Causes of Acne Breakouts
If you discover that you recently suffer from acne breakouts, don’t worry, there are possible cures and treatment for this skin disease. If the cause of the acne breakout has been established, a solution is possible.
Everyone knows how it important cleaning your face daily is in regards to acne treatment. The same goes for all the other topical creams for acne available in the market, which kills germs and opens up blocked pores. These may provide temporary relief, but you will never experience acne free skin by only focusing on acne and their breakouts from the outside.
The real and main causes of acne breakouts are hormone imbalance, water retention and toxins. Hormones are chemicals that are produced by glands in the body and circulate in the bloodstream that control numerous body functions including sebum (skin oil) production and regulation. The hormones that are responsible for acne are called androgens. This is because androgens stimulate the sebaceous glands (glands in the skin that secrete oil to the surface of the skin.)
When you have too many androgens in the blood, your sebaceous glands begin to over-produce oil in the skin. You have to be clear that it is not only oil that will cause acne breakouts but it’s the initial problem you want to resolve.
The next part of the problem in acne breakout causes is toxins in the blood and lymph. When your liver and kidneys are not properly cleansing the blood and are overloaded, the liver is unable to properly 'deactivate' used hormones and remove them from the body.
The combination of oil, bacteria and toxins blocks pores causing acne breakouts. Inside the blocked pores also are bacteria which grow in a low-oxygen environment. This bacteria aggravates the skin condition and causes an inflammatory disease, otherwise known as acne.
For most teenagers, hormone imbalance occurs during puberty when the body is busy producing hormones for growth, maturity and reproduction. In case of adult acne, it predominately arises from the inability of the liver and kidneys to effectively eliminate excess hormones and toxins from the blood.
In order to cure your acne you have to be able to get your hormones into balance by feeding your body the key nutrients that aid hormone regulation in the glands and also strengthen the liver which is the other hormone regulatory system. This is key in acne treatment and prevention. You should also apply a topical treatment for the self healing of acne breakouts, this way you will avoid further blemishes while you are treating the main cause of acne.
