How we evaluate acne
Your consultation includes a skin assessment, review of your current skincare routine, discussion of hormonal factors, diet, stress, and medications that may contribute to breakouts. For adult women, we also evaluate whether hormonal conditions like PCOS may be involved.
Treatment options
Treatment may include topical retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, or antibiotic creams for mild to moderate acne. For more persistent cases, oral medications including antibiotics or hormonal treatments may be recommended. We also address the skincare routine itself, helping you simplify to products that support rather than irritate your skin.
For acne scars, your provider can discuss treatment options during your consultation. Availability varies, so ask what is currently offered when you book.
Why treat acne in a medical clinic?
Acne is a medical condition, not just a cosmetic concern. At HealthOne, your provider can prescribe medications, order labs to check for hormonal causes, and coordinate with your primary care. If your acne is related to an underlying condition, we treat the cause, not just the symptoms.
What to expect
Many patients begin to see improvement within 6 to 12 weeks of starting treatment, though some need longer. We schedule follow-up visits to monitor progress and adjust the plan. Acne treatment often requires patience and consistency, and we guide you through each step.
Frequently asked questions
At what age should acne be treated?
Acne can be treated at any age. Early treatment prevents scarring and the emotional impact of persistent breakouts. We see teens and adults. A parent or guardian should call to book visits for patients under 18.
Will I need to take medication long-term?
It depends on your acne type and severity. Some patients need only a few months of treatment, others benefit from ongoing maintenance. We aim for the simplest effective plan.
Does diet affect acne?
For some people, high-glycemic foods and dairy may worsen acne. We discuss diet as part of your evaluation, but dietary changes alone are rarely sufficient for moderate to severe acne.
Can you treat acne scars?
Yes. Microneedling with PRP or exosomes can improve depressed acne scars by stimulating collagen. Multiple sessions are typically needed for best results.
