About Acne Treatment

Acne affects people of all ages. You may suffer from acne for numerous reasons, such as hormonal changes, genetic factors, excess sebum production, and more. If your pores are clogged with dead skin cells, debris, and oil residue, you’re likely to experience inflammation and acne breakouts. The risk of acne is further catalyzed by the harmful p.acnes bacteria. Regular acne breakouts can also leave your skin scarred. We provide highly personalized acne treatments that help you achieve smooth, even-textured, and acne-free skin.

Your Acne Treatment Options

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to acne treatment. Different people suffer from acne for different reasons. And frequent acne breakouts can also affect your skin in different ways, leaving you with boxcar scars, ice pick scars, rolling scars, or other types of acne scars. Instead of providing a cookie-cutter acne treatment, our medical providers analyze your skin type, discuss your goals, and curate personalized treatments. We stop acne breakouts completely and heal your acne scars.

Medical-Grade Skincare

At-home skincare is an essential component of your acne treatment. In-office acne treatments can improve your skin’s overall texture and remove all the immediate problems, but at-home skin care is essential for long-lasting aesthetic health. Our medical providers offer top-of-the-line medical-grade skincare products that unclog your pores, regulate oil production, facilitate collagen production, and prevent acne breakouts.

HydraFacial

HydraFacial is an in-office skin rejuvenation technique that prevents acne breakouts and improves overall skin texture. HydraFacial involves exfoliation, extraction, and infusion — the three most essential components of skincare. The medical provider uses the cutting-edge HydraFacial tool to exfoliate the dead skin cells, unclog the pores, remove the debris, and infuse your skin with essential products that minimize acne breakouts.

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are unique skincare formulations that peel away the uppermost layers of the skin, including dead skin cells, makeup residue, debris, oils, and other impurities. Unclogging the pores makes your skin look smooth and even-textured, and it minimizes the likelihood of acne breakouts and inflammation. We also use specialized chemical peels that kill the harmful acne-producing bacteria and facilitate collagen production.

Microneedling

Microneedling is the ideal treatment for acne scars. Microneedling can’t be performed on skin with active acne, but it can improve the skin’s texture and heal acne scars. The medical provider uses a specialized device to make thousands of micro-channels on the skin’s surface and activate the skin’s natural healing processes, including collagen production and skin cell regeneration. Over time, your body produces new collagen fibers to heal the acne scars.

Your Acne Treatment Journey

Everyone has a completely unique acne treatment journey. Our medical providers understand the root cause of acne breakouts can vary from one individual to the next. They examine your facial skin, discuss your goals, and recommend the ideal treatment plan for you. Your acne treatment might start with chemical peels or HydraFacial to stop acne breakouts. And once you’re no longer suffering from acne, we may recommend microneedling to heal the acne scars. We also provide at-home skincare products to support the results.

Acne Treatment Results:

Onset & Longevity

How long it takes for your acne treatment to work depends on numerous factors. The results will depend on the severity and type of acne, your skin type, the procedures performed, and your at-home skincare routine. Most patients need several weeks or months of regular treatments to see optimal results. Most acne treatments involve a combination of methods. Please schedule a consultation with our medical providers to learn more about your acne treatment options.
