Depending on individual skin condition, temporary redness, dryness, or a sensation of heat may occur. These are usually mild, but if you experience severe or unusual reactions, consult your medical provider.
How is acne treatment different from acne scar treatment?
Acne treatment focuses on controlling inflammation and sebum, while scar treatment involves procedures specialized for skin regeneration and scar improvement.

Most procedures involve only mild pricking or a sensation of heat, which is generally tolerable. The level of discomfort can be adjusted according to individual pain sensitivity.

What should I be careful about when receiving acne treatment?
It is important to use sun protection before and after the procedure, avoid harsh exfoliation, and follow moisturizing instructions provided by your medical provider.

When can I wear makeup after acne treatment?

Is acne treatment the same as facial sebum removal?
Acne treatment includes sebum control, but facial sebum removal focuses only on reducing sebum secretion. Acne treatment requires a more comprehensive approach.
