Finally, Real Relief from Hormonal Acne
Do you break out around your period? Do painful cysts keep popping up on your jawline, chin, or cheeks? Have you tried every acne treatment with no long-term results?
Hormonal acne is more than skin deep. It's painful, frustrating, and can impact your confidence and wellbeing. If this sounds like you, you're not alone.
At NXTLVL Health, Mitch is a trusted hormonal acne naturopath who helps women and teens understand the root cause of their breakouts. Using a holistic approach, he creates natural treatment plans to support hormone balance, skin health, gut health, and overall wellbeing. Whether you're dealing with hormonal acne specifically or other general acne concerns, our comprehensive skin naturopathy approach addresses the whole person.
What Is Hormonal Acne?
Hormonal acne is a type of acne caused by shifts in hormone levels. This can include androgens (male hormones like testosterone), estrogen, progesterone, insulin, and cortisol. These fluctuations can increase oil production, slow skin cell turnover, and trigger inflammation in the skin. Blood tests are essential for identifying the root cause of hormonal acne, particularly to assess hormone levels such as androgens, blood sugar, and insulin.
Hormonal acne often shows up as:
Why Hormonal Acne Happens
Hormonal imbalances are common, especially during puberty, perimenopause, post-birth control, or times of high stress. Other contributors include:
Dietary adjustments can reduce insulin resistance and may alleviate acne symptoms.
These internal imbalances contribute to acne development by increasing sebum (oil) production, clogging pores with dead skin cells, and triggering inflammation.
How a Hormonal Acne Naturopath Can Help
Mitch takes a unique approach to acne treatment. Rather than relying on short-term solutions or harsh topical treatments, he helps you understand what's causing your acne from within.
As a naturopath hormonal acne specialist, Mitch focuses on:
Finding the root cause of your hormonal acne
Balancing hormone levels naturally
Supporting gut and liver health
Improving digestion and blood sugar stability
Strengthening the skin barrier with nutrition
This results in clearer skin, improved energy, better moods, and lasting health changes.
What to Expect in Your Initial Consultation
Your first appointment at NXTLVL Health includes a full health assessment. Mitch will ask about your acne symptoms, menstrual cycle, gut health, digestion, sleep, stress, and skincare.
You may also receive recommendations for functional testing such as:
Hormone blood tests
Gut microbiome and digestive health analysis
Inflammatory markers and nutrient panels
These tests help us create a customised acne management plan based on your body's unique needs.
Your Personalised Acne Treatment Plan
Once we understand what's happening inside your body, Mitch builds a treatment plan designed to:
Balance hormones
Reduce acne flare ups
Improve gut health and digestion
Reduce inflammation
Clear detox pathways
Support clearer skin, naturally
Nutritional Therapy
We'll support healthy skin with foods that reduce inflammation and stabilise blood sugar. This may involve removing high glycemic foods, processed snacks, refined sugars, and hydrogenated oils. Instead, you'll add in a whole-food diet emphasizing consuming foods in their most natural state, which can be highly beneficial for acne treatment.
These dietary changes can reduce acne and support healthy hormone function.
Herbal Medicine and Supplements
Herbs and natural ingredients can:
Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C) aids the liver in metabolizing and excreting estrogens.
Mitch uses therapeutic doses tailored to your body, including key nutrients like zinc (which may help reduce acne lesions), vitamin A, and omega-3s.
Stress Management Techniques
Chronic stress affects the skin and hormones. Mitch provides gentle tools like:
Deep breathing
Mindfulness
Sleep support
Lifestyle adjustments
Effective stress management techniques include deep breathing, yoga, meditation, and journaling.
These techniques reduce cortisol levels, helping your skin stay calm and balanced.
Gut Health and Digestion
Gut bacteria influence immune function, hormone metabolism, and nutrient absorption. Poor gut health can contribute to acne and inflammation.
Your acne naturopath plan may include:
Improving gut health leads to improved skin health and reduces acne-prone triggers.
Hormonal Acne in Women: It's More Than Just Skin Deep
Many women experience acne linked to their hormonal cycle. This includes:
Pre-menstrual acne
Mid-cycle (ovulation) breakouts
Acne during perimenopause
Post pill acne
These patterns reveal valuable clues about what your hormones are doing. Mitch helps decode those signs and guide your body back to balance.
