我十几岁时没有粉刺。我偶尔会和大多数人一样在他们的青少年,但不严重。我不需要使用任何特殊的局部产品来保持我的皮肤明显——一个简单的药店为油性皮肤清洁剂技巧很好。我的护肤运气期间通过我的大学时代。然后,我22岁。
这几乎是令人印象深刻的速度有多快我的皮肤情况了。一个月后我的22岁生日,我的皮肤开始不受控制地爆发,比以往任何时候都更。我忽略了它,把它写侥幸反应一些新产品我测试,或由于压力太大(我有很多),或只是一个非常糟糕的荷尔蒙粉刺——但它并没有消失。
![Two years ago, my acne presented itself in uncomfortable, red, cystic pimples around my jawline and some on my cheeks — hardly any popped up on my forehead or around my mouth. At the time I was working as a fashion and beauty editorial assistant (my first job out of college), and to say I was under a lot of stress is putting it very lightly. By the nature of my job, I had access to tons of skin-care products, but nothing I tried helped clear up my acne. That job stress, combined with the stress of having the worst skin of my life, put me at a low point. I had this idea in my head that because I work in the beauty industry, I shouldn't be experiencing skin issues like this and that it somehow meant I was bad at my job.
Finally, after a few months waiting around for the issue to go away on its own, I visited my dermatologist. My derm confirmed what I was already thinking: I was experiencing hormonal breakouts, most likely aggravated by stress; common for women in their early 20s. (After talking it over with my mom, I found out she too had an issue with this around the same age.) I was prescribed two topical products, an acne cream for the morning and a retinol cream at night to help increase cellular turnover and decongest my pores, along with spironolactone, an oral medication traditionally used for high blood pressure but is now a dermatologist go-to for fighting persistent hormonal breakouts. 两年前,我的粉刺出现不舒服,红色,囊性痘痘在我下颌的轮廓和一些在我的脸颊——几乎没有任何突然出现在我的额头上或在我的嘴。当时我是一个时尚和美容编辑助理(我大学毕业后的第一份工作),和说我承受了很多的压力把它很轻。通过我的工作的性质,我能获得大量的护肤产品,但是没有我试着帮助清理我的痤疮。工作压力,结合应力的最糟糕的皮肤我的生活,让我在一个低点。我有这个想法在我的脑海里,因为我在美容行业工作,我不应该经历这样的皮肤问题,它在某种程度上意味着我不擅长的工作。最后,几个月后等待问题自行消失,我参观了我的皮肤科医生。真皮证实了我已经思考:我正在经历荷尔蒙皮疹,最有可能加重压力;常见的女性在20岁出头。(跟我妈妈谈了之后,我发现她也在同一时代的问题)。医生给我开了两个局部产品,粉刺霜的早晨和晚上视黄醇奶油有助于增加细胞营业额和减轻我的毛孔,连同螺内酯,口服药物通常用于高血压但现在皮肤科医生进行战斗持久荷尔蒙痘痘。](https://media1.popsugar-assets.com/files/thumbor/O9OtftEnTpzDWInOoS1Lu7_WNOY/fit-in/1024x1024/filters:format_auto-!!-:strip_icc-!!-/2020/05/18/866/n/1922153/2e8b670d2c210665_2018-10-28_12.35.17/i/Two-years-ago-my-acne-presented-itself-in-uncomfortable-red-cystic.jpg)

![I followed the regimen my doctor gave me for months and saw very little improvement, which resulted in her upping my dosage of spironolactone. This was discouraging, but I stuck with it. That's when I finally saw some changes in my skin and fewer new pimples popping up. The issue was still far from solved, but it was progress. This went on for about six months and, little by little, my skin got better. I didn't love that I was on an oral medication for my skin because I typically try to avoid taking necessary medications, but it was the only thing that was working, and I was desperate.
In the spring of 2019, I started a new job as a beauty editor (one that I absolutely loved), and the decrease in stress paired with the oral medication helped my skin clear up almost completely, save for the occasional breakout here and there, and of course, those pesky acne marks that are left behind for months after a zit goes away. I know that acne is completely normal, but my self-esteem went back up once my skin cleared. 我跟着方案我的医生给我几个月,看到很少的改进,导致她提高我螺内酯的用量。这是令人沮丧的,但是我坚持下来了。当我终于看到一些变化在我的皮肤和粉刺出现减少。这个问题还远未解决,但这是进步。这样的状况持续了大约六个月,渐渐地,我的皮肤变得更好。我没有爱,我是口服药物治疗我的皮肤,因为我通常尽量避免采取必要的药物,但它是唯一的工作,我很绝望。在2019年的春天,我开始一份新工作作为一个美容编辑(我绝对爱),和减少压力配合口服药物帮助我的皮肤几乎完全清理,除了偶尔的爆发,当然,那些讨厌的青春痘痕迹,留下青春痘消失后几个月。我知道痤疮是完全正常的,但我的自尊之后回到我的皮肤了。](https://media1.popsugar-assets.com/files/thumbor/Ch9UKd4pZuUE6BzSiqFlTX3tUIk/fit-in/1024x1024/filters:format_auto-!!-:strip_icc-!!-/2020/05/18/866/n/1922153/66a953fd56082a5f_2019-01-26_12.11.39/i/I-followed-regimen-my-doctor-gave-me-for-months-saw-very.jpg)

![Fast-forward to today, I often go makeup-free (something I never thought I'd be able to do two years ago). That's not to say I still don't break out — I just woke up with a new zit last week on my chin — but I have a whole new appreciation for both my clear skin and acne. 快进到今天,我经常去表演系(我从来没有想过我能做的事两年前)。这并不是说我还是不打破,我只是醒来新的青春痘上周我的下巴,但我有一个全新的欣赏我清楚皮肤和粉刺。](https://media1.popsugar-assets.com/files/thumbor/BRyXytWw8-0cHW4ZKL3xJGjY9cg/fit-in/1024x1024/filters:format_auto-!!-:strip_icc-!!-/2020/05/18/866/n/1922153/f44cca032819971d_zit-happens-01/i/Fast-forward-to-today-I-often-go-makeup-free-something-I-never.jpg)
