How a MedSpa Can Help Clear Acne

“Hello, acne, it’s you again.”

This is a conversation you may have had time and time again. Acne can sometimes feel like a bully that won’t leave you alone, or worse yet-  a recurring nightmare. Not only can acne put a damper on your confidence, but it can also be painful. 

Know that you aren’t alone in the fight against acne. Med Spas can help you say goodbye to acne once and for all by leading you on a personalized skin care journey of treatments and Medical-grade products. Here are some different treatments that target acne:

Laser Therapy

Laser Therapy is one of the most effective drug-free, wait-free, and side-effect-free options for clearing acne, no matter how severe the acne, and no matter what your skin type. Koru Medical Spa chooses the NeoClear by Aerolase, an effective, safe, and gentle laser for guests of all ages and all skin tones, and for all parts of the body. 

This new method of acne treatment that uses unique laser technology gently delivers powerful energy for quick, side-effect-free results. How does it work exactly? The laser energy destroys acne bacteria and reduces inflammation to control your current breakouts while decreasing sebum and oil output to lessen the likelihood of future breakouts. In addition, it helps generate new collagen, which diminishes acne scars.

Collagen Induction Therapy (Microneedling)

Once you’ve conquered acne, this doesn’t mean your journey is over. One of the worst side effects of acne is the permanent scarring that can often be left behind. Collagen Induction Therapy, other known as Microneedling, is one of the most effective ways to get rid of acne scars. 

Not all CIT pens are created equal! Koru Medical Spa uses SkinPen, the first FDA approved Microneedling device which can be used on all skin types and delivers minimal discomfort compared to other pens.

Skin Peels (Chemical Peels)

Skin Peels, or Chemical Peels, are another fantastic treatment for acne. Superficial peels that produce injury limited to the epidermis are safe and highly effective for mild to moderate acne, even in darker skin types. Common superficial peels include glycolic acid, salicylic acid, retinoic acid, lactic acid, and trichloroacetic acid (TCA) 10-35%. 

Medium depth peels which produce injury into or through the papillary dermis are effective in the treatment of acne scarring because of their deeper penetration into the skin. Because of their potency, medium depth peels are not always suitable for all skin types. We love Skin peels because they are one of the most effective and affordable forms of acne treatment.

DiamondGlow Treatment

The Diamondglow Tip helps to buff away old skin, clean pores, and infuse healthy serums into the skin.

The DiamondGlow is a new and effective non-invasive treatment to address all types of skin concerns, one of them being acne. This facial combines three key facial steps: exfoliation, extraction, and infusion. That is: buffing away old, dead skin; removing dirt and oil from pores; and applying a potent serum that can now more easily penetrate.⁠

The Pore Clarifying Pro-Infusion serum containing salicylic acid and other safe ingredients is pushed deep into pores with the pressurized diamond-tipped handpiece to clear pores and fight breakouts. The addition of a brightening serum can also fade existing acne scars from previous breakouts.

You may have tried all the heavily marketed acne lines endorsed by celebrities that swear their products work miracles, but nothing compares to prescription Medical-grade products. Let’s start by talking about the difference between products offered by licensed professionals versus drugstores.

Over-the-counter skincare is typically sold at drugstores and other retailers without the need for a prescription. Medical-grade skincare is supported by scientific research and is formulated for best results under FDA regulations to contain 99.9% pure ingredients, ensuring safety and effectiveness.
