Direct answer

Record when and where the acne recurs so the pattern and treatment needs can be assessed. Discuss medication, pregnancy plans and accompanying symptoms rather than assuming skincare alone addresses recurrence.

Before your consultation

  • Does a monthly pattern establish the cause?
  • Which cycle records are useful?
  • Why mention pregnancy plans?

General information, not a personal diagnosis or treatment plan. Suitability, risks and recovery require an individual consultation.

Does a monthly pattern establish the cause?

the American Academy of Dermatology explains that hormones may play a role in acne, but the fact that acne appears on the chin alone cannot confirm a specific hormonal disorder. Repetitive patterns are clues for counseling. Skin lesions and overall medical history should be evaluated together to determine the scope of care needed.

Which cycle records are useful?

Write down on your calendar the date you remember the start of your most recent cycle and the date your acne was most severe. Also indicate whether the lesion is painful or repeats in the same spot. Rather than delaying treatment to gather sufficient records, you can simply consult with current information and be guided through follow-up observations.

Why mention pregnancy plans?

Pregnancy, lactation, and medication information are important when choosing acne treatment. If you plan to become pregnant or are likely to become pregnant, be sure to tell us before prescribing. Even if a drug was effective before, you should not use it again arbitrarily and check whether it is suitable for your current situation.

Can extraction alone prevent new lesions?

A distinction must be made between management of current lesions and plans to reduce the occurrence of new lesions. Do not evaluate recurrence prevention based solely on the temporary feeling of smoothness after treatment. It is a good idea to have an explanation of what treatment does and what routine care you can continue.

Should I report menstrual changes or other symptoms?

If your cycle has become irregular or you have any other changes in your body, please let us know during your skin consultation. This can be linked to a separate assessment if necessary. It is important not to self-diagnose or start hormone-related medications based solely on a list of symptoms on the Internet.
