Hormonal Acne Treatment in Myeongdong
Re:Berry Clinic – Myeongdong Branch
Control recurring breakouts with personalized hormonal acne treatment at Re:Berry Clinic in Myeongdong. This medically guided approach focuses on regulating oil activity, calming inflammation, and preventing long-term scarring for stable, clearer skin.
What Is Hormonal Acne?
Hormonal acne is acne triggered by fluctuations in androgen hormones, which stimulate excess sebum production. It commonly presents as:
- Deep, painful cysts along the jawline
- Chin and lower cheek breakouts
- Flare-ups before menstruation
- Persistent adult acne
Unlike teenage acne, hormonal acne often recurs in cycles and may continue into adulthood.
What Causes Hormonal Acne?
Hormonal acne may be influenced by:
- Menstrual cycle fluctuations
- Stress-related cortisol changes
- Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
- Disruption in androgen balance
- Excess oil production
Because the root cause is internal, topical skincare alone is often insufficient.
How Hormonal Acne Treatment Works
Treatment targets both inflammation and oil gland activity while addressing underlying triggers. Depending on severity, options may include:
- Sebum-control laser therapy
- Anti-inflammatory injections for active cysts
- Oral or topical prescription therapy (when appropriate)
- Skin barrier repair programs
- Acne scar prevention strategies
By stabilizing oil production and reducing inflammation:
- Breakouts become less frequent
- Pain and swelling decrease
- Skin texture improves
- Risk of scarring is minimized
Consultation time: 15–30 minutes
Procedure time: 15–30 minutes
Sessions required: Varies by condition
Recovery: Mild redness or tenderness possible
