Acne & Acne Scarring
Acne not only affects teenagers, but can also be seen frequently in 20 and 30 year olds as
well. Oily skin is often a contributing factor.
Acne is characterized by pimples and occasionally by red bumps and cysts. Heredity plays a significant role in the severity of acne.
Proper care of the skin and the use of the correct skin products can help make a significant difference in the control of acne.
Patients should see a dermatologist if they cannot achieve full clearing of acne on their own.
Uncontrolled acne can eventually cause facial scarring in some patients. The
Fraxel laser is currently one
of the best available methods for treating acne scarring. After completing a series of four or five
Fraxel laser treatments, patients
can expect acne scarring to be significantly improved.
The procedures and products listed below have been carefully chosen because of their proven effectiveness. No one should have to
suffer from acne!
None of the above is intended as medical advice. If you have a medical concern, please consult your doctor.
