Hello.

This is Kim Hawon from BeautysDoctor.

When treating people who are troubled by recurring acne,

there is a question I always hear at least once.

“Why does it keep coming back in the same spot?”

It is not simply a matter of skincare management,

because the same process

keeps repeating inside the skin.

That is why acne treatment is not just about

removing visible breakouts.

Understanding the flow inside the skin

comes first.

Today,

I will explain an approach to treatment

that goes beyond simple acne care

and also considers scars.

Why Acne Keeps Repeating Acne

does not have just one cause.

It repeats like a single process

as several stages continue in sequence.

Understanding this process

is the start of treatment.

1️⃣ Increased sebum production

The skin starts to become oily,

and the environment inside the pores changes.

2️⃣ Dead skin cell buildup and clogged pores

Sebum that cannot be discharged

accumulates inside.

3️⃣ Acne bacteria multiply

In a blocked environment,

bacteria multiply rapidly.

4️⃣ Inflammation occurs

As this process repeats,

it can lead to scars.

The important point is that

this flow does not get interrupted

and continues on.

That is why

one treatment alone

can have limitations. Treatment by Mechanism Acne treatment is not

simply about removal,

it should be approached

by breaking each stage.

1️⃣ Sebum control

When sebum increases,

all the processes move more easily.

So the first thing to do

is reduce sebum secretion.

Through treatments that target the sebaceous glands,

such as PTT (photo-thermal therapy),

or through sebum-suppressing ampoules and medication,

secretion is controlled.

The starting point of acne treatment

is sebum management.

2️⃣ Pore clearing

The more sebum there is,

the more dead skin cells build up

and pores become clogged.

If this state is left untreated,

it more easily leads to inflammation.

Depending on the skin condition,

peeling, extraction, and regenerative care

should be combined appropriately

to clear the pores.

The important thing is

to manage it in balance

without overdoing it.

3️⃣ Balancing bacteria

Acne bacteria are

bacteria that normally exist on the skin.

But when the environment changes,

they multiply excessively

and trigger inflammation.

If necessary,

short-term antibiotic treatment can be used together,

but the goal is not to eliminate everything unconditionally;

it is important to restore balance.

In the end,

normalizing the skin environment

is the key. Why It Leads to Scars

When acne repeats

or inflammation persists for a long time,

the skin’s structure itself is damaged.

As a result,

pitted scars,

red marks,

and pigmentation remain.

At this stage,

simple breakout treatment alone

is difficult to improve the condition.

Dermal regeneration is needed. Regenerative Treatment Approach In scar treatment,

how deeply and evenly

the stimulation is delivered is important.

The method used here

is the combination of Curejet and Juvelook.

Curejet

Using a high-pressure jet method,

the medication is delivered to deeper layers of the skin.

Because it can be delivered

without needles,

there is less irritation

and less recovery burden. Juvelook

A PDLLA-based

collagen regeneration treatment.

Rather than immediate change,

it works by gradually filling the skin

over time.

Over 3 to 6 months,

collagen is produced,

improving the skin structure. Why They Are Used Together

The delivery depth can be

set uniformly,

and natural regeneration can be encouraged

while reducing unnecessary damage.

As a result,

not only scars,

but also skin texture and tone

can improve together. Acne Treatment Should Be Different Acne may look similar on the surface,

but the condition inside the skin is different.

Whether it is a type with lots of sebum,

whether dead skin cells are the problem,

whether inflammation keeps recurring,

or whether it tends to lead to scarring

The treatment direction should change

depending on these differences.

With simple repeated treatment,

it is difficult to prevent recurrence.

A plan that breaks the cause is needed. If Scars Are Also Considered If scars have already formed,

the skin is in a state that needs regeneration.

At this point,

it is not just about calming the skin;

treatment that restores structure is needed.

Curejet and Juvelook

are among the options chosen in that process,

and the intensity and combination

vary depending on the skin condition. Key Summary Acne

requires process-based treatment.

Sebum

Dead skin cells

Bacteria

Inflammation

This flow must be interrupted

step by step.

Scars

should be approached with regenerative treatment.

Acne treatment is not

simply about making it disappear,

but a process of designing the cause.

If you have any questions,

please feel free to leave them.

I will guide you directly

depending on your condition.

Thank you for reading.
