My cheeks are completely covered in bumpy, red, tiny pimples; should I get acne treatment? ㅠㅠ
Lately, due to accumulated fatigue and a lot of overtime work, both my cheeks and the area around my jaw have completely broken out with several bumpy, red, tiny pimples and blemish marks ㅠㅠ It feels so unpleasant to feel the rough texture with my fingertips every time I wash my face, and even when I apply makeup, my complexion looks so messy because the unevenness is so noticeable, so I get depressed every time I look in the mirror lol. I'm scared that if I try to squeeze them out with a cotton swab at home, they will definitely go deep, leaving scars and dark discoloration ㅠㅠ I'm thinking of going to a dermatologist to get professional extraction, acne scaling, and soothing packs. Acne treatment If I sign up for a package, will the redness subside quickly and my skin recover without scarring? How many sessions does it usually take to get clear, peeled-egg-like skin back? If anyone has consistently received acne treatment, please give me some advice.

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.220026.11.03 - 03CommentsIt’s amazing that you’ve consistently managed with just soothing care without touching your hands. I’ll check the reply when it comes up regarding whether the extraction comes first or if the peeling is done together.200026.11.03

- 02CommentsWhen breakouts occur, I'm always confused about the order of things—whether to exfoliate first or moisturize first. It's nice to find out that you share the same concern.590026.10.30
- 03CommentsIt would be difficult to determine the required number of sessions from the start, as it varies depending on the level of inflammation, the presence of scars, and management goals. It would make comparisons easier if you asked about the timing of the interim evaluation and the criteria for modifying the plan during the consultation.530026.10.28
- 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
- 02CommentsI 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
- 03CommentsI get breakouts on my chin before and after my period exactly the same way, so it really feels like I'm on the same page. During your consultation, please ask about the best order to manage the current inflammation and remaining marks, as well as available time slots after work!1310026.10.25
