Procedure and Recovery
Our acne therapy begins with a thorough consultation to understand the nuances of your skin’s reaction to hormone therapy. We then craft a personalized acne treatment plan that may include medical-grade topical treatments, oral medications, or advanced therapies like chemical peels or laser treatments, specifically chosen to combat hormone-induced acne effectively.
Recovery and aftercare vary based on the selected treatment. Most acne solutions allow for immediate resumption of daily activities, with guidance provided on skin care routines to enhance and maintain results.
Acne therapy is generally well-tolerated, with minimal risks. Some treatments may cause temporary redness or sensitivity, which quickly subsides.
