Hormone
acne treatment
Your glow starts from within
Hormonal acne treatments don’t target clogged pores; it goes deeper. At Miami Center for Dermatology, our team addresses skin health by examining internal imbalances that trigger excess oil production, inflammation, and recurring breakouts that don’t respond to skincare alone.
What is hormonal acne?
Hormonal acne is caused by imbalances in hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, and androgens. These shifts can increase oil production that can lead to deeper breakouts.
Hormonal acne often appears as:
→ Deep, cystic breakouts
→ Inflamed pimples that can be painful
→ Acne along the jaw, chin, or neck
→ Breakouts that are triggered with one cycle
→ Persistent acne that doesn’t respond to traditional treatments
Hormonal acne can affect both teens and adults and is especially common in adult women.
If these symptoms are familiar, a consultation should be arranged to determine whether hormonal acne is the problem.

How do I know if I need hormonal acne treatment?
Hormonal acne can be triggered by many factors that can be both common and overlooked.
→ Menstrual cycle fluctuations
→ Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
→ Elevated stress and cortisol levels
→ Perimenopause and menopause
→ Discontinuing birth control
→ Androgen excess
When triggers are internal, internal treatments are needed for rebalance.
