Best Acne Treatments for Teens and Adults

It’s hard to be a teenager today – endless selfies, constant social media posting, air-brushed models, and ‘filtered’ influencers only add to the pressure on teens of needing to look “perfect”. And nothing can undermine a young person’s confidence in their appearance like acne!

And, teens aren’t the only group that may be afflicted by unsightly acne breakouts. Excess oil production, hormone fluctuations, and more can cause acne breakouts in adults, as well.

If you are an adult – or the parent of a teen or young adult – who is suffering from acne, AMAE Med Spa in Birmingham, MI offers the latest technologies and most advanced skin care treatments to both instantly reduce acne AND prevent future acne breakouts!

When you come to our modern Birmingham, MI MedSpa we will analyze your skin and offer the best treatment(s) and products available for your type of acne. Unlike other spas and salons, we are a Medical Spa supervised by a board certified physician – which means we can offer medical treatments that regular spas, salons, and aestheticians cannot.

All patients are treated in a completely private and discreet room – and we guarantee that you (or your teenager) will leave with clearer, smoother skin  … that will be much less prone to future breakouts. We will also establish a regular treatment plan to can keep your skin looking attractive and acne-free for all those important high school moments: prom, homecoming, prom, graduation pictures, plays, concerts, dates, and of course, Snapchat and selfies!!

Microdermabrasion Facials for Acne

One very effective skin care treatment we offer at our MedSpa for getting rid of acne is the microdermabrasion facial. Dermabrasion is a non-invasive – but very powerful – exfoliating treatment that cleans out clogged pores AND removes the dead skin that can contribute to future outbreaks. Patients leave after their first facial with a smoother, brighter, and more even complexion.

If you are suffering from acne, don’t be fooled by drug store “kits” or over-the-counter products that you use at home. If drug store products worked, everyone would have nice skin. You have probably even already tried several drug store or online acne products with unsatisfying results. This is because non-professional acne products and procedures are both weaker and more superficial than the microdermabrasion treatments performed by a medical professional.

Standard Microdermabrasion Facials for Acne 

Standard Microdermabrasion facials for acne use “sandblasting” that sprays tiny aluminum oxide crystals across the face to deeply but gently exfoliate the outer layer of skin – then suction is used to removes the dead skin cells as well as unclog pores.

Diamond Microdermabrasion Facials for Acne  

Diamond Microdermabrasion Facials for acne use a specialized piece of equipment with a diamond tip that gets closer into small areas around the to the eyes and mouth.

As well as cleaning out clogged pores to remove active acne and prevent prevent future acne outbreaks, dermabrasion facials can also remove or reduce  scars, pockmarks and unevenness caused by previous acne outbreaks.

Chemical Peel for Acne Treatment

Chemical Peel for Acne Treatment is another effective option for addressing acne-prone skin and improving overall skin health. During a chemical peel, a customized solution containing exfoliating ingredients such as glycolic acid, salicylic acid, or lactic acid is applied to the skin, causing the outermost layer to peel away. This process helps to unclog pores, remove dead skin cells, and reduce inflammation, leading to a clearer complexion with fewer breakouts. Chemical peels can be tailored to the specific needs of each patient, making them a versatile and customizable option for acne treatment.

Ellipse IPL Acne Treatment

Ellipse IPL Acne Treatment utilizes Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology to target the bacteria responsible for acne breakouts and reduce inflammation in the skin. The IPL device emits pulses of light energy that penetrate deep into the skin, targeting the sebaceous glands and reducing oil production.

Additionally, IPL treatment helps to stimulate collagen production and promote cell turnover, leading to smoother, more evenly toned skin. With a series of treatments, patients can experience significant improvement in the appearance of acne lesions, as well as a reduction in redness and inflammation – in addition to a reduction in acne scars from previous breakouts.
