Hi everyone
Im in need of help please.
Basically im a 23 year old man.I had cystic acne in my teen which would scar my cheeks.I was on accutine for 6 months when i was 19 which stopped the acne and after a few sessions on microdermabrasion my scars cleared.
In the last month ive gone on a diet and have began doing weights and swimming 5/6 times a week.In the last 2 weeks ive began to get spots all of a sudden.There very different to the spots I used to get.They seem to have come out like scars ie. all of asudden there on my face but no bumps.
After fighting acne in my teens i really dont want to have to deal with this again,feeling very down to think its back.
Im wondering could it be anything to do with the chlorine in the pool or the weights or is my nightmate back again?/
Could be the intensity of your workout causing you to break out again... Influxes in the androgen/testosterone hormone can cause acne flare ups. More than likely, the workout routine is causing a hormone imbalance which is leading to the break out... Also, the chlorine can irritate acne prone skin with repeat exposure. Perhaps ramping down a bit on your workout can help, at least until you can regulate your hormones somewhat... Then you can step it back up... Good luck and keep us up to date on your progress...
