Is it normal to have acne at 26

69% Normal
13 Comments

I have acne and acne scars all over my face and body. Just pockets on my face. Every time i pop a zit another will appear the next day. Why do I still get such bad acne? I even pop my zits in class and the teacher has to ask me to leave. Women refuse to talk to me and people laugh at me when I walk through the halls. How can I get my nasty face cleared up so I finally have sex and be a man. I'm not even allowed in restaurants and my family refuses to eat meals with me.

        i apologize. it's not my intention to make fun of you at all. that's the correct terminology. i suffered as well and eventually had to go on accutane and it cleared right up. sorry if it came off that way. you should see a dermatologist and they could even give you something topical that could help - accutane if it's really bad and won't get better.

    Dude,you're 26 and you don't know anything about acne taking into account that you have it? I suppose you have acne from an early age like the majority of people. First of all, it is normal to have acne at 26. Some people have acne even at 40. Second of all,acne needs a lot of care and NEVER pop your zits!!! This is why you have scars. Wash your face twice a day with face wash for oily/acne prone skin and after that apply an acne treatment lotion,such as benzoperoxide. Go to the dermatologist of course! He will give you medication. There are also a lot of homemade masks based on honey,cinnamon,aspirine,baking soda that along with a treatment give very good results. But remember,it is important to find out the cause of acne in your body wich might be hormons or something else. Only a doctor can help with that. Cheers!

    I like how we now have someone posting a handful of stories just so he can troll the people who comment on them.

    This sounds like a real struggle for you. If I were in your place, I go see a dermatologist. Having had a huge lesion - big inflamed tender sore - on my left eyelid, A good skin docto is really the best way to go.

    I had adult acne at 25, I saw a skin specialist who told me that it wasn`t normal at that age. i had to have treatment for it. I inherited it from my mother, & iv`e never forgiven her for giving it to me. It`s a shame that your`e not female because they could treat you with oestrogen therapy.

    Go see the dermatologist, it's not normal. What you eat has a lot to do with that, by the way.

    Nobody laughs at somebody for having acne and your comments are completely ridiculous. Obvious troll is obvious.

    1. Go smimming at the beach everday the salt water will clean your skin.

    2. Never wash with soap any kind of soap it will just clog the poars.

    3. This is the hard one. Stop cranking your own handle and get as much P in the VG action as possible. Sounds stupid I know but it's a hormonal thing.
