PCOS Skin & Hair Management
Clear Skin, Confident You
Why PCOS Affects Your Skin and Hair
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal imbalance that can deeply impact a woman’s skin, hair, and overall confidence. Due to elevated androgens (male hormones), PCOS can cause:
• Persistent acne (especially jawline/chin)
• Oily skin and clogged pores
• Excess facial and body hair (hirsutism)
• Hair thinning or female-pattern baldness
• Skin darkening (acanthosis nigricans on neck/underarms)
• Pigmentation or scarring from acne
At Dermosphere Clinic, we offer a specialized, dermatologist-supervised PCOS Skin & Hair Program that addresses the root causes of these changes with medical treatments, advanced technology, and lifestyle support.
PCOS-Related Skin Concerns We Treat
1. Hormonal Acne
• Deep, painful breakouts around the jawline, chin, and back
• Often resistant to over-the-counter products
• Can worsen during periods or stress
2. Oily Skin + Large Pores
• Excess sebum leads to clogged pores, blackheads, and dullness
• Long-term buildup worsens acne and texture
3. Skin Darkening
• Acanthosis Nigricans (velvety pigmentation) on neck, underarms, inner thighs
• Often associated with insulin resistance
4. Post-Acne Marks & Pigmentation
• Brown, red, or purple spots left behind after acne heals
• Slower healing in PCOS due to inflammation
PCOS-Related Hair Concerns We Treat
1. Facial Hair Growth (Hirsutism)
• Thick, dark hair on chin, upper lip, sideburns, chest, or back
• Often emotionally distressing and hard to manage with waxing/threading
2. Hair Thinning & Hair Fall
• Widening hair part, diffuse hair loss, and reduced volume
• Related to high androgen levels, insulin resistance, and inflammation

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I do these treatments if I’m on hormonal pills?
Yes. In fact, we often combine medical and cosmetic therapies for best results.
2. Will laser remove PCOS facial hair permanently?
Laser offers long-term reduction, especially when paired with hormonal control. Regular maintenance may be needed.
3. Will my acne and hair fall improve with lifestyle changes?
Yes, and we support that. But professional dermatology care accelerates healing and targets hormonal damage more directly.
