Sometimes in this hormonal change, there is a possible overactive hormone, which triggers a danger signal to one of the glands that provide oil to the skin. To protect itself, the skin absorbs more than what is really required. The balance of the oil it received is released on to the skin.



Since skin breathes, its own function misinforms it of an abnormality. The White Blood Cells in your body, which are antibodies in the sense that they are the Marines of the body rush to protect that area. And you have got what you have got. It is a traumatic experience for most of the youngsters who are between the adolescent and teenager.

For that is the time, when they want to look good, feel good, and join in the fun that is best at that age. Having such a condition as described, makes them feel abnormal, and therefore they tend to shy away from normal contact with others of their own age. Some become so conscious that it causes mental stress.

This disappears as the hormones adjust themselves after their transit. So it is question of time generally speaking. The best way of course to help yourself would be to bathe, twice a day, with a soft soap, comprising natural vitamins, and more of moisturizers, used with HOT water. Hot, means that degree of temperature of water you're your body can take. Otherwise you could scald yourself. That problem we do not need now.

Please try to avoid squeezing those pimples or acne, or try to dislodge them. You would be causing more harm to your skin than otherwise. If you do, you have the chance of having getting another scar on your face. It is because of change from childhood to teenager status.. Be confident of yourself and no self pity please. Don't shy away from accepting what you have. Be intelligent about it, not ignorant. Try the Internet and find out more information about this condition.

If it persists, then you see a dermatologist, who should normally be recommended by your family physician. There are a number of lotions and creams which help oily skin. These are best prescribed by the dermatologist.

While it is most common in people of your age, it also occurs in adults. Use of drugs, birth control pills, other drugs, and both prescription and off the shelf medication has been identified as possible ?triggers? for this condition. Researchers are still trying to find out how, why, where and when.

Till then, choose the natural way, and talk to your dermatologist. If under emotional stress or trauma, take help by becoming a member of a society of people like you. If somebody doesn't talk to you because of your problem, the loss is his. Just wait. It's not the end of the world. Cheer Up!
