SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE — Mar 18 — Here’s another bump in the landscape of economic meltdown: adult acne. Stress is a leading cause of breakouts, and there’s no shortage of that these days in the Oakland office of Dr. Katie Rodan. Many of her clients are either in the financial field or have husbands who are. Meanwhile, Manhattan dermatologist Cheryl Karcher is performing far fewer liposuctions or Botox injections but is seeing more patients than ever. “They’re all insurance patients for eczema, acne and warts; they’re all another hit from the immune system,” she says. READ FULL ARTICLE @ SFGATE CAAH Summary: The body’s nervous system and its hormone systems work together. At the point when the nervous system is agitated, hormone systems can react in a way that triggers an acne outbreak. Of course stress is not the only thing that could affect adults in a way that would cause the nervous system to send out these signals. Still though, it is a leading thing that does. The article urges that the thing to do to correct and prevent these breakouts is to, instead of focusing on treating the acne, manage your stress level. Also, there is advice given on what to do about the acne – such as the suggestion of cortisone shots and makeup ingredients to consider.

    Hello again Jessica,

    It's crazy right? I know. For ages, I was also confused about why the case would be that I would often break out right before an important engagement. This article was great in explaining just why that is, so I thought it was useful to share it. I am glad you enjoyed the post.
