Who gets acne?

People of all races and ages get acne. It is most common in adolescents and young adults. An estimated 80 percent of all people between the ages of 11 and 30 have acne outbreaks at some point.

For most people, acne tends to go away by the time they reach their thirties; however, some people in their forties and fifties continue to have this skin problem.

It was medically proven by Dr Herzog that up until we reach the age of 16, we generally can expect to have between 98 – 100 Oxygen pressure in the skin both on the face and the body.

By the time we reach the benchmark ages of 24 - 30, our oxygen pressure levels in the face alone, rather than the body, has dropped a massive 30% and is down to around 70. From then on in this pressure slowly drops as other factors help to diminish O2 pressure.

You can therefore see conclusively that deterioration in Oxygen pressure has a direct link to an increase in acne and breakouts.
