Think all acne is the same? Think again.
Think breakouts are just a teenage phase? Think again. Acne presents differently at every stage of life and career! To truly treat it, you have to accurately identify it.
Here are 5 unique types of acne explained by Dr. Karuna Soni:
“McDonald’s” (Occupational) Acne: Caused by constant exposure to kitchen grease, oils, and intense heat. Frequent among chefs and fast-food workers.
Teenage Acne: Triggered by pubertal hormones, typically surfacing aggressively on the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin).
Neonatal Acne: Occurs in young infants due to maternal hormones.
Senile Acne: Affects older individuals, often appearing as stubborn blockages around the delicate eye area.
Drug-Induced Acne: Triggered internally by certain medications or supplements like high-dose Vitamin B12, steroids, or lithium.
