Living with acne is physically and emotionally distressing. It can affect your confidence, your self-esteem and it can be painfully embarrassing for both men and women.
Many of the people I meet, say they avoid going out, they rise extra early to apply layers of make up to hide their acne before going to work, or they spend huge amounts of time trying to pick the perfect outfit or scarf to minimise attention to their face.
Having suffered from acne in my teenage years, I can totally empathise and relate to their pain and discomfort. While we do associate acne with puberty and feel that it’s just part of life, as an adult though it’s not something we expect we’ll have to deal with and it can be terribly upsetting.
The good news is that Homeopathy offers men and women, a gentle, natural and effective solution to resolving acne without the use of harsh medications or adverse side effects.
I’ve tried everything to treat acne– nothing is working!
If you have suffered with acne then you have probably tried all the topical creams under the sun, used antibiotics and all sorts of medications, changed and improved your diet and countless women have been prescribed the pill to resolve their problem.
These things might help for a little while and provide temporary relief but the underlying problem never gets resolved and the acne returns again, usually with more vengeance than before.
The Homeopathic approach to adult acne
External eruptions of acne are often a sign of an internal disorder and that’s why in Homeopathy we focus on treating the whole person and the root cause – not just the topical acne.
So for example, if your acne is related to hormones, a sluggish digestive system or stress, we work on resolving these underlying problems, which in turn will allow your body to restore natural order and balance.
There is “no one single remedy” for acne in Homeopathy. Instead one is selected based on your specific needs.
Your homeopathy treatment is individualised as the cause of adult acne is not the same for everyone.
There are so many possible contributing causes to adult acne including
- Hormonal imbalances
- Overload of toxins
- Digestive issues, including irregular bowel movements, constipation, gas, bloating, fluid retention and poor liver function
- Food allergies
- Allergic or sensitive skin
- Excessive sweating
- Nutritional deficiencies
- Stress
During a consultation, all these factors are taken into consideration in deciding suitable homeopathic remedies to help you.
Hormonal Acne
Many of the women I see can relate the cause or worsening of their symptoms due to a hormonal imbalance. This can include:
- Acne related to the menstrual cycle occurring before, during or after periods or around ovulation
- Acne during pregnancy
- Acne that starts during the menopause
- Acne with hormonal conditions especially PCOS
- Acne that starts or comes back for women coming of the pill
“My first experience with Homeopathy was when I came to Eileen for holistic treatment for several health issues. One of these was acne that I had for years caused by a hormonal imbalance. After taking some prescribed homeopathic remedies the acne cleared little by little and I started to have healthy skin for the first time ever”. Nancy, Dublin 15
If you think your acne is hormonal related do get in touch to see if I can help you further.
Hormonal Acne – Acne when coming off the pill
Many women are put on the pill to treat acne but what often happens is that when they stop the pill or try to come off it, the acne comes back with a vengeance, worse than it was before.
Or women who might never actually have had acne are now dealing with it in much later years.
If you are struggling with acne, since coming off the pill, do get in touch to see how I can help you.
Hormones fluctuations caused by stress, diet and lack of sleep
Don’t forget other factors such as stress, lack of sleep and diet particularly sugar can also cause hormone fluctuations which in turn can affect your skin.
Excess toxins in your body
The skin is the body’s largest organ and it is an excretory organ. It removes any toxins that are not removed by the liver, bowels and kidneys. Therefore it is important that your digestive tract, bowels, liver and urinary system are all working well to get rid of excess toxins so they don’t back up, otherwise your skin takes the excess load.
Enjoy more radiant skin and feel confident naturally
If you have done everything to improve your lifestyle and diet or you have tried repeated medications and still have acne, choosing Homeopathy can offer an effective solution to help you enjoy more radiant and healthy skin.
Lasting improvement of acne is possible over a period of time when you take a holistic approach of healing from the inside out.
