What causes acne to form on the face? I know it has nothing to do with what we eat, because I have read that.?

stress, hormones, not cleaning it, and heredity.

Don't pop 'em!  That can actually spread the problem. I kept my face clean, stayed away from all the "trigger" foods, took medication.... I hate to sound like a commercial but I've had acne for ...well...years and nothing ever worked until I got Proactiv.  It really works.

Oh my gosh, you mean there are others? Are you a pretty pale person like me? I get it a lot. I can get it from really hot (heat hot, not spicy hot) foods too - like soup.  I get it from wine sometimes too. Everyone asks me why my nose turns red.  The dermatologist just said it was blood vessels and due to my skin being so light, it looks a lot more prominent. I find that if I keep very well hydrated, it is a little less extreme.  So glad to know someone else has that problem too!

wash your face with some acne lotion and watch your diet, avoid greasy foods, junk foods etc. try to eat plenty of fresh fruit and drink plenty of water.

Acne is caused the same way as it is anywhere on your body: When your oil glands produce to much oil, it collects at certain points just under the top layer of skin, and dries up a little to form pus.

The exact cause of acne is unknown, but doctors believe it results from several related factors. One important factor is rising hormone levels. These hormones, called androgens (male sex hormones), increase in both boys and girls during puberty and can cause the sebaceous glands to enlarge and make more sebum. Another factor is heredity or genetics. Researchers believe that the tendency to develop acne can be inherited from parents. For example, studies have shown that many school-age boys with acne have a family history of the disorder.\n\nThere are many myths about what causes acne. Chocolate and greasy foods are often blamed, but research has shown that foods seem to have little effect on the development and course of acne in most people. Another common myth is that dirty skin causes acne; however, blackheads and other acne lesions are not caused by dirt.

not masturbation.....it's probably not acne....could be a rash from a cream or something that you came in contact with or it could be ingrown hairs.....if it doesn't go away in a few days see your doctor

Every acne product guarntees results so you need to search and find what works for you, otherwise washing your face and decreasing the amount of sugars and fats in your diet will help majorly. \n\nDont pick at your acne, that will only make it worse and give you bad scars. Hope i helped...

IF sitting in front of the computer constantly causes acne, it's probably because the "sitter" is constantly touching their face, which transfers bacteria, which causes acne.  If they have some sort of anticeptic wash and cotton at their station, and clean their face, on and off, while they're sitting there, I'll bet they wouldn't have as much acne...also, a pump bottle of waterless hand sanitizer, like Purell,  is good....you should keep your hands clean....there's a ton of bacteria that collects on a keyboard!

I think being that you are 43 and never had your face break out before, I would go see a dermatolgist.  It might not be acne....

no, not at all true.\nPrevailing wisdom in the dermatology community is that diet and acne are not related. Of course science is never a 100% reliable enterprise. But at this time, there is no evidence that chocolate, sugar, oil, milk, seafood, or any other food causes acne. Some people absolutely insist that a certain food causes acne for them, or that a specific acne diet works for them. In this case, doctors sometimes recommend that they avoid that food or follow that diet. Regarding chocolate specifically, several studies have been performed, and the answer to "does chocolate cause pimples?" is a resounding "No".

Where does your acne occur.. which part of your face does it appear on?\n\nYou should be able to get rid of your acne problem after doing a detox as acne on the face is usually linked to a lack of detox on the part of some of your body parts.\n\nHowever, as for your skin.. since it only gets dry after washing.. the problem could lie with the facewash that you use.\n\nIf you use a facewash that has TOO high or TOO low PH value, he will destroy the sebum on the top layer of your skin and thus making you feel as if your skin is dry and taut.\n\nYou may want to change brands in that case.

Nope, but you will start enjoying c o c k...Just kidding. Food will not determine the texture of your skin dear. Some may help to produce acne that's all....
