What Causes Acne Flare-ups?

Acne is typically caused by a combination of genetic factors, irritants, and stress. Often, you can blame several of these issues when you experience a flare-up. When flare-ups occur, signs of acne become hard to ignore. Face and forehead breakouts can be especially prominent and troubling. Typical signs include the appearance of whiteheads, blackheads, bumpy skin texture, and tender lumps on the skin.

How Do We Address Acne?

Finding the right treatment for your skin begins with an evaluation. During your visit to one of our locations, our expert team will evaluate your skin and determine the best course of action based on your acne severity. In most cases, a combination of in-office and at-home treatments may be needed to help you get the clear skin you deserve. Our options include:
