Acne Treatments

There are few things worse than waking up in the morning and finding that your face is riddled with acne. But what do you do when the problem becomes chronic and appears prominently on different parts of your body daily? This is an issue that many people dealing with active acne experience every day.

What is Active Acne?

Active acne is an inflammatory skin condition that affects a large population of teenagers and adults around the world. It can appear in many different areas of the body, including the chest, neck, back, cheeks, and forehead. For many, active acne can be a significant source of psychological and physical problems, such as anxiety, depression, and scarring.

Luckily, these problems can be averted with proper treatment. Under the right guidance, your acne can be treated.

How to Treat Active Acne?

The Beverly Hills-Wilshire Cosmetic Institute provides many different treatments for active acne. While some are more effective than others, we recommend the following for those experiencing different levels of acne:

• Medical Grade Skincare Products
• Chemical Peels
• Microneedling
• IPL Photofacial
• Laser Skin Resurfacing

Medical Grade Skincare Products: NOON Aesthetics

Dr. Hassid of Beverly Hills has extensive experience working with medical grade skincare products. He recommends the NOON Aesthetics product line to his patients.

The NOON Aesthetics skincare line provides solutions for various skin problems such as signs of aging, sun damage, skin elasticity, and active acne. NOON Aesthetics provides a solution to acne to help you battle those breakouts for clearer, smoother skin. Using their DermShield™ technology, the active ingredients in the NOON skincare line treat acne effectively, without any unwanted side effects such as irritation, burning, redness, or discomfort.

IPL Photofacial

An IPL photofacial is an innovative cosmetic treatment that utilizes light-based technology to lighten skin pigmentation and boost collagen production. This treatment can precisely target different areas of the body to rejuvenate the skin cells in the targeted area. It’s a useful solution for those suffering from severe acne and acne scars.

Chemical Peels

A chemical peel is a skin treatment that utilizes controlled chemical solutions in varying strengths to cause superficial damage to the skin which works to stimulate its natural healing process. The type of peel used will depend on the condition of the skin and the patient’s aesthetic goals.

Microneedling For Acne Scars

Microneedling for acne scars also called collagen induction therapy, is a cosmetic treatment designed for the removal of deep-seated acne scars. During this treatment, we make use of a small device that delivers tiny needle pricks to the skin to stimulate its natural healing response. Each time the needle makes contact with the skin, they deliver bipolar RF energy into the cells.

Not only will this treatment raised depressed areas of the skin caused by acne scarring, it will also help treat the early signs of aging.

Laser Skin Resurfacing

To perform laser skin resurfacing, we utilize the innovative SLIM MiXto SX resurfacing laser. This advanced laser is the latest in skin resurfacing technology and can deliver exceptional results while keeping patients more comfortable. The energy delivered from the laser can provide an improvement in one’s skin tone and texture and smooth deep acne scars.
