Acne can be a difficult thing to do with, especially if you start noticing breakouts in adulthood. Unsightly blemishes that makeup can’t quite cover can hurt your self-esteem. Scarring after the breakouts have cleared can also do damage to your confidence.

IPL
This treatment is a great option to address breakouts and inflammation. There is little to no downtime associated with treatment, and most people only need a few sessions before they see optimal results.
IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light and it is a non-invasive way to kill the bacteria in the skin that causes acne. IPL may not be the right choice for everyone, but it is something to consider if over-the-counter topical treatments have not been effective.
Microneedling
Microneedling is an effective treatment for acne and acne scars. Scars left behind from breakouts can appear as hyperpigmentation or deep, pitted spots in the skin. The tiny needles on the device create micro-channels in the skin, which promote the production of collagen and elastin.
Collagen and elastin are essential building blocks of the skin, and they contribute to a smooth, youthful-looking face. This treatment is beneficial for individuals who are looking for an all-natural way to rejuvenate their skin.
ResurFX
ResurFX is a laser treatment from Lumenis that can address damaged skin, such as acne scars. The non-ablative laser helps to non-invasively rejuvenate the skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production.
When collagen and elastin are regenerated within the skin, pitted acne scars will start to smooth over. More treatments may be necessary than with an ablative approach, but ResurFX features less downtime.
CO2 Resurfacing
This treatment uses an ablative laser to remove the top layer of damaged skin. Scar tissue and other damage will be erased, and new, healthy skin cells with begin to appear. This treatment has much more dramatic results than the others on this list, but it also comes with more downtime.
Chemical Peels
Much like CO2 resurfacing, chemical peels remove the top layer of skin to stimulate healing and rejuvenation. Peels use a chemical acid solution rather than a laser to remove scars and other blemishes. Chemical peels can vary in strength, so your treatment can be customized depending on the type of results you are looking to achieve.
Facials
Certain facials can work wonders to calm inflammation and soothe acne breakouts. Regular facials can help you to keep your skin in check. Most facials are designed for individuals with relatively minor breakouts. Facials can help reduce whiteheads and blackheads by clearing congested pores.
Microdermabrasion
Manual exfoliation is a great way to clear dead skin cells and debris without using chemicals or acid solutions. Microdermabrasion uses fine crystals to gently abrate the skin and reveal fresher, glowing skin underneath.
