So what the common causes of acne?, Worldwide, is estimated that 60 million people suffer from

acne. Here is are the answers that I gathered for you as to "common causes of acne breakouts"



1) Food Causes Acne -Some people are likely to have acne outbreak with some diets like

carbohydrates and sugars. Consuming a diet high in oils, fats and sugars can interfere with your

hormonal balance. These types of foods are known to cause acne breakouts. A good diet for your

skin should include fruits, vegetables, skim milk, cottage cheese and lean meats.



2) Androgen Hormones -These are sex hormones and research shows that they rank to be the top

cause of acne. These hormones begin during puberty and this is the reason why most individuals

who are affected by acne are young people or teens. During menstruation or pregnancy, women

tend to have more of these Androgen hormones and this explains why pregnant women or a

woman who is on her menstrual cycle is more likely to have pimples on her face or sometimes

called facial acne outbreaks.



3) Stress causes acne -Yes stress causes acne outbreaks. Stress is related to production

hormones like cortisol which has been known to cause acne. When a person is stressed out, their

body develops different hormone levels. With these hormone changes, the body starts to produce

more oil to the skin. White heads, black heads and pimples types of acnes are caused by these

oils on the skin.



4) Heavy Makeups, Oily Makeups/Cosmetics -Heavy makeups are not good for your skin. They

cause clogging of pores and adds more oil to your skin. Is even more worse when someone put

heavy makeups on their oily existing skin! Moisturizers or cosmetics contains more than one

chemical like vegetable oils, alcohol, petrolatum and acids which contribute to acne breakouts.



5) Steroids and Specific Medications -It is wise to stop overusing vitamins. Vitamins are essential

to our skin but overusing them can cause acne. Examples of such vitamins are B1, B6 and B12.

Abuse or inappropriate use of steroids, especially anabolic steroids can lead to acne breakouts

because they stimulate sebaceous glands. Sebaceous glands present in the skin secrete a

substance called sebum into hair follicles and most of the skin.



6) Harsh and Rough Cleansing Avoid harsh and rough cleansing to your skin especially on the

face. The facial skin is extremely sensitive to rough cleansing, it can easily be damaged. This kind

of cleansing can damage the skin layers and spread infections. When cleansing your skin, use

lukewarm water. Water that is too hot can dehydrate your skin and too cold can dry your skin.



7) Picking, squeezing and Environmental issues -High humidity causes the skin to swell and

pollution of the environment can cause clogging of your pores. Avoid picking and squeezing

pimples or acne outbreaks as this can send infections deeper into the skin and cause scarring.



8) Heredity Factors -As I said earlier some causes of acne are inevitable. This is a good example

of a cause of acne that we can't avoid. Acne can be inherited and some serious acne causes such

as Cystic acne do come from heredity like through family members such as our parents and

grandparents.



9) Extra Sebum in the Follicle -When androgens stimulates sebaceous gland, it produces extra

sebum which mixes with dead skin cells and skin bacteria. This is a normal process but excess

sebum in the follicle increases the chances of clogging and acne. There are things that can lead to

production of excess sebum like anabolic steroids.



So these are the common causes of acne breakouts. The best way to minimize acne breakouts is

to take care of your body. There are popular products that can treat acne but some of them are not

as effective. If you have never had serious acne and all over a sudden you do, then is best to find

out what caused it because you may be dealing with something minor that you can take care of to

get rid of your acne. Get more information about acne and it's cure by visiting acne treatment
