Acne: Not Just a skin problem

According to different sources, 85-90% of all teenagers suffer from acne vulgaris, cutaneous disease commonly known as "acne". This is the reason for acne, such as retainers, is generally associated with puberty and adolescence, as a sort of rite of passage to adulthood. We can easily see in the movies, where young clumsy of 13 and 14 are shown often with skin and teeth away from perfection.
For our adolescent personality this probably means feel inferior and fight with our appearance during high school. Teenagers with acne are more likely to be abused, and receiving bromeados cruel nicknames. In addition, the side effects of most anti acne remedies are usually terribly embarrassing and make jokes, far from disappearing, worse.


For the lucky few whose parents have money, our teenage years with acne probably result in many trips to different dermatologists and endless shopping creams and antibiotics.
But - we all say - okay. Eventually happen. Soon we become adults and - magically - our acne disappear.
That is, unless you're part of the unfortunate percentage of people continue to have acne even in adulthood. In fact, acne affects 25% of men and 50% of adult women at some point in their lives. The explicit abuse and cruel nicknames may be reduced, but acne can severely affect the life of an adult, no matter how "adult" and "mature" appear to be his companions.
Acne outbreaks usually last about five years since its first appearance. After that, its effect dissipates or worsens. And there is no way of knowing what type of acne you have until end of five years - after that, you'll be ecstatic with happiness or starting all over again, again at the beginning.
And now, for some reason, the number of adults with severe acne is increasing greatly. Dermatologists call this an "epidemic", the old rule of waiting until 20 to make your acne disappear completely expired. More and more patients entered the 20 and 30 are rising and can not believe what the mirror reflects them. And so, acne is no longer a rite of passage teenager. Acne has become widespread skin disease which affects one in twenty people worldwide.
