👉 Aging pimples, also known as mature or post-acne acne, are a common skin concern that occurs as the skin ages. Over time, the skin's natural barrier weakens, leading to increased sensitivity and reduced ability to regulate oil production. This can result in the formation of enlarged pores, which become clogged with dead skin cells and excess sebum, creating an environment conducive to acne. Additionally, hormonal changes associated with aging can stimulate the sebaceous glands, further contributing to oiliness and breakouts. As collagen production decreases, skin elasticity diminishes, causing wrinkles and fine lines that can also affect the appearance of acne scars. These factors combine to make aging pimples more persistent and challenging to treat, often requiring a combination of topical treatments, lifestyle changes, and sometimes medical interventions to manage effectively.
