Acne keeps breaking out. What kind of treatment would be helpful?
My skin condition has deteriorated a lot lately, perhaps due to the hot weather.
In the past, I would only get one or two pimples occasionally, but recently, I’ve been constantly getting acne on my chin and cheeks, which is a concern. It feels like as soon as one pimple disappears, another one pops up in a different spot, so it’s not easy to manage. I wash my face thoroughly at home and use acne products, but I haven't seen as much change as I expected.
I am particularly stressed because the red breakouts linger and leave marks easily. Even with makeup, the uneven areas aren't covered, making my skin look even messier. I feel like there is a limit to how much I can manage on my own, so I am considering getting a dermatological procedure.
I am wondering if getting just extractions is sufficient for acne, or if it is more effective to receive laser treatments or other procedures along with them. I have heard that recommended treatments vary depending on skin type, so I would also like to know which procedures offer the highest satisfaction rate if I want to improve both inflammatory acne and acne scars.
If anyone has consistently managed this, please share your experiences regarding the treatment cycle, recovery period, and effectiveness!
