'I had acne treatment briefly before,

but I couldn't tell

whether it was actually working...

They said it was improving,

but I was confused about what I should use to judge that.'

Because acne is not something like blood pressure or blood sugar, where you can clearly see improvement in numbers, it is hard to tell exactly how much and in what way it is improving during treatment.

As a result, you may wonder whether the treatment is going well, or whether the clinic you carefully searched for is really good.

Since acne does not improve immediately with a sudden poof! after treatment, it can be difficult to assess within a short period of time.

So today, we will look at Jamsil acne treatment methods and also go over ways you can check for yourself whether the treatment process is progressing well.

How can you tell whether it is going well?

  • Acne treatment methods

  • Check the speed and degree of sebum buildup

Acne treatment methods

First, let’s take a closer look at acne treatment methods.

The process of acne formation can be summarized as pores becoming blocked due to excessive sebum secretion, followed by the proliferation of acne-causing bacteria within the hair follicle and an inflammatory response.

So, treatments that directly target the sebaceous glands at the start of this chain reaction, such as NeoBeam and Agnes, are representative options.

First, NeoBeam is a procedure that weakens the function of the sebaceous glands by delivering a 1450nm wavelength laser to them.

Because the laser energy reacts only with the sebaceous glands without affecting other areas of the skin, there is less concern about skin damage.

As the sebaceous glands receive the heat stimulation from the laser, they become smaller, and in the process, the amount of sebum they produce gradually decreases.

Agnes involves inserting an insulated microneedle deep into the sebaceous gland and then using radiofrequency (RF) energy emitted only from the needle tip to selectively coagulate only the problematic sebaceous glands.

Because the insulated needle is inserted exactly to the depth of the sebaceous gland, it also does not affect other areas of the skin. The energy acts only within the sebaceous gland.

Agnes is relatively easy to apply even to small or localized areas, so it is especially effective when acne keeps appearing mainly in specific spots.

Check the speed and degree of sebum buildup

Now let’s go over the points you can check yourself to see whether acne treatment is going well.

First, observe the speed and amount of sebum buildup after the procedure.

As the benefits of laser-based sebaceous gland management accumulate, the first change you are likely to notice is the sebum secretion pattern.

If sebum begins to decrease, it means the first link in the chain reaction that causes acne is weakening.

It is not that difficult to check this in daily life.

  • Has the time after washing your face before your skin starts to feel oily become later than before?
  • Have the number of times you use blotting paper, or the amount you use, decreased?
  • Aside from the T-zone, where sebaceous glands are especially concentrated, has oiliness begun to decrease in the other treated areas?

If you notice even small changes like these, it is reasonable to think that changes are gradually happening beneath the skin.

Because these changes are not measured numerically, it is a good idea to remember a baseline from the beginning.

For example, it would be easy to compare by saying that in the past your blotting paper was soaked before lunchtime, but now you only need it in the afternoon.

Rather than judging progress every day or every two days, it is more accurate to group what you check each day over at least a one-week period and judge the overall trend.

Changes in how acne appears

During treatment, rather than feeling discouraged that acne is still appearing, it is important to look at how it appears and how it goes away, even if acne does come up.

First, if it starts to resolve at the stage of a small bump without developing into a cyst or inflammatory acne due to deep suppuration, that is a positive sign.

If even mild acne clears up faster than before, that is also a good sign.

Also, if the size of the acne that appears becomes smaller and the pain becomes less severe, you can consider the treatment to be progressing well.

Again, it helps to create a baseline in your mind before treatment.

For example, if acne used to appear on the chin and stay as a very red and painful lesion for at least several days, but now it settles down quickly, that is a good way to check.

Our eyes are not very good at catching changes in things we see every day, so if possible, it also helps to take periodic photos under the same lighting.

Changes in the locations where acne had been recurring

It is also a good idea to pay close attention to where acne appears during treatment.

This is because if acne that repeatedly appeared in the same spot after sebaceous gland treatment no longer develops there and instead starts appearing in a different location, it may be evidence that changes are taking place in the sebaceous glands of that area.

However, when treating a broad area like with NeoBeam, it may be more accurate to look at the overall density of acne distribution across the face rather than the movement of a specific point.

Today, we took time to organize a few points that can help you judge for yourself whether acne treatment in progress in Jamsil is going well.

Even just looking at the speed of sebum buildup, changes in how acne appears, and the degree to which recurring spots have shifted can help with your assessment.

In fact, these are things that are not often explained well before or during treatment, so I hope you can use the information I shared today to help with your acne treatment.
