Have you ever heard that acne around the chin and jawline indicates hormonal acne?

According to ayurvedic face-mapping, acne on the chin and along the jawline is thought to be caused by hormonal fluctuations like in puberty, period, pregnancy, menopause, PCOS, starting or stopping birth control pills, etc.

❓❓But why in that specific area? The chin and jaw area has a rich supply of blood flow and this increased blood flow means that there is an overabundance of the androgens in the area.

Because acne vulgaris is driven by hypersensitivity of the oil glands to androgens 👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻
⚠️MORE ANDROGENS = MORE OIL = MORE TRAPPED DEAD SKIN = MORE ACNE

The products that you are applying to your face will NOT work over night! And if anyone is trying to sell you something that says this they lying 😩.

You know those memes I post from time to time? The ones the makes pores to disappear? I joke because to me is common sense but in reality so many people believe in them.

You have to be patient with your skin. It takes time to fix things like acne and hyperpigmentation. Remember, consistency is key 🔑

Is acne affecting your self-esteem? ? --- You are NOT alone!
Acne is often thought to be a trivial problem, especially when compared to other diseases. But some studies have shown that people with acne experienced social, psychological, and emotional ramifications at the same level as those with chronic health problems, like epilepsy, diabetes, and arthritis.*

I can help you feel better about your skin, all you need is to follow the program, be consistent and trust the process 👊🏻

🧬 The cause of melasma is 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗣𝗟𝗘𝗫; it has been proposed to be a photoageing disorder in genetically predisposed individuals. The pigmentation ultimately results from the overproduction of melanin by melanocytes (pigment cells)

❓What causes or 𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗚𝗚𝗘𝗥 Melasma?
* Family history — 60% report affected family members
* Sun exposure — ultraviolet and visible light promote melanin production
* Hormones — pregnancy and the use of oestrogen/progesterone-containing oral contraceptives, intrauterine devices, implants, and hormone replacement therapy, are implicated in one-quarter of affected women; thyroid disorders can be associated with melasma
* Medications and scented products — new targeted therapies for cancer and perfumed soaps, toiletries, and cosmetics may cause a phototoxic reaction to trigger melasma

The best method of 𝗧𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 is to work on the condition at the source (cellular- in the basal layer) and managing the cause/ triggers if possible ie. the contraceptive pill, triggers- heat & UV radiation 📝

👏🏻👏🏻After in clinic results is achieved the secret to limit reoccurrence and maintain the progress and results - The client must be 💯% 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗜𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗗 to a home care routine including; antioxidant ingredients, tyrosinase inhibitors (pigment blockers) with the daily application of a broad spectrum physical sun protection and a wide brim hat. 👒
