Operation Description

There is no one-size-fits-all procedure for treating acne. It is a carefully planned process tailored to the type and severity of acne, its underlying causes, skin condition, and individual lifestyle habits. Treatment may include topical medications, systemic therapy, hormonal regulation, and dermato-aesthetic procedures such as chemical peels, PRP therapy, or microneedling. The goal is to reduce inflammation, prevent new lesions, avoid scarring, and achieve long-term skin control.

Candidates

Ideal candidates for acne treatment are individuals with inflammatory lesions on the face, back, chest, or other body areas. Treatment is especially recommended for those with recurring inflammation, scarring, hormonal imbalances, or when acne significantly affects daily functioning and confidence.

Treatment may not be advisable during pregnancy or in individuals with chronic liver or skin conditions. A dermatologist consultation is mandatory before beginning any therapy.

Preparation

Before treatment begins, the dermatologist performs a thorough evaluation of the skin condition and gathers information about lifestyle, diet, and past therapies. In some cases, hormone testing, ovarian ultrasound, or basic lab tests may be necessary. Patient history is also important—understanding how lesions have evolved and what previous treatments were used helps shape a personalized plan.

An open discussion about expectations is crucial. Patients should understand that improvement is possible, but acne is managed gradually. Consistency and patience are essential for optimal results.

Operation time

Acne therapy may include:

  • Topical medications

  • Systemic treatments (oral antibiotics, hormonal therapy, or isotretinoin for severe cases)

  • Aesthetic procedures (chemical peels, microneedling, PRP therapy, biorevitalization)

Mild cases may respond well to topical treatments combined with skincare and lifestyle adjustments. More severe acne often requires systemic medications. Dermatologists may coordinate with gynecologists or endocrinologists when hormonal causes are present.

Office procedures, such as chemical peels or microneedling, help reduce inflammation and regenerate skin. While not substitutes for core therapy, they accelerate progress and enhance outcomes.

Recovery

There is no universal solution—therapy is always tailored to the individual case. Visible results usually begin to appear within 4 to 6 weeks, but significant improvement often takes several months. The dermatologist monitors progress and adjusts treatment accordingly.

Systemic treatments require regular lab testing. Procedures like chemical peels may cause mild flaking or redness. PRP and microneedling require a few days of gentle care and sun avoidance.

It is crucial that patients do not discontinue therapy prematurely. The most important phase—maintaining results—starts once the initial improvement is noticed.

Safety precautions

Home care should follow dermatologist instructions. Over-cleansing, harsh soaps, squeezing lesions, or sharing skincare products can worsen the condition. Sun exposure without protection can darken pigmentation and slow healing.

For systemic therapies like isotretinoin, strict compliance is essential—including pregnancy prevention, routine lab tests, and avoiding alcohol.

Price

Treatment cost depends on acne severity, treatment type, and duration. The price typically includes:

  • Initial dermatology consultation

  • Prescription of topical therapy and skincare advice

  • In-office procedures (as needed)

Additional costs may include:

  • Laboratory tests

  • Systemic medications (purchased separately)

  • Specialist consultations (if necessary)

A clear treatment plan and cost estimate are always provided after the initial consultation.
