Struggling with perioral dermatitis or hormonal acne? Let’s break it down: 💡 Perioral Dermatitis: Often confused with acne, this condition causes red, bumpy, or scaly patches around the mouth, nose, or eyes. Common triggers? Overuse of topical steroids, heavy skincare products, or even certain toothpaste. 💡 Hormonal Acne: Those pesky breakouts around the jawline, chin, or cheeks, especially during your cycle, can be due to fluctuating hormones. Stress and diet can play a role too! ✨ Treatment

Perioral dermatitis is a red rash that circles the mouth and the periocular and paranasal skin. The skin turns scaly and flaky with inflamed bumps. It can itch and burn. Topical antibiotics (Clindamycin or Erythromycin), Azelaic acid gel and Sulphur preprations are being used for treatment of PD. #eczema #dermatitis #perioraledermatitis
