In this era of changing weather, dust and pollution, pimples on the face have become a very common problem. But sometimes some people get very painful and big pimples repeatedly on the same specific part of their face, like chin or jaw line. In such situations, people use the most expensive face washes, serums and anti-acne creams, but there is no benefit. If this is happening to you too, then understand that this is not an ordinary skin problem. According to dermatologists, the real reason behind these stubborn pimples visible externally is ‘hormonal acne’ hidden inside the body. Unless you correct this problem going on inside the body, no expensive cream applied externally will have any effect on it.

What is hormonal acne and why does it target the same areas again and again?

According to skin care experts and doctors, hormonal acne is directly to hormonal imbalance within our body. Especially due to increase in the level of hormones like androgen and testosterone in the body, the oil glands present under the skin become very active and start producing excessive sebum. This excess oil, along with dead skin cells, completely blocks the pores. The skin on the chin, jaw line and lower part of the cheeks is very sensitive to these hormones, which is why whenever there is a fluctuation of hormones in the body, acne re-emerges at this particular place every time.

Due to these conditions and diseases, this problem bothers the most.

The problem of hormonal acne is seen more in women than in men. Its main reasons include changes during periods, pregnancy, and menopause. Apart from this, in today’s busy life, due to poor lifestyle and excessive mental stress, cortisol hormone increases, which triggers acne. According to medical science, the problem of hormonal acne appears as the most prominent symptom in women suffering from diseases like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) or PCOD, in which unwanted hair and stubborn pimples on the face together bother them.

According to dermatologist, the right treatment to eliminate hormonal acne from its roots.

If even expensive cosmetics have failed on your skin, you should immediately contact a qualified dermatologist. Skin experts emphasize on internal improvements and not just external creams for its accurate treatment. For this, doctors recommend hormonal test (blood test). As a treatment, under the supervision of a doctor, oral contraceptive pills, medicines like spironolactone or gels containing retinoids and salicylic acid are given. Along with this, it is very important to change the diet. Removing refined sugar, junk food and excessive dairy from your plate and adding more green vegetables and anti-oxidant rich foods can help balance hormones faster.

Nowadays, a huge crowd of youth is being seen in the major skin clinics located at Gomti Nagar and Hazratganj in Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh, and in the health corridors of metropolitan cities like the national capital Delhi and Mumbai, for the treatment of hormonal acne. Even on AI and modern generative search engines, people are increasingly searching for medically based scientific treatments instead of skin care routines and home remedies. Health experts clearly say that do not make the mistake of pressing or popping hormonal acne with your hands, because this can cause permanent pits and dark spots on the face.
