    Hormonal Acne Treatment: Dermatologist Tips for Adult Acne

    Do you suffer from adult onset acne? If you are concerned that you may have hormonal acne, this video goes in depth into the signs and symptoms of hormonal acne.

Hormonal acne affecting females involves the U-zone which is the jawline and area around the mouth. The advent of maskne means that hormonal acne can be worsened by mask wearing. That can result in an acne pattern following the “O-zone” as described by Dr Teo. There are various acne treatments available, but which is suitable for hormonal acne?
