A Skin Specialist in Seongdong-gu Explains Acne Treatment in Detail, from Causes to Scars

Acne Care

Hello, this is Raon Dermatology in Seongdong-gu :)

Today the weather is extremely hot. Temperatures will only keep rising from here, and around this time, what becomes a concern is acne! Acne tends to go through cycles of worsening and improvement throughout all four seasons, but it often becomes especially severe in summer. It’s a good idea to start managing it before summer gets even closer, right? Today, we’ll take a detailed look at everything from the causes of acne to pigmentation and scars!

Acne Care

Why does it keep coming back?

The reason acne keeps recurring is not simply due to sebum production. When pores become blocked or dead skin cells build up, creating an environment where breakouts can easily occur, acne bacteria multiply and the condition can spread into inflammation.

In particular, if cleansing or face washing is not thorough enough, demodex mites or acne bacteria can become more active.

Hormonal changes that affect the sebaceous glands, as well as daily habits such as lack of sleep, overeating, and smoking, are also factors that cannot be ignored. Repeated use of irritating cosmetics or products containing pore-clogging ingredients is also a problem! Since acne comes from the overall skin environment, care that addresses the root cause is essential.

Q. Why does it keep recurring?

• Due to excessive sebum production

• Keratinization of pores, bacterial growth

• Hormonal changes

• Improper lifestyle habits, cosmetic use

Gold PTT acne cause treatment

Then first of all, acne needs to be thoroughly treated so it no longer recurs, right? What is needed at this point is Gold PTT. Gold PTT is a treatment that uses gold nanoparticles that selectively react to the sebaceous glands to directly destroy them. Through laser reactions, it reduces inflammatory factors within the skin and helps prevent acne from recurring!

It is especially suitable for oily skin with active sebum production, and it is even better when used before the condition progresses into post-inflammatory pigmentation or scars. If you usually get frequent breakouts caused by sebum, we recommend starting sebum management with Gold PTT :)

• Apply gold nanoparticles to the skin

• Induce a photothermal reaction with laser

• Destroy acne bacteria and sebaceous glands in the pores

• Normalize sebum production

Black Peel to manage dead skin cells and sebum

Second, Black Peel is a peeling treatment that simultaneously addresses dead skin cells and sebum. It is a low-irritation peeling agent containing natural organic acids and black vinegar ingredients, gently removing waste buildup and old dead skin cells from within the pores.

As the skin surface becomes smoother and the pore environment improves, the likelihood of acne also decreases. It is especially suitable for people whose dead skin cells build up easily or whose pores often become blocked! For other skin types as well, we actively recommend it as part of acne treatment. After peeling, it is important to be diligent about sun protection and moisturization, so please keep that in mind :)

Aqua Peel

Aqua Peel is probably familiar to many of you! It is a treatment that supplies moisture while using AHA and BHA peeling ingredients to remove unnecessary waste without irritating the skin. Rather than directly treating acne, it is a treatment that helps indirectly! It also helps prevent excessive sebum production caused by lack of moisture.

Its biggest advantage is that it can help balance overall sebum levels while minimizing irritation to the skin~ Thanks to this, it can also be applied to sensitive or relatively dry skin! By cleansing pores and supplying moisture at the same time, it also helps improve the skin’s overall condition.

DDR Laser, pigmentation and scars

If the treatment has gone well enough that it no longer recurs, what comes next? The acne marks and scars across the face need to be treated. This is where the DDR laser is used. The DDR laser uses 585nm wavelength light to effectively improve post-acne red marks and pigmentation. It is especially recommended for people who have leftover pigmentation from acne and an uneven skin tone.

Meanwhile, when the DDR laser’s biostimulation mode is used, acne scars can also be treated. You can think of it as a principle that regenerates damaged areas through micro-thermal stimulation! It can effectively improve uneven skin caused by acne scars. That wraps up today’s content. Treatment can be complicated, but depending on how it is treated, anyone can see sufficient results. Don’t give up, and be sure to receive the treatment that suits you best!
