Question: I have recently gone off the pill and my face has become so problematic. Any advice?

Dear Dr Maureen, I have recently gone off the pill and my face has become so problematic. Any advice?

Answer

Thank you so much for your enquiry. There are a few things that we can do for you to combat this problem. There are both topical applications as well as supplements you can take to normalize the skin again. The challenge is to give you the right products and supplements based on the severity of what is currently going on with your skin, which is very difficult to do if I haven’t actually seen your skin. Are you close to any of our Skin Renewal branches, so that I or one of our doctors can have a look at what is happening with your skin? In the short term you can start with something as simple as taking Lamelle’s Acnevelle capsules, using a good Probiotic (like ultraflora balance from Metagenics), wearing a good facial sunscreen and using a topical to control the existing breakouts, something like Lamelle’s Active Control.
