When dealing with acne-prone skin, it is important to work with skincare professionals who can guide you in the right direction based on the unique needs of your skin. Since acne-prone skin can be more sensitive and irritated naturally, trial and error without professional help may cause more harm than good. Our skincare professionals will be able to take a look at your skin and let you know what services we can offer, or they may refer you to a dermatologist if needed. Let’s discuss some of the products and services available for skin prone to acne and breakouts here at our spa in St. Pete.
How do we determine candidates for treatment?
Clients with very congested skin are great candidates for the products and services that we offer for acne-prone skin. Clients may also experience excessive redness and have large pores or excess oil production. If a client comes in with severe cystic acne or lots of hormonal acne, we will likely refer them to a dermatologist as we are committed to providing and recommending the best type of care for your needs.
Topical treatments and products for acne-prone skin
We offer a variety of services depending on the level of breakouts and specific needs of your skin. For clients with congestion and large pores, regular clearing facials are a great option as they provide exfoliation, deep cleansing, and extractions. Additionally, we may recommend a series of chemical peels for acne-prone clients to exfoliate more deeply and improve cell turnover for clearer, more radiant skin. To all of the clients described above, we would also likely recommend SkinBetter Science’s AlphaRet Clearing Serum.
Laser treatments for acne clearing and redness
Another option for acne-prone skin, especially those experiencing a lot of redness, is a BBL Clear laser treatment. When we perform BBL Clear at Coco Med Spa in St. Pete, the light from the laser targets several symptoms at once making it a fast and effective way to treat many concerns like:
Redness
Inflammation
Acne causing bacteria
Existing breakouts
BBL Clear also helps to regenerate cells for healthy future skin and it’s known for being quite effective on breakouts that have resisted other treatments.
Acne is a concern that so many people deal with at one point or another and we are always so happy to help clients experience relief from the discomfort of breakouts and watch their skin thrive as it heals and rejuvenates.
