Treatments for Acne

Chemical Peels-Peels are a chemical form of exfoliation that slough off the top layer of dead skin over the course of a few days. There are many different peels with many different ingredients. Each peel is designed for different skin types. Typically, most peels are designed to help with pigmentation and dull complexion.

Microneedling-If you are dealing with facial acne scars, you're not alone. According to The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, 80% of people ages 11-30 have acne problems and scarring. Seeing acne scars every time you look in the mirror can leave you feeling less confident. But there is something you can do about it. SkinPen can improve the look of facial acne scars, for smooth, healthy skin that glows from within. As the first FDA-cleared microneedling treatment, SkinPen is the trusted choice of leading dermatologists and estheticians and recommended by 90% of clinical trial patients. Younger, firmer, and more radiant skin awaits!

Subcision for Scar Release and Dermal Filler-Results are seen instantly and improve over weeks as there is a double effect from the procedure: physical lifting up and out of the scar by breaking up the fibrous bands tethering the scar down under the skin, then stimulates collagen development that often follows from fibroblast stimulation in the dermis by the needle and controlled trauma of the procedure.

Radiofrequency Microneedling with Morpheus8 - Morpheus8 can be an extremely effective treatment for acne. Acne is caused by excess skin oil that a bacteria called Cutibacterium acnes then feeds on, causing inflammation that results in pimples. The therapies combined in Morpheus8 treatment have the effect of shrinking or shutting down the oil glands under the skin, thereby preventing the chain of events that causes acne in the first place.
