Why Regular Acne Treatments Stop Working

• Unfortunately, nearly 50 million Americans suffer
  from acne. Many people believe that it is a
  condition that only affects adolescents. While
  this is partly true over three-fourths of young
  adults endure it 95 of people experience acne
  at some point in their lives. Yet, although so
  many people suffer from acne, there are many
  misconceptions about why acne arises and what can
  be done to stop it.

Common Misconception

• We all see acne commercials on TV showing
  graphics of our pores getting clogged and the
  resulting blackheads and bumps. These images can
  often be misleading and scary. Most adults about
  to start an acne treatment imagine that acne is
  caused by clogged pores and bacteria, what they
  eat, how often they wash their face, or their
  type of makeup. While clogged pores, bacteria,
  diet, dirt and cosmetics can contribute to the
  problem, they are often just the symptoms to a
  deeper underlying issue.

• Instead, the true source of the problem is
  something that all of us have hormones.
  Specifically, it is the hormone DHT
  (dihydrotestosterone) and its effects on your oil
  glands. An enzyme located in the skin, called
  5-alpha reductase, transfigures testosterone into
  DHT. The DHT then attaches itself to receptors in
  the oil glands. The stimulation oil gland by DHT
  spurs disproportionate creation of oil in
  unhealthy amounts. This glut of oil fills the
  skins pores and clogs them causing white heads
  and black heads and eventually bacteria that is
  always present on the skin grow within them
  causing the inflammation we know as acne.

 Regular Acne Treatments

• As a result of this widespread misconception, the
  most common acne solutions treat the problem
  cosmetically. They try to go in and kill the
  bacteria that exist and open up the pores for
  which clears existing acne but unfortunately this
  is only a temporary solution. While these acne
  products may deal with the existing acne they do
  nothing to solve the underlying issue of DHT.
  This means repeated breakouts and in the long
  run, customers will be frustrated by these
  treatments lack of effectiveness.

Best Anti-DHT Acne Products

• Since killing the bacteria and opening the pores
  is not a long term solution many dermatologists
  prescribe treatments that help counteract DHT in
  addition to regular acne medications. Birth
  Control for women is the most common of such
  treatments followed by Aldactone, a blood
  pressure pill that also blocks DHT. Another way
  to make the oil gland resistant to DHT is
  Accutane. It permanently shrinks the oil gland
  preventing it from over producing oil even in
  presence of DHT. All of these treatments require
  a prescription from a doctor and have potential
  side effects.
