The Top Five Causes Of Acne

No one can say for sure what exactly causes acne but one thing all experts agree on is that acne does occur because of a combination of factors that occurs far below the skin. In order to provide an effective skin care for acne, all these factors have to be taken into consideration.

Contrary to popular belief, acne is not caused by what you eat, your facial hygiene or whether you exercise.

Deep within the pores of your skin, your sebaceous glands produce sebum, the oil that makes your skin moist. Everyday, your skin goes through a renewal process whereby the old cells at the top die off and sheds and is renewed by new cells. However, for some people, the dead cells do not shed evenly and eventually plugs the pores trapping the sebum and bacteria inside.

Because the opening is plugged, the pore will begin to swell as the sebaceous gland continues to produce more sebum and eventually forms a pimple.

Here are the top five causes of acne:

* Hormones. Hormonal imbalance is one of the top cause of acne for most people especially teenagers going through puberty. Androgen is a hormone secreted by body which stimulates the sebaceous glands to produce sebum. However, when too much androgen is pumped into the body, the glands get overstimulated. Acne flare ups during menstruation and pregnancy is also caused by excessive androgen in the body.

* Extra sebum. An overstimulated sebaceous gland produces too much sebum. As the sebum rises towards the surface of the skin, it mixes with bacteria and dead skin cells. This excessive mixture will eventually harden and block th access from the pores.

* Follicle fallout. An overstimulated sebaceous gland also causes the dead cells to be shed faster. These cells get trapped with the excessive sebum and form a plug in the pores.

* Bacteria. Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) is a natural bacteria that aids in the skin's natural sebum maintenance system. However, if the pores are blocked, P. acnes gets trapped with the extra sebum and begin to multiply rapidly, causing inflammation to the skin.

* Inflammation. As the number of P. agnes bacteria increases, your body will try to control this increase by sending out white blood cells to destroy the surplus bacteria. This causes the characteristic redness of pimples and acne.

I'm not a dermatologist. But I am a person who has suffered from severe Acne since I was a teenager. Throughout the years I had tried every known remedy and treatment known to mankind in my quest for a natural acne skin treatment that really would work. My search took my through all types of natural acne skin treatments from the most mundane milk baths to the extreme acne laser treatment.

Now almost two decades later, I am proud to have silky smooth skin and almost no acne scars. This was not the case before, my face looked worst than the surface of the moon. I was always covered with red patches and unsightly puss filled cysts. I truly pray that no one has to ever endure the mental, emotional and physical shame that I had to go through before.
