Frequently Asked Questions
How soon will I see clearer skin?
Every case is unique. While some patients see improvements after an initial session, lasting clarity often comes from a consistent treatment series over 3-4 months.
Are specific acne treatments painful?
Sensation varies by treatment. Laser therapies may feel like a rubber band snap, and extractions can cause pressure or tenderness.
Can you treat scars from old acne?
Acne scar concerns can be evaluated. Options such as Laser Genesis, microneedling, or staged skin treatments may be discussed to improve the appearance of texture, but response varies.
Do I need to change my skincare routine?
We often recommend medical-grade products to support your in-clinic treatments. We'll help you build a simple, effective home routine.
