol peroxide to your acne 2 times a day, it may take a month to see results.
Suddenly too much testosterone. Yes women have it too. Get a blood test for a hormone check. Then they need a reason for it. My daughter had great success with Accutane, low dose for nearly a year and VERY careful with it, but it certainly did the job.
Hormones? like pregnancy.
just a thought.
try taking a shower and cleaning your self pretty good
stress is said to be a cause but i noticed when i was sweating alot especially on my face or was rushing in the shower and not doin a great job of cleaning myself i got bad acne. just keep your skin clean as often as possible
increaese in oily foods, maybe a change in diet,
Could be stress, I use proactive or biore.
has to be stress.
could be stress or your diet thats my guess
maybe its chicken pox
stress…..
go get a spa bath.
or a seaweed wrap.
There are many causes. The best thing to do would be to see a dermatologist.
I have it too.
