I wonder if it is actually effective for treating acne.
Recently, I have become interested in acne treatment due to recurring adult acne. Unlike when I was younger, my skin recovers slowly, so once acne flares up, the red marks seem to linger for a long time. It is not just a matter of the marks disappearing after a few days; I am concerned because I am also worried about my skin texture and pigmentation issues.
My biggest question right now is about the effectiveness of acne treatment. I would like to know if receiving acne treatment at a dermatology clinic helps reduce inflammation quickly and if the recurring breakouts themselves decrease. It seems that simply applying ointment or changing cosmetics at home has its limits, so I would like to determine if professional care is necessary.
I would like to ask those who have received acne treatment. I am curious to know how long it took to feel the effects after treatment, and whether it helped prevent marks or scars. I would also like to know if the treatment is not too irritating for older skin, and if there was any severe dryness or redness afterward. I am writing this post to refer to actual experiences before consulting.
