This is a tricky one ...... I'm in week 6 and I'm starting to get spotty skin like I had when I was in my teens ! Is this a sign of hormone activity and therefore growth starting ??
Can anyone advise ?
Many thanks.

My response to you is not from experience with the domes but from knowledge of how skin reacts to inflammation from my experience in the medical field. If the spotty skin is on the area where you had skin irritation before that can be normal. It is called post inflammatory hypopigmentation and will improve with time and good moisturizing of the skin. From what I know about the mechanisms of the brava system it should not cause any hormonal imbalance. We definitley don't want to go through puberty again do we?
(except breast growth of course) !

Thanks for the responses.
I maybe should have been more exact, I didn't mean spots around breast area but on my face similar to what I had during puberty. Thanks for letting me know it all clears up though. Thats encouraging.
Cheers
