What causes acne on women's chest

Many people are confused. Aren’t pimples on the face? How can they appear on the chest? A doctor at Nanjing Hanfang Keyan Acne Treatment Center said that acne is not exclusive to the face, the chest and back are also high-incidence locations for acne.

Method/Process

1. Excessive sweating: Summer is a high-incidence season for chest acne, because the chest will sweat a lot in the hot summer, and sweaty clothes. If the sweaty clothes are not cleaned in time, they will easily breed bacteria and cause skin infection for a long time, providing a breeding ground for acne on the face.

2 Thin stratum corneum blocks skin pores: The thin stratum corneum is composed of 5-10 layers of dead flat stratum corneum cells, which are the result of continuous death and regeneration of epidermal cells. It is not easy for most people to exfoliate the skin on their chest and face. The thin stratum corneum on the chest will become thicker and thicker, causing the hair follicles to be blocked, resulting in inflammation of the hair follicles and the appearance of acne on the face.

3. Endocrine imbalance: Endocrine imbalance is a major factor causing chest acne. The endocrine system is an important component that regulates body functions and maintains a relatively stable body environment. Nowadays, people do not pay attention to diet control, consume too much spicy and irritating foods, and have irregular work and rest schedules, which lead to spleen and stomach dampness and heat, endocrine imbalance, and abnormal keratinization of the sebaceous glands of the hair follicles and hyperactivity of the sebaceous glands, resulting in acne on the face.

Acne on girls' faces is the most common nowadays, but acne also grows on other areas with abundant oil secretion. Many people are confused about the causes of acne and pimples on the chest.

1. Excessive sweating

It is now the dog days of summer, the temperature can only rise but not fall, and summer is the peak period for acne, because in the hot summer, the chest will sweat a lot, if the sweat is not wiped off in time, it is easy to breed bacteria, cause skin infection, and cause acne on the face.

2. Thin stratum corneum blocks skin pores

Many people only know how to remove the stratum corneum on their faces, but they don't know that the stratum corneum on their chests should also be removed regularly, which causes the stratum corneum on their chests to become thicker, causing the hair follicles to become blocked, resulting in inflammation of the hair follicles and acne.

3. Endocrine imbalance

Endocrine imbalance can also be one of the causes of chest acne. The endocrine system is an important factor in regulating body functions and maintaining a relatively stable body environment. Not paying attention to diet, eating spicy and irritating foods, and irregular work and rest can lead to endocrine imbalance.
