Hormonal acne, more commonly known as adult acne, is a problem that affects mature skin. One of the main factors causing hormonal acne is hormonal imbalance. Unfortunately, as studies show, this type of imperfection more often affects women than men. Check and compare home remedies for hormonal acne with treatment methods available in our clinic.
Hormonal acne – how to distinguish from teenage acne?
Hormonal acne, unlike teenage acne, appears after the age of 25. Skin changes most often manifest themselves in the form of:
- pustules
- acne,
- other skin lesions.
The most common skin lesions characteristic of hormonal acne occur around the mouth and on the chin. Genetically determined hormonal acne appears unexpectedly. However, there are situations that contribute to the formation of skin damage, not only related to disturbances of estrogen and androgen hormones. Such situations include:
- menstruation or PMS
- constant stress,
- thyroid disease,
- unhealthy lifestyle,
- improper diet.
Often it is not enough to avoid stress or eat properly. Then it is worth seeking help from a dermatologist, endocrinologist or cosmetologist.
How to fight acne – are there home remedies?
Are you a fan of cosmetics, masks and skin care? Great! However, you should know that ordinary cosmetics and medicinal herbs available in pharmacies or online stores are not enough to fight hormonal acne. Care with specialized cosmetics should be a natural continuation of dermatological and endocrine therapy, as well as cosmetic procedures!
How to cure acne?
The treatment of steroid acne is carried out by various methods, the most common of which include dermatological or endocrine therapy consisting of pills and ointments, laser acne removal and special facial cleansing.
Our clinic offers professional procedures for hormonal acne, such as Alma Harmony XL PRO and Dermaquest skin cleansing, which will help you get rid of the problem.
Laser acne removal
Laser treatment using the Alma Harmony Pro-Acne platform works for all types of acne, from common to rosacea. The treatment involves the impact of a laser beam on all layers of the skin, reaching the deepest. As a result, it affects the skin and regulates its condition, eliminating factors that cause the formation of skin formations. The advantage of laser acne removal is safety. The device does not damage healthy tissues.
Laser treatment is intended not only for the face, but also for other parts of the body affected by acne. The Alma Harmony XL-Pro procedure is recommended for all skin types and is extremely short, lasting approx. 30 minutes.
DermaQuest skin cleansing
The DermaQuest procedure is a chemical peel that cleanses the facial skin. In our clinic, we perform two types of peeling:
Pumpkin peel: an enzymatic peel, developed specifically for sensitive and couperose skin. It does not irritate the skin, acts gently and counteracts excessive sebum secretion, characteristic of oily skin, as well as inflammation and suppuration.
Jessner’s peel: the peel combines salicylic acid and lactic acid, which positively affects seborrheic skin and redness resulting from excessive sun exposure. Jessner’s peel eliminates inflammation, color changes and traces of acne.
There is no need to worry about hormonal acne with home remedies anymore. In our clinic, we will help you choose the care that meets the needs of your skin.
