Why Adults Are Turning to Light-Based Acne Treatments
If you thought acne was only for teenagers—think again. More adults than ever are experiencing breakouts well into their 20s, 30s, and even 40s. The culprit? A complex mix of hormones, stress, diet, and environmental triggers that fuel inflammation and clogged pores.
And while adult acne is common, it can feel even more frustrating. You're balancing careers, relationships, and kids—why are you suddenly battling breakouts again?
At Summit Dermatology in Medford, we see this all the time, especially among women aged 25–45. Fortunately, treatment options have come a long way—especially with light-based therapies that gently but effectively treat acne at the source.
