Nutrafol is launching Nutrafol Skin, a supplement for women with mild to moderate acne.
The formula comprises a proprietary Synergen Skin Complex and standardized 100% drug-free ingredients.
TDD Reached out to Jeanine B. Downie, MD, Founder and director of image Dermatology in Montclair, NJ, to get the scoop on this new launch. “Nutrafol Skin appears to work on mild- moderate acne in both males and females,” she says. “From the clinical trials, it is well tolerated and can be used alone or in combination with other therapies. As a dermatologist, I recommend combination therapies for all acne, including even mild acne.”
Nutrafol Skin targets root causes of acne including stress and hormonal fluctuations from the inside out.
Here’s how:
Short-term and/or daily stress can increase cortisol and lead to acne breakouts. Nutrafol Skin contains Holy Basil to help reduce stress hormones and balance the body’s response to daily stress.
Monthly changes in hormones can result in acne around the jawline or neck. Nutrafol Skin contains Maca, an adaptogenic root, to accompany selenium, which targets normal hormonal fluctuations as a root cause of acne.
Factors like nutrition and stress can impact gut bacteria balance, which then affects skin health. Nutrafol Skin contains prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics to support the digestive system as a root cause of acne.
Natural immune responses can increase sebum production and cell turnover, resulting in an accumulation of dead skin cells. Nutrafol Skin contains curcumin to support immune response as a root cause of acne.
Diet can influence oil production and microbiome health. Nutrafol Skin contains berberine to help support healthy glucose metabolism.
Oxidative stress and environmental factors can impact skin and clog pores. Nutrafol Skin contains the antioxidants Sicilian orange and lycopene to help fight free radicals that affect skin.
“For the past 2.5 years, we have brought all of the scientific resources and research available to us at Nutrafol to develop our whole-body approach for women struggling with their skin,” says Giorgos Tsetis, Nutrafol’s Co-Founder and CEO, in a news release. “We know skin and hair concerns mirror our inner health, and our mission is to extend our impact to as many individuals as possible.”
