Hormonal Acne + Hyperpigmentation

Lisa Brascho

“ML has struggled with hormonal acne for several years. She deals with hyperpigmentation and discoloration that is left behind from the acne. Her pores are larger between the eyes, in the t-zone, and around her nose.

I started her on a regimen of Cleanser, Recovery and Eye Serum mornings and evenings. When she starts to feel the acne flare up, she spot treats with Salicylic Acid Gel. When she has microneedling, I use Moisturizing Mist and Light Moisturizer after the treatments. Barrier Renewal Cream instead of Light Moisturizer, if the skin is compromised. She also started using the Mandelic Acid 8%.

ML’s breakouts are much less now (every 3 months instead of every 3 weeks) and the cysts are much smaller. They go away in 1/2 the time. Her skin is hydrated and glowing. Her acne scars are a lot better. We are also seeing an improvement in her fine lines, especially around the eyes.” – LB
