Acne and Acne Scarring
If You Have a Scar, You Have a Story
Whether the story starts with acne or is something completely different (we’ve heard a lot), we know that for some, scars can be difficult to live with. Scars can affect your appearance, often making patients feel self-conscious. Whether the scars are on your face or body, we can help.
What Is Acne and Acne Scarring?
Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. It can result in pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and in severe cases, cysts. The most common form of facial scarring is acne scarring, which can be difficult to erase. These scars form when acne lesions are irritated or recur frequently, leaving blemishes that change the texture of your skin and provide a rough, uneven texture.
Understanding Acne Scarring
The scars that are left behind after treating acne can significantly affect your skin’s texture and appearance. Our certified aestheticians offer skincare treatments that help rejuvenate skin damaged and scarred by acne. Start with a complimentary consultation to understand your best treatment plan.
