Hormonal acne: what if the problem comes from within?
You apply creams, change your skincare routine, try patches... but your acne persists?
It's not inevitable. Hormonal acne is an internal problem: it's caused by a hormone imbalance, which stimulates sebum production and skin inflammation. Without deep action, external treatments aren't enough to resolve the problem permanently.

It is thanks to them that OPEKA was born, a supplement designed to act effectively on hormonal acne, by treating the real cause of the problem: hormonal balance.
These capsules are specifically formulated to address the cause of hormonal acne
Why won't your acne go away?
Conventional treatments only address surface symptoms. If your acne is hormonal, these solutions may not work long-term.
Because if you only act on the skin (the outside), without acting on the origin (inside), your acne will come back.
Hormonal acne is your body's warning signal. It's time to listen to it... and take serious action.

Hormonal acne isn't just a skin problem : it's an internal imbalance that can affect your self-confidence and daily well-being.
How to spot hormonal acne?
- Does your acne persist throughout your cycle?
- Is it mainly located on the lower part of the face, and/or the back, shoulders?
If you recognize yourself in these symptoms, discover how OPEKA can help you regain a natural balance.
The role of hormones in hormonal acne
Hormonal acne occurs when hormones are imbalanced.
In our case, it is an excess of testosterone associated with a lack of estrogen which causes this localized acne on the lower part of the face and/or the shoulders and back.
This is why creams and local treatments are often not enough to solve the problem.
OPEKA naturally rebalances these hormones, reducing acne at the source for healthier, longer-lasting clear skin.
Rebalancing your hormones naturally is possible!
The body has its own hormonal regulation mechanisms, but factors such as stress, diet or certain predispositions can unbalance it.
Fortunately, it is possible to readjust this balance naturally, by supporting good hormones and limiting those that promote acne.
By relying on natural solutions, you are choosing a gentle and respectful approach to support your hormonal balance in a sustainable way.
Opéka, the natural ally for soothed and balanced skin
Healthy skin is achieved over time: every step counts in the hormonal balance process. OPEKA supports your skin in depth, day after day, targeting the causes of imperfections.

FAQs
How soon can I expect to see initial results?
You will feel beneficial effects as soon as the first treatment is over. However, hormonal rebalancing takes place in-depth and can take several months.
Generally, we recommend following a program for at least 3 consecutive months combined with a healthy lifestyle and a varied and balanced diet.
If you experience an acne breakout when you start your treatment, it's nothing unusual! It's the purifying effect of a plant found in Opéka, burdock, which helps eliminate toxins accumulated in your skin.
This process is temporary and a sign that your body is responding well to the supplement. Blemishes will gradually fade, giving way to clearer, more balanced skin.
