Getting Rid Of Acne
What causes acne?
The exact cause of acne is unknown, but it is believed to be due to a combination of genetic and hormonal factors. Acne occurs when the hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. This can lead to the formation of blackheads, whiteheads, and pimples.
Several factors that can trigger or worsen your acne:
Hormonal changes, such as those that occur during puberty or pregnancy
Certain medications, such as corticosteroids or lithium
Certain cosmetics or skincare products
Poor diet, lack of physical activity, and stress
Acne is not contagious and cannot be passed from one person to another. However, if you have acne-prone skin, you may be more likely to develop acne if the condition runs in your family history.
Treatment Options
Laser treatment is an effective, safe, and fast way to destroy your acne. It uses intense light beams to heat the oil glands connected to your pores and follicles, reducing their risk of bacterial infection and future breakouts.
Laser Therapy
Chemical peeling treatments for acne mostly use salicylic acid. With its comedolytic (removes blackheads) and anti-inflammatory properties, this peeling solution exfoliates skin cells and unclogs the pores of dirt, oil buildups, and other impurities.
Chemical Peeling
The DMK enzymes facial treatment work within your skin to strengthen the structural integrity of the dermal layer. This ensures a healthy environment for cells to live and thrive. The DMK enzyme is designed to unclog pores, and dissolve dead skin cells and impurities trapped within the skin. It restores oxygen and vital cellular nutrition while balancing pH levels in the skin. In turn, the procedure results in a reduction of blemishes and acne breakouts.
DMK Enzymes Treatment
Radiofrequency microneedling uses innovative radiofrequency energy to heat the deeper layers of the dermis, thus increasing elastin and collagen production. This in turn tightens and rejuvenates the skin, which results in even skin tone and reduced appearance of acne scars, fine lines, and stretch marks. It is safe for patients with fairer and darker skin types as well as those with rosacea or active acne lesions.
Radiofrequency Microneedling
Dermapen works by gently creating a series of tiny little injuries to kick-start the skin’s healing mechanisms. As a result, stimulated skin initiates a healing response by producing new collagens and elastins, as well as, stimulating immune reaction, which in turn helps to treat and resolve active acne. In addition, the needling creates a series of channels to the skin’s mid-layer so that serums or creams can reach the deeper layers of the skin.
