A Doctor Find Causes of Adult AcneThere are many causes of adult acne. At the age of nine (before adolescence) dihydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), an androgen, is produced by the adrenal glands. Other androgenic hormones - male growth hormone in female's system - like testosterone and dehydrotestosterone (DHT), take part in the pubertal period. These the body's hormones make the skin oil glands to produce more sebum (skin's natural oil).

This explains the fact that acne and oily skin are so common among teenagers. And, since boys have even more of those "male" hormones, the teen acne they have is more severe. Acne treatment is not an easy task when applied to teenagers due to frequent fluctuation of hormones. Good result can be achieved by first-line acne treatment products that include topical retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, and added by oral antibiotic.

Yet, the natural development of body brings forth intensive hormonal shifts that may turn the current acne treatment products into ineffective approach.
