What are the causes of pimples and acne on the back?

The causes of blemishes on the back can be varied and range from genetic and hormonal factors to external influences.

#1 Genetics and hormonal causes

Acne can arise from a hereditary predisposition. If one of the parents suffered from acne during puberty, the child is more likely to suffer from it too. Closely linked to genetic predisposition are hormonal causes of pimples and acne on the back, which are primarily due to male testosterone. Testosterone stimulates the sebaceous glands to produce sebum, but if the pores are clogged, pimples and acne are very likely to occur. This hormonal imbalance often leads to stubborn blemishes and acne on the face, shoulders and back.

#2 Sweat and lack of hygiene in the gym

Heavy perspiration and excessive sweat production can also lead to acne on the back and shoulders, especially when clothing made from synthetic fabrics is worn close to the body. Sweat clogs the pores and allows dust or dirt to adhere to the skin more easily, which further encourages the development of stubborn blemishes.

#3 Stress

Stress is not usually a cause of acne, but can promote existing acne in a negative way. Stress affects male hormone production and can lead to more pimples on the back and worsen existing acne.

#4 The wrong diet

Diet can have a direct impact on the formation of acne and pimples on the back

Men who are prone to persistent blemishes should avoid certain foods. In particular, extremely sugary foods and soft drinks as well as flavor enhancers (e.g. glutamate) should be avoided and the consumption of coffee, alcohol, cow's milk and pork should be greatly reduced.

#5 The wrong skin care products

The use of particularly oily skin care products for dry skin can also lead to pimples and acne on the back. If you are prone to blemishes on your back, you should avoid particularly rich body lotions and use a light body milk instead.

What can men do to avoid and get rid of pimples and acne on the back?

MR HANDSOME has put together six useful tips to combat annoying back acne and pimples on the back.

Tip #1: Cleanse the body with the right products

With the right body care products, you can cleanse blemished skin on the body just as effectively and deep into the pores as on the face. It is important that you use skin-friendly and clarifying products with the right ingredients for blemished skin.

Tip #2: Use a body scrub regularly

Using a body scrub once or twice a week is a very effective way to remove dirt and excess sebum from the skin pores. A body scrub removes dead skin cells that clog pores and are responsible for the formation of blackheads and pimples. It is important that men use a body scrub for their back and not a facial scrub. Body scrubs have thicker and larger exfoliating grains and cleanse the body skin particularly thoroughly and effectively.

Tip #3: Maintain a healthy lifestyle

The health of the skin depends largely on a healthy lifestyle. Men who are prone to acne and stubborn blemishes need to pay particular attention to hydration and cultivate healthy eating habits. Certain dietary habits can have an anti-inflammatory effect and should be incorporated into your diet. These include: Flax oil (e.g. with salads), fish with plenty of omega-3 fatty acids (e.g. salmon, herring, mackerel), plenty of vegetables and ginger. A healthy intestinal flora also has a positive effect on the appearance of the skin and should be supported by fiber-rich foods. Wholemeal products and plenty of fresh vegetables are particularly suitable. Fruit can also be consumed in moderation. However, due to the high fructose content of certain types of fruit, you should eat significantly more vegetables than fruit.

Tip #4: Wash bed linen and towels regularly

In order to prevent the proliferation of bacteria, it is important that bed linen and towels are changed and washed regularly. It is advisable to add an antibacterial hygiene rinse aid to the laundry and to use a mild and fragrance-free detergent.

Tip #5: Avoid strong sunlight

If the skin and existing acne in particular are exposed to the sun, this increases the risk of hyperpigmentation occurring as well as accelerating the inflammatory process. UV rays also promote the formation of pronounced scars. When sunbathing, it is therefore important to protect the body with sunscreen (preferably sun protection factor 50).Tip #6: Use the right skincare routineIf you have problems with pimples on your back or stubborn back acne, we recommend a skincare routine consisting of a high-quality soap for the daily shower and the use of an exfoliating soap once or twice a week to thoroughly cleanse the clogged pores and remove dirt and bacteria. Simply replace your daily soap with the exfoliating soap once or twice a week and your back will make significant progress within two to three weeks!
