Does getting an acne treatment reduce recurrence?!!

The reason I am getting acne treatment is not just to get rid of the current breakouts, but to prevent them from appearing as frequently in the future. However, I am wondering if receiving treatment really reduces the likelihood of recurrence.
I especially get recurring acne in the same spots around my chin and mouth. Just when I think it's gone, it pops up again, and when it subsides, it appears once more... It's truly an endless cycle, and I'm so exhausted. It feels like it gets better for a while when I just extract the pimples, but since it doesn't feel like a fundamental solution, I've started considering proper acne treatments.
I've heard that acne treatments like Agnes or PDT reduce the sebaceous glands themselves, leading to less recurrence. Is that actually true? The cost is quite high, so I really want to know if it is effective. I would feel so disappointed if I paid for an expensive treatment only to have the same problem recur.
For those who have actually received acne treatment, please share your reviews on whether your breakouts have definitely decreased compared to before!! I'm also curious if you were satisfied enough to choose the same treatment again~~

I'm worried about dryness and redness on my cheeks in late autumn. What kind of care would be best?[6]
CommentsIt seems wise of you to be cautious with exfoliation when your cheeks feel tight and red due to the heating. I would also like to take your advice on whether I should consult about soothing care or a skin booster first.230026.11.03 - 03CommentsSince pitted marks, red marks, and pores differ from each other, it would be helpful if you could be explained the order in which they should be approached. Please also ask them to check first if any inflammation remains.250026.11.04

- 02CommentsI totally relate because I've been getting tiny bumps on my jawline lately too. Even though I make sure to apply soothing line products, they don't seem to go down. I'm curious to know what kind of care you would recommend.370026.11.02

- 01CommentsI'm also stressed because I keep getting acne, but it seems like getting laser treatments consistently is important. I think it will get better after receiving more than 10 sessions.2180026.10.26

- 03CommentsI imagine you are really curious if you can manage both blackheads and acne at the same time. It would be a good idea to consult with them to see if they can be treated together after assessing your skin condition.710026.10.25
