Adult acne involves different drivers to adolescent acne. Hormonal acne in women is typically driven by androgen excess, poor oestrogen clearance or post-pill androgen rebound. Inflammatory acne involves elevated systemic inflammation, gut permeability and food reactivity as primary contributors. Our Naturopaths distinguish between these patterns before prescribing, because the natural treatment approach differs significantly between subtypes.
Eczema is an immune-mediated inflammatory skin condition with a strong gut permeability component. IgG food reactivity, particularly to gluten and dairy, is a common and frequently unidentified trigger. Our Naturopaths assess gut lining integrity and food reactivity using appropriate testing, and prescribe gut repair protocols alongside anti-inflammatory herbal medicine.
Rosacea involves persistent facial redness, flushing and in some cases papule formation. The drivers include dysbiosis, SIBO which has a well-documented association with rosacea, and neurogenic inflammation triggered by certain foods and environmental factors. Our Naturopaths assess the gut connection in rosacea and design Wellness Plans that address the internal inflammatory drivers.
Psoriasis is an autoimmune skin condition involving accelerated skin cell turnover driven by systemic inflammation. Gut permeability is a recognised trigger and perpetuator of psoriatic flares. Our Naturopaths address intestinal permeability, inflammatory load, omega-3 status and vitamin D alongside a targeted anti-inflammatory dietary approach.
Post-pill acne is a common presentation in women who have recently stopped the oral contraceptive pill and experience androgen rebound during cycle re-establishment. Perimenopause also produces skin changes as oestrogen declines. Our Naturopaths address these transitions with targeted hormonal and nutritional natural treatment. Read about hormonal skin support on our Womens Health Naturopath page.
