We’re not going to sugarcoat it: dealing with acne can be incredibly frustrating. If you’ve got acne-prone skin, it might feel like you’re stuck with it forever, but this doesn’t have to be the case.
At BYOU Laser Clinic, we provide a wide range of acne treatments, including facials and medical-grade solutions.
Below, we’ll explain how we can help restore your clear, smooth complexion.
1. Chemical Peels for Treating Acne
You’ve probably heard about chemical peels before. After all, it’s a tried-and-true facial treatment for acne.
During the procedure, a chemical solution is applied to the skin. This solution works on the surface layers, aiming to exfoliate, unclog pores, and calm inflammation.
In doing so, chemical peels kick cell turnover into high gear, and the healthier layer beneath is revealed.
Types of Chemical Peels
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to treating acne. Different chemical peels address different concerns:
- Superficial peel: best for mild acne and uneven skin tone
- Medium peel: can help improve the appearance of wrinkles and scars
- Deep peel: may work on severe acne scars
Chemical Peel Ingredients
Each treatment is tailored to the patient’s skin type and issues. The main substances used in chemical peels are:
- Alpha hydroxy acids: Solutions with glycolic, lactic, and citric acid
- Beta hydroxy acids: Usually salicylic acid
For more severe issues, stronger substances like trichloroacetic acid and phenol may be used. These are often reserved for medium to deep peels.
No matter which chemical peel is right for you, it’s best to leave it to the pros. A licensed aesthetician or dermatologist will know how to get the best results.
2. Aquapure Facial
Aquapure is a medical-grade treatment that works in three ways: it deeply cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates. This procedure blends several techniques, including microdermabrasion, chemical peels, extraction, and hydration.
You may be wondering, “How does it work for acne?”
The short answer is: Aquapure prevents acne from happening in the first place.
It deeply cleanses the skin, banishing impurities, dirt, and excess oil — everything that can clog pores. Beyond that, Aquapure also removes dead skin cells, whiteheads, and blackheads that can cause acne and dull your complexion.
Finally, Aquapure hydrates and nourishes the skin, which helps balance sebum production.
Aquapure Ingredients
Safe and effective ingredients are used during the Aquapure treatment:
- Hyaluronic acid: Infused into the skin to hydrate and rejuvenate. It attracts and seals in moisture to make the skin softer and smoother.
- AHA and BHA: These are used as part of deep cleansing and exfoliating, which improves skin tone and texture.
- Aquaxyl: BYOU specifically uses Aquaxyl to enhance hydration and improve the skin barrier. It works with hyaluronic acid and vitamins to make the skin more radiant.
3. Laser Treatment
For a more advanced medical treatment that delivers quicker results, we offer Laser Genesis.
This procedure delivers heat to the skin’s dermal layer to amp up collagen production. Think of it this way: it helps rebuild collagen in the body to improve the skin’s health.
Moreover, it helps both with active acne and acne scars.
Laser Genesis is safe and doesn’t damage the skin at all. Usually, 4 to 6 treatments are recommended, but the exact number varies depending on your specific concerns and goals.
Main Advantages
Laser Genesis doesn’t come with a downtime. That means, after the session, you can return to your normal everyday schedule. You might see some redness in the treated area, but that goes away in just an hour.
In addition to treating acne, Laser Genesis can also minimize enlarged pores, smooth out fine lines, and even help with sun damage.
