Acne Treatment

There is no single best treatment, because the right plan depends on your acne type, its severity, and your skin. In our practice we combine medical-grade chemical peels, professional extractions, cortisone injections for painful cysts, and customized acne facials, and we coordinate with a dermatologist for severe or cystic acne.

For a single painful cyst, a cortisone injection can calm it within a day or two. For acne overall, there is no overnight fix. Lasting improvement comes from a consistent series of treatments combined with good home care and sun protection.

Yes, we perform professional extractions. An acne facial is a deep cleanse and targeted exfoliation with sterile, professional extractions to clear clogged pores, customized for acne-prone skin and often paired with a peel.

Microneedling helps the texture and early scarring that acne leaves behind, but it is not used over active, inflamed breakouts. We treat active acne first, then address texture and scarring.

It depends on your plan. Chemical peels start from $85 and microneedling starts from $175.* Cortisone injections and acne facials are priced at your free consultation, where we map out the full plan. *Prices vary and are discussed at your free consultation.

For severe, cystic, scarring, or stubborn acne that needs prescription or systemic treatment. We will tell you honestly when that is the case and help coordinate your care.

Once active acne is under control, our acne scar treatment options can help soften and smooth the scars it left behind.
