If you’ve struggled with acne, you’re not alone. This troublesome skin condition affects people of all ages and can cause a variety of symptoms, including pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and cysts.

Is Acne Treatment Right for Me?

Acne treatment may be suitable for individuals who:

  • Have mild to severe acne
  • Have acne scars or other skin imperfections related to acne
  • Have not seen improvement with over-the-counter acne treatments
  • Want to improve the overall appearance of their skin

It is important to note that acne treatment may not be suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions or those who are pregnant.

Your Initial Consultation for Acne Treatments

For those looking for acne treatment in the Chicago area, we recommend visiting one of our five locations for an initial consultation. We also offer virtual consultations for your convenience. We will assess your skin type and acne severity to develop a treatment plan that is best suited for your needs. In some cases, this may involve a combination of multiple treatments. However, we understand that acne often includes symptoms like sensitivity and pain. For this reason, we strive to make every acne treatment as comfortable and painless as possible. We want you to feel assured and confident and are here to ensure all your questions are answered.

The Day of Your Acne Treatment

As mentioned, the procedure for acne treatment depends on the specific treatment plan that is recommended for you. Some common acne treatments we provide include:

  • Topical medications: creams, gels, or lotions that are applied directly to the skin to reduce inflammation and kill bacteria.
  • Chemical peels: a procedure that involves applying a chemical solution to the skin to remove the top layer of dead skin cells and promote the growth of new, healthy skin cells.
  • Oral medications: medications that are taken orally to reduce inflammation and kill bacteria from within the body.
  • Laser therapy: a non-invasive procedure that uses laser technology to target the sebaceous glands in the skin and reduce inflammation and bacteria.

Our team will work with you to determine the best treatment plan for your specific needs and goals.

Recovery and Results

In general, most acne treatments require little to no downtime, and patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the treatment. For topical treatments such as creams or gels, patients may experience some mild redness or peeling of the skin in the treated area. This is a normal part of the healing process and usually subsides within a few days. For more invasive acne treatments such as chemical peels or laser therapy, patients may experience some redness, swelling, or peeling of the skin in the treated area.

The recovery time can vary depending on the strength of the treatment and the individual's skin type. It is important to follow our post-treatment instructions, which may include avoiding direct sunlight, wearing sunscreen, and using gentle skincare products. Acne treatments may require multiple sessions to achieve optimal results. It is also important to maintain a consistent skincare routine and avoid picking or squeezing acne lesions, as this can lead to scarring or further breakouts.
