I have acne on my face at the age of 40

If a normal person develops skin diseases such as acne on his face, it usually appears around puberty. But it is not entirely correct to say that acne appears during adolescence, because some people find that they are almost 40 years old and still have acne on their face. At the age of 40, the causes of acne on the face are much more complicated than those during adolescence, because acne during adolescence is mainly caused by changes in body hormones. So what are the causes of acne at the age of 40?

With the arrival of puberty, due to various problems in life and diet, acne has repeatedly grown, which has greatly affected the beauty of our face and sometimes even led to a low self-esteem. Therefore, we must correctly understand the causes of acne in order to better fight acne.

Methods/Steps

1. Endocrine disorders. The main reason for acne on the face is endocrine disorders. When endocrine disorders lead to an increase in male hormones, sweat pores will become larger and the skin will become relatively rough, which will lead to more oil secretion, thus creating the prerequisite for the reproduction of acne bacteria.

Tips: If it causes endocrine disorders in the body, you can adjust the endocrine system. It is recommended to go to a relevant dermatology hospital for treatment;

2. Bad work and rest habits. Often this bad work and rest habit is also the reason why acne keeps growing. Staying up late for a long time can easily lead to endocrine disorders in the body and cause the growth of acne.

Tips: Pay attention to maintaining good work and rest habits, go to bed early and get up early, so as to have good skin;

3. Not paying attention to personal hygiene. For example, if you don’t like to wash your hands, often touch your face with your hands, and change your bed sheets and pillowcases irregularly, it will easily lead to the proliferation of acne bacteria in the hair follicles, thus causing the growth of acne;

Tips: Pay more attention to your personal hygiene, wash your hands frequently, change your bed sheets and quilt covers regularly, etc.

4. Irregular diet. For example, in daily life, frequent overeating, frequent consumption of fried foods, onions, garlic, peppers and other irritating foods can easily lead to stimulation of various factors in the body, leading to the growth of acne;

Tips: Develop good eating habits, eat more vegetables and fruits to prevent constipation and indigestion;

5. The body's immunity decreases. As you can imagine, when the body's immunity decreases, our skin's disease resistance naturally decreases, which makes the skin more susceptible to infection with Propionibacterium acnes, leading to the growth of acne.

Tips: Pay more attention to the nutritional combination, eat more vegetables, fruits and foods rich in protein to improve the body's resistance;

6. Too much pressure in life. Nowadays, the fast-paced life has led to the gradual increase of our life pressure. Various pressures in life and work have led to the disorder of work and rest, and we are often in a state of tension, which has caused the acne on our faces to gradually grow wildly.

Tips: Life is stressful, so you should learn to relax, for example, you can go out for a trip, go hiking, etc., to make yourself feel more open-minded;

7. Kidney yin deficiency. People with this body type have oily skin, which can cause clogged skin pores.

Tips: Pay attention to skin cleaning, eat more vegetables and fruits, and stay up late less;
