So what we believe from this new study is that telomere that are too short are bad, telomeres that are too long are trimmed, and that telomeres that are just right are best.
Research suggests turns out that mice can get the disease but that their longer telomeres often protect them and produce a mild disease form or phenotype
Since sex hormones like testosterone are positively associated with acne AND with increased telomerase activity, the study probably just captured this effect.
