Understanding Acne & Breakouts

Many clients notice improvement within a series of treatments, but timing depends on acne severity, skin response, hormones, home care, and treatment type. We create a personalized timeline during your consultation.

We treat a wide range of skin tones and use device settings selected for individual skin type, treatment area, and clinical suitability. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is also reviewed carefully during consultation.

We treat all types of acne scars - ice pick, boxcar, and rolling scars - using RF microneedling (Cutera Secret Pro), chemical peels, and combination protocols. Most scar treatments require 3-4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results.

While we focus on advanced aesthetic treatments, our physician-supervised team can recommend prescription topicals like tretinoin as part of your at-home regimen. For systemic medications, we can coordinate with your dermatologist or primary care provider.

HydraFacial and BioRePeel have minimal recovery for many clients. Chemical peels may cause 2-5 days of peeling depending on the peel depth. RF microneedling typically involves 1-3 days of redness. We tailor treatment intensity to your schedule and goals.
