Acne triggers and how to avoid them

Posted on: 29/Apr/2016 9:33:10 AM
Experts have said that acne is longer a teen problem. Unregulated diets, stress levels and lower sleep time cause hormones to rage, showing up on the face. However, there are other triggers. 

Too many skin creams and products may be a cause. Says a leading aesthetician, When we layer too many products on our skin, they could lead to clogged pores followed by acne. If you have a combination skin or if your skin is oily, you must double check your skincare regime.

Experts say, Stress is a serious threat to your skin health - everything shows up on the face as lines, pimples or spots. Stress releases cortisol and androgens that worsens acne issues. When people who have a genetic predisposition to it are stressed, they suffer from acne. Stress activates hormones way too much and they get edgy and jumpy, and hamper the body`s balance. Anxiety and depression are also manifested in pimples.

Skin inflammation can be caused by using soaps that have high alkaline levels. Says a cosmetologist, Make sure your skin cleansing routine is proper use a make-up remover, followed by a non-soapy face cleanser and then a toner. Our skin ph is 5.5, hence, excess use of alkaline soaps may trigger pimples.

Applying anti oxidants is necessary. Dermatologists say, Choose creams, lotions and serums that have antioxidants and go for treatments that can reverse free-radical damage. Antioxidants have no role in the occurrence of acne. But they contain vitamins like beta carotene etc, which will protect skin from tanning and regularise the free oxygen radicals.

Those who are susceptible to acne must avoid dairy protein and protein powders. These stimulate oil production that can trigger acne. Say dermatologists, Yes, dairy proteins can also trigger pimples. They contain hormones, which can activate or trigger the occurrence of pimples.
