Active Acne Treatment
Southlake & DFW Area
At Medrein Health & Aesthetics in Southlake, TX, we offer Active Acne Treatment to reduce breakouts, calm inflammation, and promote clearer, healthier skin.
What Is Active Acne Treatment?
Active acne treatment refers to advanced laser and non-invasive therapies designed to reduce acne breakouts, control oil production, kill acne-causing bacteria, and promote skin healing.
These treatments, such as laser therapy, light-based treatments, and medical-grade skincare, help clear active acne, minimize inflammation, and prevent future breakouts for clearer, healthier skin.
Causes of Acne
Besides excess sebum production, the following factors can cause acne:
- Hormonal changes
- Medications
- Environmental changes
- Stress
- Eating more junk and oily foods
- Inflammation of the deeper skin layers
- Decreased collagen production
- Bacterial infection
Active acne Treatment
We believe everyone’s skin and acne concerns are different. That’s why we offer various acne treatments to be able to cater to all of your anti-acne goals, whether it is reducing sebum production, treating skin inflammation, or increasing collagen production.
Our acne treatments include:
Topical Medications
Topical medications increase your cell turnover, helping your body to naturally expel the dead/damaged skin cells, thus preventing pores from becoming clogged while encouraging the growth of new skin cells.
We may prescribe the following topical medications:
- Retinoids
- Salicylic Acid
- Sulfa
- Benzoyl Peroxide
- Dapsone
- Antibiotics
- Azelaic Acid
Oral Medications
Oral medications help reduce sebum production and redness in the skin while mitigating acne caused by bacterial infection. They also help with the skin’s healing process.
We may prescribe the following oral medications:
- Antibiotics (doxycycline, minocycline, or tetracycline)
- Anti-androgen drugs (spironolactone)
- Oral contraceptives (progestin and estrogen)
- Isotretinoin (Accutane)
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels are an effective acne treatment that works in all skin tones and types.
They reduce acne and acne scars while improving the skin texture and complexion. Plus, they treat sun damage, wrinkles, and age spots, resulting in softer, radiant-looking skin.
Laser Therapy
Laser therapy reduces acne scars and boosts your body’s collagen production, resulting in clearer, vibrant-looking skin.
The increased collagen production also helps tighten and lift your sagging skin, improving its appearance.
Fotona SP Dynamis Laser
This groundbreaking, next-gen laser treatment combines two complementary wavelengths and works in four different modes to heal the skin from the inside out.
It reduces acne, acne marks, age spots, wrinkles, and dark circles, resulting in beautiful-looking skin.
Post-Care for Active Acne Treatment
All our acne treatments are non-invasive, presenting no adverse complications and requiring no downtime, so you can resume your routine activities immediately after the treatment.
Nevertheless, you must follow some aftercare tips to help reduce the risk of complications while expediting healing, including:
- Keep the treatment area moisturized and clean.
- Don’t scratch/rub/touch your skin.
- Avoid sun exposure (however, if you have to go out, be sure to apply sunscreen to protect your skin).
- Don’t apply makeup for at least 24 hours.
- Scabs may form post-treatment. Avoid picking these scabs, as they can cause infection and scars while delaying the healing process.
