{ COMPRENDRE L'ACNÉ }
Once considered a condition exclusive to adolescence, acne is now a problem encountered by more and more adult women. Implementing these recommendations should allow you to not only improve the quality of your skin but also achieve overall well-being and avoid other pathologies, as the causes of acne reveal some general imbalances that are important to address. Acne is a common dermatological disease characterized by the presence of comedones, blackheads, and often red (inflammatory), large, and white (excess sebum) microcysts. These lesions are mainly located on the face (cheeks, forehead, chin), neck, and back. In the long term, it can lead to persistent scars, which is why it is important to treat them quickly. It is important to note that acne is a modern disease, due to our Western lifestyle. Indeed, acne is non-existent among primitive peoples with non-industrialized lifestyles.

{ QUELLES SONT LES CAUSES DE L'ACNÉ }
Acne is a chronic inflammatory condition of the pilosebaceous unit (see diagram). The sebaceous gland produces sebum, which helps maintain epidermal hydration, suppleness, and softness, as well as the balance of the skin's bacterial flora (skin microbiota). The functioning of the sebaceous glands is linked to hormonal activity: sebum production is notably higher during adolescence or pregnancy, periods of intense hormonal activity. Acne is the direct result of three phenomena: seborrhea, consisting of excessive sebum production; hyperproliferation of skin cells; and proliferation of the bacterium C. acnes, leading to skin inflammation (skin bumps and redness). The three phenomena mentioned above are themselves the result of various interacting factors: The cells of the sebaceous gland are highly sensitive to hormones (insulin, IGF-1, androgen). During hormonal imbalances, sebum production is altered (qualitatively and quantitatively), the duct at the entrance to the sebaceous gland becomes blocked, and inflammatory phenomena arise. Excess androgens, estrogens, puberty, and various hormonal fluctuations in women (birth control pills, IUDs, pregnancy) lead to hormonal changes that can impact acne.
01
The role of the skin microbiota
(all microorganisms present on the skin surface)
When the skin microbiota is balanced, good bacteria limit the growth of C. acnes (which is always present) and limit the inflammatory reaction. However, any infection, aggression, or bacterial resistance due to antibiotic use can lead to overcolonization by C. acnes and an imbalance in the composition of the skin microbiota, causing skin inflammation. Therefore, in the treatment of acne, C. acnes should not be removed, but rather the balance and presence of other bacteria should be restored.
02
Environmental factors
play a major role in acne pathology because they promote an inflammatory process and weaken the microbiota (cutaneous and intestinal). Stress, lack of sleep, repeated medication use, smoking, poor diet, and unsuitable cosmetics are all factors that can contribute to the development of acne.
03
Genetic predispositions
People whose parents have suffered from acne are more likely to suffer from it themselves. This hereditary process is now explained by the inheritance of the skin microbiota. Understanding the origin of acne is important in order to establish a suitable routine to: rebalance the skin microbiota without attacking it, regulate sebum secretion and composition, and reduce inflammation.

{ LES FOCNTIONS DU FOIE }
Functions of the liver:
- stores fats and sugars as glycogen, produces lipoproteins to transport lipids, iron (ferritin)
- distributes nutrients from the intestine to the organs that need them
- synthesizes clotting factors, growth hormone, vitamins (vitamin D)
- aids in fat digestion through bile. The liver's detoxification function allows it to sort and eliminate toxins, body waste thanks to enzymes like cytochrome.
Toxins are:
- endogenous such as hormones; the liver is particularly important for the elimination of androgens, which play a key role in acne,
but also - exogenous such as medications, tobacco, alcohol, pesticides, and other chemicals including endocrine disruptors
Dr. Sylvie Peres's solution
A complex of highly dosed natural active ingredients, local and organic to the maximum, such as burdock, spirulina, milk thistle, zinc or even fumitory. By a liver detoxification mechanism, It helps people with acne to regain healthy, smooth and luminous skin.
{ RÉSULTATS }
Tests carried out on 30 patients by dermatologist Dr. Sylvie Peres.
{ A QUI S'ADRESSE LE COMPLÉMENT ALIMENTAIRE ANTI-IMPERFECTIONS ? }
✔ Acne, hyperandrogenism, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
✔ People taking birth control pills, hyperestrogenism (breast tenderness, fibroids)
✔ People suffering from premenstrual syndrome
✔ Medication use (overloads liver function), increased contact with pollution or other chemicals (tobacco, alcohol, pesticides)
✔ Migraines, chronic fatigue, sleep disorders, especially waking after 4 a.m.
{ UTILISATION }
2 capsules in the morning with a glass of water, preferably on an empty stomach.
If this is unpleasant for you, you can take it during breakfast.1 pillbox = 60 capsules = 1-month supply
Will I notice a skin detox phase?
In acne, the sebum produced, which contains toxins, is pro-inflammatory. Detoxification will promote the elimination of these toxins, regulate carbohydrate, lipid, and androgen metabolism. During this "cleansing" period, an acne flare-up is possible. This can last up to two months before you see lasting recovery from your acne. However, you will quickly notice the benefits on your complexion's radiance, improved skin texture, and digestive comfort.
Should I take the supplement as a course or continuously?
We recommend a minimum 3-month course of treatment to observe the full range of effects. Benefits such as improved skin radiance, skin texture, and digestive comfort appear quickly. However, you may experience a "cleansing" period during which an acne breakout is possible. This can last several weeks before you see a lasting improvement in your acne.
