Teenage Acne Treatment - Teen Acne Causes and Information

Acne is a common problem and the most affected population is teenagers. Almost every teen will unfortunately suffer at least one breakout during their adolescent years.

The specific case and condition of acne depends on the individual, but most experience whiteheads, blackheads , and in more severe acne cases, cystic acne. Also common among teens is body acne or back acne that can affect the back, chest, and shoulders.

Fortunately, many teenage acne treatments have been created to deal particularly with hormonal and adolescent acne.

Causes of Teenage Acne

Teenagers experience a period of puberty in which their bodies undergo a great change in hormone levels. These hormones can cause a myriad of effects, such as growth spurts, moodiness, body hair, as well as the heightened activity of various body glands.

The sebaceous glands are one of these active glands and are responsible for producing sebum, an oily secretion that moisturizes skin and hair. Adolescent hormones cause these glands to expand and produce higher levels of sebum. Higher levels of sebum and heightened activity in the glands create risks for the development of acne.

Acne is due to injury to healthy cells within these sebum glands. Cells can be injured due to the force of sebum output, which is more common during periods of hormonal change. Further damage can be done by the hardening of sebum, or the mixture of oil and dead skin cells within the follicles. The damage triggers an inflammatory immune response that irritates and reddens the skin and can cause what we know as a pimple.

Acne may also have hereditary factors meaning that if your parent had teen acne or still suffers from adult acne, you will be at higher risk for acne during your teen years.

Teenage Acne Treatment

Teenage acne treatments come in many shapes and forms including topical spot treatment, acne creams, prescribed medications, and a variety of natural skin care therapies. Unfortunately there is no cure for acne and the success of skin care products really depends on each individual.

However, the most important thing is to be knowledgeable about the process of acne and how to choose a product that will successfully treat its root causes, not just its symptoms. You should not treat teenage acne with unnecessarily strong medications and treatments.

In many cases, acne will improve naturally with the passing of puberty and balancing of hormone levels. You should avoid harsh treatments that might damage skin cells long after the recovery of teenage acne. Instead, opt for natural types of acne treatment cream that target the biological factors of acne development.

Skin Friendly Diet

A smart diet can also aid in acne recovery. However, oily foods and a bad diet are not considerable risks in acne development as some might think. Hormone changes and sebum production are not linked to what kind of food you eat. Nevertheless, it is important to eat a healthy diet that has all the necessary vitamins and nutrients to keep your skin healthy.

During adolescence, especially, diet is vital as the body needs to be strong enough to grow as well as maintain a strong immune system. Additionally, healthy, well balanced diets tend to lower stress and consequently lessen gland activity and the risk of acne.

BIOSKINFORTE is one of many Biocutis acne skin care products that targets root causes of teen acne and treats the skin from the inside out. BIOSKINFORTE contains the organic serum of Helix Aspersa Müller and other botanicals that can naturally inhibit sebum production and remove dead skin cells as well as support the immune system at the site of cell damage in order to control bacteria and soothe inflamed skin.
