Acne

Acne is a common skin concern and can be a difficult one to treat as it is very specific to each individual. Acne occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. It causes whiteheads, blackheads or pimples. Acne is most common among teenagers, though it affects people of all ages. Effective acne treatments are available, but acne can be persistent. The pimples and bumps heal slowly, and when one begins to go away, others seem to crop up. Depending on its severity, acne can cause emotional distress and scar the skin. The earlier you start treatment, the lower your risk of such problems.

 

Typically, a combination approach to tackle acne is best. Beginning with your consultation at Hartwater Aesthetics, one of our providers will develop a medical grade skin care regimen that will target acne and kill bacteria on the surface of the skin. We will also develop an in-office treatment plan to clear up your skin and target acne scars.
