Reasons why adults do not seek treatment for acne: a survey of university students and staff.
Background: Acne can be a highly debilitating disease. There is a high prevalence in adults, yet treatment rates in this population are low.
Objectives: An online survey was created to determine the main reasons why adults with acne do not seek treatment.
Methods: University students and staff 20 years of age and older were emailed a link to an online survey that asked them if they have facial acne, if they see a provider for it, and how they self-treat their acne.
Results: 1,136 complete surveys were returned. Top reasons for not seeing a provider include not being bothered enough to seek treatment (n = 418, 53.7%), believing that their acne will eventually resolve on its own (n = 351, 45.1%), concerned about costs of treatment (n = 274, 35.2%), and currently satisfied with over-the-counter (OTC) treatment (n = 261, 33.5%).
Conclusion: Most adults with acne do not see providers because they are not bothered enough by it or are satisfied with OTC treatments. However, of the population that has acne and does not seek treatment, a significant portion (n = 234, 30.1%) indicated it was for a reason that could be classified as a treatment barrier.
