The rollercoaster of hormones, particularly the increase in androgens, can stimulate the sebaceous glands to produce more oil (sebum). This excess oil can clog pores, leading to acne. Additionally, stress and lack of sleep can further disrupt hormonal balance, exacerbating the problem.

Tips: Use gentle cleaners and exfoliators to help unclog pores and reduce inflammation. Prioritize activities that reduce stress and ensure you get adequate sleep.

Hormonal changes during pregnancy can increase melanin production, leading to hyperpigmentation or melasma. This condition, often called the "mask of pregnancy," is exacerbated by sun exposure.

Tips: During the day, wear broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. At night, use serums with Hydrolytic®️ Enzyme to gently brighten your skin and reduce dark spots through accelerated cell renewal.

Decreased estrogen levels after childbirth can lead to a reduction in collagen production, resulting in a loss of skin elasticity and volume. This can cause a hollowed appearance around the eyes and cheeks .

Tips: Use skincare products with peptides to stimulate collagen production.

Rapid stretching of the skin during pregnancy can cause the dermis to tear, leading to stretch marks. These tears form scars as the skin heals, resulting in the visible lines known as stretch marks.

Tips: Keep your skin hydrated with moisturizers to maintain its elasticity and improve texture.
