What is acne?
Acne arises when an increase in sebum production, often triggered by hormonal fluctuations during puberty, becomes trapped due to dead skin cells accumulating at the pore openings. This leads to the formation of sebum blockages known as comedones. These blockages can become aggravated by the proliferation of acne-causing bacteria and inflammatory responses.
Acne is one of the most prevalent skin conditions, affecting not only teenagers but also adults in their 20s through their 40s. While it mostly appears on the face, it can also develop in other areas rich in sebaceous glands, such as the neck, back, and chest.

How Is an Acne Treatment done?

1. Comprehensive Skin Assessment
Your doctor begins with a detailed evaluation of your skin condition—identifying active acne, inflammation levels, scarring patterns, and skin sensitivity. This ensures your treatment plan is personalized for the best results.
2. Calming Active Acne
To bring inflammation under control, we use a combination of:
Rejuran Healer + Exosome Therapy: Restores skin balance, hydrates, and soothes irritated skin.
LDM Ultrasonic Therapy: Reduces redness, inflammation, and oil buildup.
Anti-inflammatory Injections: Targets stubborn breakouts to calm them quickly.
3. Treating Acne Scars & Texture (Once Breakouts Stabilize)
When active acne is under control, we begin resurfacing treatments such as:
Potenza RF Microneedling: Boosts collagen, smooths acne scars, and tightens enlarged pores.
Optional Juvelook Skin Booster: Enhances regeneration and strengthens scar revision results.
4. Post-Treatment Care & Skin Healing
After your procedure, soothing products and regenerative boosters may be applied to reduce redness and support faster recovery.
5. Ongoing Maintenance
Depending on your skin goals, follow-up treatments or maintenance sessions may be recommended to maintain clarity, improve texture, and prevent future breakouts.
Precautions after Acne treatment
caution
- It is advisable to avoid direct UV exposure on the day of the procedure.
- Apply sunscreen when going outdoors after the procedure to protect your skin.
- Avoid saunas and steam rooms for one week following the procedure to support proper healing.
- Expect some redness and swelling in the treated area for 1-2 days after the procedure; this is a normal response.
