Brilio.net - Facial problems related to acne are quite disturbing. One of them is hormonal acne .

Hormonal acne is acne that appears due to excessive sebum production, which can clog pores and cause acne. Excessive sebum production is related to hormonal changes that occur in the body.

Although it can be experienced by anyone, hormonal acne is more often experienced by teenage and adult women. Not without reason, many things cause a woman's hormones to become unbalanced, for example menstruation, pregnancy and menopause. Not only that, hormonal acne can also appear due to certain medical conditions, such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).

During puberty or adolescence, hormonal acne often appears in the T-zone area of the face, namely the forehead, nose and chin. Meanwhile, in adults, hormonal acne can appear along the jawline, lower cheeks and neck. This condition is quite disturbing and can reduce the sufferer's self-confidence.

It's not surprising that many people feel frustrated due to the difficulty of getting rid of hormonal acne. However, with proper and consistent treatment, many have managed to recover from hormonal acne on their faces. As shared by one TikTok user with the account name @risma_kencana, who shared his struggle to recover from hormonal acne.
