So What is Acne? A lot of people come to me for acne consultations and continue to tell me " I don't know why I have acne now in my late 20s-30s" " I never had acne in high school" " It's just hormonal" Well I'm here to tell you that you can get acne at any age and any stage in life. Just because you didn't have "Active" breakouts in high school doesn't mean that you don't have acne-prone skin. I had the same mindset about acne once. Most people just think that acne is just a bacterial infection or because of hormones. I struggled with acne in high school. I went to the dermatologist and was put on several medications, topical creams and harsh cleansers and nothing worked for me. I believe it didn't work because they didn't have the right approach to acne.
