There are many underlying factors that can contribute to the development of acne. Once thought to be a problem of youth, many adults continue to develop and suffer from acne well into adulthood. Some of the contributing factors include:
- Hormones throughout adolescence and adulthood
- Changes in hormones due to pregnancy
- Medication can cause acne or retrigger it
- Genetics
- Bacteria or infection
- Hair follicles that become plugged with oil or sebum
- Oily skin
- And more

While the risks are minimal and the side effects are few and far between, there may be some discomfort or irritation at the treatment site following treatment. This is common, and many patients report that the feeling goes away shortly after treatment. Laser treatments are non-invasive and provide effective relief from skin conditions and disorders that might impact your quality of life and self-esteem. You may experience some slight swelling of the area being treated and some tingling sensations of the skin. These side effects will not last long and do not leave any scars behind. Whether you suffer from teen acne, adult acne, or have long outgrown your acne and want to manage the look of scarring on your face; we can help.
