Acne Management

Your clear skin journey starts here

Acne is the number one skin condition in the United States, affecting millions of people. Healing this condition takes patience, consistency, and a personalized approach. As a certified acne specialist, I can help get your acne under control without the need for prescriptions. During your initial consultation, I will assess your skin type, acne type, skin tolerance, and lifestyle factors to create a fully customized treatment plan that may include facials, peels, gentle laser therapies, and affordable home care. This combined strategy is aimed not only at clearing existing acne, but also at preventing future breakouts and scarring.

For best results, a combination of bi-weekly or monthly professional treatments and consistent home care is recommended. Most clients begin to see significant improvement within three to six months, depending on the type and severity of their acne. My acne approach is never one-size-fits-all. Each appointment is tailored to your skin's current condition, ensuring it receives exactly what it needs at every stage of the healing process. Let's work together to help you achieve the clear, confident skin you deserve.

Acne Management Services

Acne Peel

Clear-Acne Facial

An acne peel is designed to target active breakouts, congestion, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation while supporting overall skin balance and healing. These powerful peels use professional-grade ingredients to balance the skin microbiome and work with your skin's natural receptors, enhancing absorption and effectiveness. Safe for all skin types, each acne peel treatment is customized to your skin's needs and tolerance level to gently exfoliate, reduce bacteria, and unclog pores without over-drying or irritating the skin. For best results, bi-weekly treatments are recommended to maintain consistency and accelerate the skin's renewal process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is a good candidate?

Individuals experiencing persistent flare ups or severe acne who have not responded well to traditional treatments are ideal candidates.

Who is not a good candidate?

While these treatments are safe and effective for most people with acne, some individuals may not be ideal candidates due to factors that could increase risks or impact results. Medical clearance may be required for certain conditions. Please consult with your healthcare provider if you are unsure.

Precautions to consider:

Patients who are undergoing treatment for skin cancer - consult with your healthcare provider.
Compromised skin (active dermatitis, sunburn, open wounds or sores, infection) in the treatment area.
Please notify me if you a have history of cancer, blood clots, bacterial/viral/fungus infection, heart, kidney, or liver failure, are pregnant or nursing, on Accutane in the last 6 months, have a pacemaker, internal defibrillator, or a history of seizures as these will limit certain tools and products I am able to use.

Acne treatments require consistency and commitment. Those unwilling to follow a home care plan or return for treatments may not see optimal results.

When will I see results?

Results are usually noticeable within a few weeks of starting treatment with significant improvements as the treatment continues over the course of three to six months (in most cases), depending on your type of acne. Some types of acne take longer to clear.

How long do results last?

Results vary in durability, but maintaining the prescribed skincare plan can significantly extend the effectiveness of your treatments. Lifestyle guidelines such as diet, medications, cosmetics, stress, and pore-clogging ingredients in skin and hair products are major factors that will affect your results. It is important to be on a good home care regimen recommended by me as this plays the biggest role in getting your skin clear.

Is there any downtime or side effects?

There is minimal to no downtime required for these acne services. Some peels may cause slight flaking or peeling, redness, or sensitivity temporarily.
