¡¡¡¡British research shows that acne sufferers¡¯ cells have built-in protection against ageing that is likely to keep them looking younger than their years.

¡¡¡¡These are caps on the ends of chromosomes that protect the DNA in them from damage, much like caps on shoelaces prevent fraying. Thought of as tiny biological clocks, telomeres get shorter as we age and eventually become so short that cells die.

¡¡¡¡Previous studies have found men and women with long telomeres tend to be biologically younger than those of the same age but with shorter ones. All in all, telomeres are considered so important that the scientists who discovered them seven years ago were awarded a Nobel Prize for medicine.
