Acne in adults - Late acne - Acne Tarda
Late acne or acne tarda occurs more frequently in women, but also in men, from the age of 25 to 50. Many women are affected by late acne during the menopause.
The chin, cheeks and neck area are usually affected. Very often painful, inflammatory lumps (not blackheads) appear. The skin tends to be dry.
The main trigger is increased activity of the sebaceous glands due to a hormonal shift. Acne typically develops after stopping hormonal contraception (the pill) during or after pregnancy. Using too many or the "wrong" skin care products can also lead to acne in adulthood.
Treatments & therapies for late acne
Acne Tarda is stubborn, but there are effective treatment options that can be used to successfully treat late acne.

FAQs
Acne tarda refers to a form of acne that only occurs in adulthood or persists beyond puberty. It often occurs in women between the ages of 25 and 45 and usually appears on the chin, jawline, cheeks, or neck.
The causes are often hormonal changes, for example in connection with the menstrual cycle, stress, pregnancy, or hormonal contraceptives. Genetic factors, improper skin care, or certain medications can also play a role.
While acne during puberty is often associated with many blackheads, adult acne more commonly manifests as inflammatory, deeper pimples or nodules that persist longer and tend to occur in the lower part of the face.
At JUVENIS, an individual treatment plan is created, which may include various measures depending on the condition of the skin:
dermatological treatments and medical skin care
Microneedling to improve skin texture
Targeted therapies to reduce inflammation
The aim is to regulate sebum production, reduce inflammation, and improve the appearance of the skin in the long term.
The first step is a thorough dermatological examination to analyze the possible causes of the acne. An individual treatment plan is then drawn up, tailored to your skin and your symptoms.
Most treatments are well tolerated. Depending on the method, you may experience a slight tingling or warming sensation, but this usually subsides quickly.
Improvements in the skin usually occur gradually. Initial changes may be visible after a few weeks. Since the skin needs time to regenerate, several treatments over a longer period of time are often advisable.
Yes, untreated or severely inflammatory acne can lead to scarring. Early treatment helps to reduce this risk. Existing scars can be treated later using special methods.
Consistent skin care tailored to your skin type is important. Avoid heavily oil-based cosmetic products and try not to squeeze pimples yourself to prevent inflammation and scarring.
The costs depend on the treatment chosen and the individual therapy plan.
Prices start at around €190.
You will receive a detailed cost overview during a consultation.
Depending on the treatment, partial reimbursement by your health insurance provider may be possible. You will receive an invoice to submit.
