Modern-day job related stress, pollution, poor nutrition and bad cosmetics are among the major contributing factors. A common case of adult acne consists of blackheads and whiteheads, while others developed inflamed acne papules or pustules. Severe cases require proper medical attention. For the majority cases of mild acne, eventual healing may come naturally, but it will happen much sooner, consistently and with chances of non-recurrence using good sensible skin care. The main function is drying up the skin.
Common complaints are side effects such as itching and blotchiness.
The drying is also a major problem for adult. A dry outer layer of skin leads to easy creasing and formation of fine lines and wrinkles.
