Acne Treatment of Minnesota

Acne affects the majority of teens as well as adults in their 20s and into their 40s. The most common areas where acne is present are the face, back, and chest. Acne develops in both males and females due to an increased level of male hormones, which triggers the oil gland to enlarge and produce an increased amount of oil. The oil gets trapped in hair follicles, plugging the pore and leading to the formation of a blackhead or whitehead. Bacteria then proliferate in the follicle, which eventually ruptures and forms a pustule or pimple.

Thankfully, there are many effective acne treatments to choose from that can immediately reverse the progression of blemishes as well as prevent the formation of new ones. It’s a good idea to start acne treatment as soon as possible because the results are immediate and you can prevent acne scarring.

At Hogue Cosmetic Surgery, we offer an array of acne treatments that are designed to get to the root of the problem so you can keep your acne under control. We offer topical, oral, and laser therapies for acne treatment.

Topical prescription creams and gels that can be used to treat acne include Retin A, Tazorac, and Differin, all of which help to unclog pores as well as prevent the formation of blackheads and whiteheads. Oral and topical antibiotics help to reduce inflammation and prevent scarring. However, oral and topical medications for acne come with side effects so it’s important to discuss them during a complimentary consultation at Hogue Cosmetic Surgery.

At Hogue Cosmetic Surgery, we provide our patients with effective, affordable acne treatments that utilize the latest in skin care technology. Most of the acne treatments we offer are non-invasive and have no downtime. Furthermore, they don’t cause the systemic side effects associated with some oral medications. You also have the option of complementing the treatments with topical and oral therapy for optimal results.

Treatments offered at Hogue Cosmetic Surgery that are effective in alleviating acne include Levulan Photodynamic Therapy, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and ProFractional laser skin resurfacing.
