This article will decode the homeopathic understanding of the face according to the understanding of Antonie Peppler, the founder of Creative Homeopathy, and her research on symptom language.
According to her interpretation, “symptom language” is a form of somatic communication—the “soma,” respectively. The subconsciousness of utilizing the material body expresses an internal conflict that the individual must become aware of to balance himself. The face can also indicate various psychological conditions in this article. Thus, we organized a list of homeopathic remedies that respond to these internal disharmonies.
The psychological meaning of the face
The distinctive, mostly visible aspect of a person is his face. It allows conclusions about how someone stands by and stands up for himself and how he “faces” life. The face is also a very confrontational display of suppressed emotions and feelings that are not dared to be expressed directly. It also may show deep-rooted internal conflicts that we listed below.
The meaning of forehead wrinkles
Forehead wrinkles are associated with an individual defiantly conforming to a particular traditional concept or societal paradigm to belong to the group. Unwillingly enduring a life situation that one does not actually stand behind. This is accepted for reasons of belonging, rooted in the dependency on external support and security.

The psychology of facial acne during puberty
Facial acne during puberty is the expression of a changing perception of one’s own body and personality. This also includes, but is not limited to, the perception of one’s own desire and sexuality. The confrontation with one’s own needs and feelings and the conscious perception of one’s own position within a group in sexual and general terms are the subject of acne.
Instead of blossoming in one’s own activity and exploring and implementing the new perception in fresh contacts, only the skin “blossoms,” as if one wants to prevent this implementation, these contacts, oneself. The courage might still be missing. Most teenagers struggle with the belief that one is not allowed to position oneself, and that one has to adapt. They do not dare to perceive and live their own perspective on life.
