Acne isn’t just a teenage problem-it often follows people into adulthood. While teen acne is mostly driven by hormonal surges during puberty, adult acne may stem from stress, hormonal imbalances (like PCOS), lifestyle, or even unsuitable skincare products.
For teens, treatment usually includes mild cleansers, salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide-based topicals, and in some cases, antibiotics or retinoids under medical supervision.
Adult acne, especially in women, may require a more holistic approach. Along with topical treatments, hormonal therapy or oral medications may be recommended after a thorough evaluation.
At RuVan, we design customized acne treatment plans based on skin type and severity. These can include chemical peels, laser therapy, and acne scar treatments to not only clear existing acne but also improve skin texture and tone.
