Why do I have so many pimples on my face?

Acne is a common problem for each of us, especially in teenagers. However, if you are an adult but suddenly have a lot of acne on your face, you need to find out the cause to fix it.

What is acne?

Acne is considered a skin disease caused by the activity of the sebaceous glands under the skin. When the sebaceous glands are overactive, the sebum is blocked in the hair follicles, causing inflammation, forming acne.

Acne typically appears on the face, shoulders, back, and chest and is common in teenagers.

Acne is considered a skin disease.

Some types of acne are not as painful as blackheads, whiteheads, and pimples. However, there are also types of acne that cause us pain and discomfort, such as pustules, cysts, and nodules.

If acne only appears for a short time and does not cause much pain, we can treat it ourselves. But when acne appears more and more, and treatment has been ineffective for more than 3 months, we need to see a dermatologist for examination and active treatment.

We should see a doctor when acne appears a lot and the condition is serious.

Why do I have so many pimples on my face?

Acne on the face can be caused by high testosterone levels. This is also the reason why acne is common in teenagers.

During puberty, the hormone testosterone is active, stimulating the sebaceous glands in the skin, causing the skin to secrete more oil. This amount of oil and dirt will clog pores, causing inflammation and forming acne.

In addition to strong testosterone hormone activity, acne on the face can also be caused by using drugs containing corticosteroids, androgens or lithium.

Hormonal changes, poor lifestyle and diet habits can be the cause of acne.

The habit of using phones and some items such as helmets, face-lift belts... can be the cause of more natural acne. We need to clean the surfaces that come into contact with the skin regularly to ensure that we do not bring bacteria to the skin, and do not press objects on the skin for a long time to avoid clogging pores, causing acne.

Irregular eating and resting can also be the cause of acne naturally appearing on the face. Fatty foods, lack of sleep and stress will create conditions for the sebaceous glands to work more strongly, causing acne on the skin.
