TEENS and ACNE

-MY STORY-

Being a teen is hard enough and being a teen with severe acne is even harder... I started getting a bad skin condition when I was approximately 11, my skin was as red as a tomato, it was uncomfortable and worse of all I was teased for it. We didn't have the sort of income you can go see a dermatologist or to pay for medication to cure or at least minimize the breakouts. Today I'm 18 and I have acne scars... and trust me they are EMOTIONAL SCARS. I decided to start this blog to help kids and teens just like me fight acne at ease .

-CAUSES OF ACNE-

To be honest no one really knows what causes acne. Dermatologists and experts believe it's the high amount of the hormone called "androgen". Our androgen levels rise when we start to become older. The rising levels in androgen in our body is responsible for creating oil glands under our skin to grow. The more oil produced, the more cellular walls in our pores break down, causing bacteria to grow and infections to start. 

-TYPE OF SKIN PROBLEMS-

Here's a few of the skin problems we struggle with in our lives, what type do you have?

1. WHITEHEADS remains under the skin and is small.

2. BLACKHEADS are clearly visible, black and it's on the surface of our skin.

3. NOBULES are clearly visible also on the surface of our skin. They are solid and large pimples, it's also painful and are embedded deep under our skin. 

4. PAPULES are visible on the surface on the skin, they are usually pink and make small bumps.

5. CYSTS are clearly visible on our skin. They are filled with bacteria named "pus" and it's also painful. This can easily cause scars.

6. PUSTULES are clearly visible on the surface of our skin. It also contains "pus" but it's  at the top.

(The skin problem responsible for my "emotional scars" is 5. CYSTS.)

-TIPS FOR MINIMIZING BREAKOUTS-

1. -LOOK AT YOUR DIET- Some studies suggest that high amounts of sugar in your diet might make acne worse. However there's no evidence that chocolates or french fries are the responsible ones for acne.  

2. -RESIST TO TOUCH- Don't pop or pick at pimples it's not attractive besides it can only make breakouts and scarring worse.

3. -PERSONAL HI GENE-  No need to scrub your face with a rock just wash your face once in the morning and once in the night. And girls we should use water based foundation.
