What kind of treatment would be good for seeing results in acne treatment?
I am stressed because I keep getting acne on my chin and cheeks lately. In the past, I would only get one or two and they would go away quickly, but recently, once they appear, the red marks linger for a long time, and it feels like they keep popping up in similar spots, so I am considering getting acne treatment.
I looked into the types of acne treatments available at dermatology clinics, and I found there are more options than I expected, ranging from extractions and scaling to lasers and sebum control. I am wondering which treatment would be most effective to start with, given that red acne keeps popping up like it is now. I would also like to know if getting just extractions is helpful, or if I need to receive other procedures along with them.
Also, when starting acne treatment, how many sessions do I usually need to see noticeable results? I feel like I need to receive treatment regularly rather than just once or twice, so I am also curious about the typical intervals between sessions.
I am concerned about the redness and skin texture that remain after acne subsides, so I am wondering if these issues can be managed along with the acne treatment. My skin tends to be sensitive, so I am worried about redness or peeling after the procedure. I would appreciate reviews from those who have actually received this treatment and what their experience was like.

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 - 02CommentsWhat kind of skincare is good in this case?450026.11.02

- 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.520026.10.28
