Is this acne treatment effective for recurring breakouts before menstruation?
2026.09.19 18:37
I usually don't have any major skin problems, but at certain times, a few small pimples repeatedly pop up on the sides of my nose and cheeks, so I am considering acne treatment. They naturally subside after a few days, but since this happens similarly every month, I am worried that it might leave marks.
Some are not severely infected, but they hurt a little to the touch, and others are small like millet seeds.
Can I expect acne treatment to be effective even with these recurring breakouts? I am also curious whether it is better to receive treatment when acne has already flared up, or to manage it for preventative purposes when there are no breakouts.
I would like to know if the management method can vary depending on the skin condition even after receiving acne treatment, and if describing the recurring patterns would be helpful for the consultation.

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’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.580026.10.30
- 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.520026.10.28
- 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
