Patient
Female, 28 years old
Initial concerns at the first visit:
- Moderate acne with multiple papules and pustules
- Closed comedones
- Enlarged pores
- Dull complexion
Diagnosis and Treatment Plan
We began with a comprehensive skin analysis using the VISIA analysis system, which revealed significant inflammation, overactive sebaceous glands, and signs of hyperkeratosis.
Based on the results, we created a personalized treatment plan to:
-
Clear the skin of comedones and active breakouts
-
Reduce hyperkeratosis
-
Normalize sebaceous gland activity
-
Improve overall texture and skin tone
In-Office Treatments
Atraumatic Facial Cleansing
-
3 sessions — once a month
-
Gentle yet deep pore cleansing to remove both closed and open comedones
Jessner Peel
-
3 sessions — once a month
-
Regulates sebum production, exfoliates the skin, reduces inflammation, and boosts cellular renewal
Home Skincare
We developed a tailored homecare protocol combining gentle basics and effective actives:
-
Cleansing: Mild cleansers without harsh surfactants
-
Hydration: Lightweight creams that support the skin barrier
-
Actives:
-
Tretinoin 0.025%
-
Niacinamide
-
Azelaic acid
-
All active ingredients were introduced gradually with close monitoring of skin tolerance at each stage.
Why these treatments?
Facial cleansing helped safely remove both closed and open comedones, relieving sebaceous gland congestion.
The Jessner peel delivered powerful anti-inflammatory and sebum-regulating benefits, accelerated skin turnover, and reduced post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Tretinoin and azelaic acid supported long-term improvement by targeting the root causes of acne.
