Struggling with stubborn acne and not sure where to start? You’re not alone.
Acne occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. It can be frustrating to deal with, and you might already be familiar with the complications that can arise, like scars, keloids, or changes in skin color.
Four main factors cause acne:
Depending on the severity, acne can show up in different ways. You might notice whiteheads (clogged pores), blackheads (open plugged pores), papules (small red bumps), pustules (pimples with pus), nodules (solid, large, and painful bumps), or cystic lesions (pus-filled lumps).
At Enrichment Skin Solutions we can treat your acne in Brooklyn Park, and we’re here to help you find treatments and products that really work. For instance, topical retinoids like tretinoin have been a game-changer for many. Approved for acne treatment since 1971, retinoids help unclog pores, prevent new clogs, and treat inflammation. To use them effectively, apply a pea-sized amount to the entire affected area, start with every-other-day applications, and use a moisturizer regularly to keep your skin from drying out.
Hydrafacials can also make a big difference in your skincare routine. This multi-step process cleanses, exfoliates, removes debris, and hydrates your skin using peptide-infused serums. It’s a gentle but effective way to keep your skin fresh and glowing.
Another treatment to consider is microneedling. This creates tiny, controlled micro-injuries that stimulate your skin’s natural healing process. It boosts collagen, reduces inflammation, and helps regenerate your skin. You might also explore radiofrequency microneedling, which targets deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen, repair damage, and tighten the skin.
At Enrichment Skin Solutions, we’re dedicated to helping you achieve healthier, clearer skin. We’ll work with you to create a customized treatment plan that fits your needs. With our guidance, you can feel more confident in your skin every day.
