Get Rid Of PCOS Related Skin And Hair Problems

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is a hormonal disorder that leads to the enlargement of ovaries and the formation of many small cysts inside it. PCOS can cause many skin problems like oily skin, adult acne, skin tags, dark patches and hair problems like excess facial and body hair and thinning of scalp hair.

Acne due to PCOS (hormonal acne) is entirely different from normal acne. General acne put on when the excess oil produced by sebaceous gland blocks the pores of the skin where PCOS related acne is formed due to the imbalance in certain hormones. Acne due to PCOS is more severe from general acne. This mainly occurs in hormonally sensitive areas like cheeks, chin, jawline and upper neck. Unlike regular acne, hormonal acne is very painful.

Treating Acne due to PCOS


We can treat acne due to PCOS through medications, laser treatments and chemical peels.  Your specialist will examine the acne and will provide you medications depending on the grade of your acne. During laser treatment, they use laser light energy to remove the outer layer of your skin. During a chemical peel, a particular chemical will be applied on the skin and it is then peeled off along with the acne and new skin will grow later.

Treating Hair problems due to PCOS


Hair problems like excess facial hair and body hair can be treated using laser, electrolysis, and certain medications. When you undergo laser treatment the highly concentrated beam which is absorbed by the hair follicles destroys the hair. During electrolysis, they insert a surgical instrument called probe into the hair follicle and current is passed through it to destroy hair follicles. Hairloss due to PCOS can also be treated using certain medications which improve hair growth, through platelet-rich plasma treatment, where blood is drawn from the patient and the plasma rich blood is further injected to the scalp. Hair transplantation surgery can also bring a solution to your hair loss problem.
