If you’ve tried every cleanser, serum, and supplement for hormonal acne, only to find your skin breaking out again, we understand your frustration. Hormonal breakouts aren’t the occasional blemishes most products promise to fix. They’re deep, painful, and persistent, and return no matter what you try.

There’s a reason these breakouts don’t respond to over-the-counter skincare. And it’s because hormonal acne is driven by internal changes that standard products simply can’t reach.  

In this blog, we’ll explore why hormonal acne is so hard to treat, how MiQuest cracked the code, and what results you can expect with our AI-empowered and hyper-personalised hormonal acne treatment.  

Why is Hormonal Acne So Hard to Treat?

Hormonal acne happens when hormone fluctuations – often during menstrual cycles, stress, or changes in contraception – trigger excess oil production. This excess oil clogs pores and causes inflammation beneath the surface.  

Over-the-counter products can clear surface bacteria, but they can’t regulate hormones or reduce inflammation deep within the skin. That’s why many people find themselves stuck in a constant loop of new routines and broken promises. As hormonal acne is influenced by internal hormone changes, it needs to be treated with medical guidance.

How MiQuest Cracked the Code  

At MiQuest, we proudly bring medical precision to our skincare treatments, combining human expertise with advanced technology to deliver targeted and prescription-only treatments that finally work. Here’s how we do it:

Expert diagnosis and prescription:

Our dermatology prescribers review your skin type, triggers, and medical history to identify what’s really driving your acne before creating your tailored plan.  

Targeted prescription actives:

The prescription active ingredients we use in our hormonal acne treatment include spironolactone, tretinoin, clindamycin, and niacinamide:

Spironolactone:

Reduces excess oil by blocking androgen activity, helping to calm breakouts and prevent new spots from forming.

Tretinoin:  

Speeds up cell turnover, clears blocked pores, and reduces deep inflammation.  

Clindamycin:  

Targets acne-causing bacteria to prevent future breakouts.

Niacinamide:

Strengthens the skin barrier, calms redness, and restores balance.  

Custom formulations by pharmacists and scientists:

Every prescription is blended to match your skin type and tolerance to deliver powerful results without unnecessary irritation.  

Smart AI adjustments:

Our UKCA-registered AI technology analyses your photo updates and progress to precisely fine-tune your prescription as your skin evolves.  

Regulated, safe, and personal:

Every single step we take meets UK medical standards to give you complete confidence that your treatment is effective, evidence-based, and safe.
