Acne Removal & Laser Acne Removal in South Florida

Acne is the term for plugged pores such as blackheads and whiteheads, pimples, and even deeper cysts that occur on the face, neck, chest, back, shoulders and even the upper arms. Acne plagues approximately 20% of the population, most commonly people with an influx of hormones such as teenagers and pregnant women. In fact, by their mid-teens, more than 40% of adolescents have acne severe enough to require some treatment by a skin care professional.

When severe, acne can lead to serious and permanent scarring. Sometimes even less severe cases can lead to scarring. Acne scars are caused by the body’s inflammatory response to acne lesions. There are two general types of acne scars: (1) depressed areas such as ice-pick scars, and (2) raised thickened tissue such as keloids.
