Acne That Keeps Coming Back? A Seoul Seongdong District Dermatology Acne Treatment Process That Also Considers Recurrence

Acne Program

Hello, this is Raon Dermatology in Seongdong District!

When you receive treatment, it may get better for a while, but if you are worried about acne that comes back over time, it may be time to change your existing treatment method, right? Treatment should consider not only acne that has already appeared, but also the possibility of acne that may develop in the future. Today, we’ll take a look at the "combination acne treatment" that considers both current acne and future acne at the same time :)

Why does it keep recurring?

As you know, acne develops due to surprisingly complex factors. It goes through a fairly complicated process in which dead skin cells build up inside pores, acne bacteria multiply, and inflammation is triggered. Because of that, if various variables are not taken into account, it can easily recur at any time. Just because you received treatment does not mean it is completely over. If the skin barrier is damaged or sebum secretion is not properly controlled, it can recur at any time.

In particular, when inflammation has been severe, it often leads to pigmentation or tiny scars. If this condition continues, the skin becomes more sensitive and vulnerable to external stimulation, causing acne to appear repeatedly. Therefore, when treating acne, consideration must also be given to methods that can block the possibility of recurrence.

Why does it keep recurring?

1. Gold PTT

First, the excessive sebum secretion, which is the most direct cause of acne, should be improved, right? That is possible with Gold PTT. Gold PTT is a treatment method that targets the sebaceous glands and acne bacteria themselves. It works by applying fine gold particles to the skin and then selectively heating them with a laser to eliminate both the sebaceous glands and acne bacteria at the same time! It is also useful for managing recurrent acne because it can be applied even to those for whom previous treatments were not sufficiently effective :)

It is especially suitable for skin with high sebum production and recurring inflammatory acne. In addition to controlling sebum, it also helps improve the overall oil-water balance of the skin and reduce the recurrence of breakouts. After treatment, skin texture also recovers to some extent, so it can be very helpful in many ways for people with acne-prone skin, right?

• Induces a photothermal reaction after fine gold particles penetrate

• Destroys acne bacteria and normalizes sebum secretion

• Also helps refine overall skin texture

2. Black Peel

Next, Black Peel focuses on correcting the environment itself that makes acne easily worsen. When impurities and dead skin cells build up inside pores, acne tends to get worse! Black Peel gently smooths overly thickened dead skin layers with a black vinegar ingredient based on natural organic acids.

It also uses low-irritation ingredients, so it can be relatively comfortable for sensitive skin as well. It does not stop at simple exfoliation; by improving the skin environment where acne tends to recur, it can also help prevent recurrent acne.

3. Genesis Toning

Genesis Toning is used to improve the red marks and tiny scars left after inflammation. It delivers heat deep into the skin using an Nd:YAG laser, inducing regeneration of the dermis. The stimulated dermis then actively produces collagen, and the effects of improving redness and residual marks appear together.

You can also expect improvement in skin texture and a more even skin tone, making it suitable for those concerned about marks left after acne. In particular, because it is a treatment that uses the regenerative power of the dermal layer, it has the advantage of being relatively easy to proceed with even when the skin is in a sensitive state. If it is combined with the two treatment methods mentioned above, the effect can be further maximized, right?

4. Acne Mark Laser

Lastly, for treating acne marks, various lasers must be used in combination depending on the skin condition. For example, vascular-targeting lasers are used for red marks, pigment lasers for brown marks, and fractional devices are also applied to improve tiny scars.

This combination treatment allows a customized approach according to the color or depth of the marks, and it also helps prevent progression into acne scars. Since each mark has a different color, size, and depth, the key is to combine the necessary lasers. Once the treatment of the acne cause has been completed to some extent, it is best to begin mark treatment right away, so please keep that in mind!
