I am a 44 year old female and I still have break of acne. What treatment options do I have?

I had a hysterectomy 2 years ago.I am a 44 year old female and I still have break of acne. What treatment options do I have?
At our skin care spa, we see more women in their 30s-40s with acne then we see teenagers. Its amazing how these days more women get acne then their kids do!!! I believe all the polution and additives in our foods is the cause of these problems. No need to worry though, many treatments invasive or not can help treat and slow down acne. Microdermabrasion helps slough off the dead skin and extract all the goo from the pores, chemical peels also do that, but there is down time for the healing process. Also topical or oral medications would be the last resort I say if nothing else works. Try seeing an aesthetician or dermatologist in your area to see what works best for your skin type. Also a good skin care regimen at home with high quality products should keep breakouts at bay! Good luck and hope your skin clears up soon.......I am a 44 year old female and I still have break of acne. What treatment options do I have?
having children will help with your hormone balance sometimes.
At 44, this is likely not acne, but Rosacea. If you see your doctor, there are treatments for it, including Metronidazole gel among other things.
