Cystic Acne

* Deep, painful cysts
* Significant inflammation
* High risk of permanent scarring

Best treatments:

* Dermatologist evaluation
* Oral medications
* Isotretinoin may be recommended
* Cortisone injections for particularly painful cysts

Comedonal Acne (Whiteheads & Blackheads)

* Whiteheads (closed pores)
* Blackheads (open pores)
* Small bumps with little redness

Best treatments:

* Retinoids (such as Adapalene or prescription Tretinoin)
* Salicylic acid (0.5–2%) to unclog pores
* Professional extractions
* Consistent skincare (results often take 8–12 weeks)

Post-Inflammatory Marks:

* Red marks (post-inflammatory erythema) that fade over time.
* Brown marks (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation), especially after inflammation.
* True scars, which are indentations or raised areas and usually require procedures such as microneedling.

Blackheads:

* Excess oil (sebum)
* Dead skin cells
* Sometimes bacteria

The dark color isn’t dirt. It’s caused by the oil and debris being exposed to air, where they oxidize and turn black.

Why do they happen?

Common causes include:

* Excess oil production
* Hormonal changes
* Dead skin buildup
* Using pore-clogging skincare or makeup

Best Treatment:

* Professional extractions
* Hydradermabrasion/HydraFacial-style treatments
* Medical-grade chemical peels (especially salicylic acid peels)
* Consistent medical-grade skincare

Pustules:

Pustules are inflamed acne lesions that appear as red, swollen bumps with a white or yellow center.

Pustules develop when:

* A pore becomes clogged with oil and dead skin cells.
* Bacteria multiply inside the clogged pore.
* The body’s immune system responds, causing inflammation and the formation of pus.

Professional treatments:

* Medical-grade chemical peels
* Blue LED light therapy
* Prescription topical or oral medications for moderate to severe acne
* Professional extractions (only when appropriate and performed by a trained professional) 07/11/2026

People ask me why I spend so much time learning about skin…

✨ Because this is my thing.

I don’t need to be good at everything.

I choose to be exceptional at helping people feel confident in their skin.

Every certification.
Every course.
Every treatment.
Every client.

This is what lights me up.

And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

🤍 Your skin deserves someone who’s obsessed with understanding it.

✨ Progress, not perfection. ✨

This IPL journey has been so rewarding to witness!

Each treatment helps target excess pigment caused by acne scarring and sun damage, allowing the body to gradually break it down over time. That’s why results continue to improve with every session—healthy skin takes consistency and patience.

Every treatment builds on the last, revealing a brighter, more even complexion. 🌿

Stay tuned as we continue this transformation! 💛
