Do adults get acne?

I've had acne my whole life it seems!! well, i got it when i was 14 and i'm 28 now, so yeah, adults can get it. For me, it's totally hormonal. (It gets worse around that time of the month.) It did get better during my pregnancy, though, and it's been a lot better since i had my baby. Be careful about what acne medicines you use when pregnant or nursing - some can be really bad for the baby. (Accutane should NEVER be used when pregnant!!!)

Yes - I have a stressful job normally but when I get really stressed out I break out (I'm 34). It sucks.

Are you kidding? Of course - anybody can get acne or have bad skin (young or old) - teenagers just tend to have worse acne because they're bodies have trouble with all the changes they go through.
