Are you a teen who is searching for help with your acne? Do you have a teenage girl or boy whose self-esteem is decreasing due to frequent acne breakouts? Sometimes, teen facial acne can make teenagers want to hide in their rooms and never leave the house. Dr. Fitzgerald’s team of licensed aestheticians offers rejuvenating facials, including an advanced teen acne facial in Los Angeles.
If your skin is prone to acne and your facial pores are congested from excessive oil and sebum secretion, our aestheticians offer decongesting facials and HydraFacials to deeply cleanse your skin. After your facial, you can experience clearer skin and improved self-confidence.
A decongesting facial in Los Angeles deeply cleans the skin to treat teen acne. It often uses steam, exfoliation, and extraction methods to target elements that clog pores, such as oil, sebum, and dead skin cells. Impurities that clog pores can result in blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, and papules. During the facial, one of our aestheticians opens and unclogs your pores with gentle heat or steam. Then, the decongesting treatment delves deeper into the skin with noninvasive infusion applications to remove any remaining impurities. The stimulation from the infusion enhances collagen production, promoting healthy skin elasticity and smoothness.
Salicylic acid and glycolic acid, which help exfoliate and tighten pores, are commonly used in the decongesting facial process. After just one hour of this pain-free infusion treatment, you will notice less redness and inflammation, fewer skin breakouts, and a reduction in dark spots—mostly hyperpigmentation from scarring. Over time, this leads to a clearer complexion. Often, a Vitamin C infusion serum is applied to freshly cleansed skin to give the skin a refreshed tone and soft, supple texture.
A HydraFacial treats patients’ skin with “Vortex-Fusion technology.” It uses suction for extraction and special spiral-shaped facial tools to vacuum teen patients’ skin with a whirling motion to clean clogged pores. If your cosmetic aesthetician uses lactic acid, glycolic acid, or salicylic acid to treat more severe acne, they will follow up with a hyaluronic acid serum that matches your skin’s natural chemistry to help hydrate and soothe the skin.
Another method of cleansing facial pores to treat teen acne in Los Angeles is the use of oxygen delivery to the external layer of the skin. This technique is similar to hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). The result is greater healing within the skin’s capillaries and enhanced absorption of beneficial serums infused into the skin.
A teen acne facial in Los Angeles can help you achieve fresh, radiant skin in no time. The onset of puberty can mean spikes in hormonal production that cause skin breakouts. Both the decongesting facial and the HydraFacial can complement any oral medications you are already using for acne. Effective combination treatments can lead to glowing, dewy skin. You will no longer have to be anxious in social contexts or avoid leaving the house due to a lack of self-confidence, as results are generally immediate.
Our dermatology staff understands the importance of education. In addition to giving you a proper facial, we will teach you healthy skin care tips to treat or prevent acne. This may include not touching your face with dirty hands or popping pimples since additional bacteria will only exacerbate a breakout. Facial treatments for teens can be scheduled three or four weeks apart from one another. If you have any questions or concerns about teen acne treatments, we encourage you to speak with our office today.
