After a treatment session, you may experience mild redness or slight peeling, depending on the procedure used. These effects are temporary and usually subside within a few hours to a couple of days. Over the following weeks, you’ll notice a reduction in active acne, improved skin texture, and fewer breakouts.

Understanding Acne: Causes and Why It Matters

Acne develops due to clogged pores, excess oil production, bacteria, and inflammation. Factors like hormones, diet, stress, and improper skincare can contribute to frequent breakouts. Additionally, Edmonton’s weather can play a role in acne flare-ups—cold, dry winters can strip the skin of moisture, leading to excess oil production and clogged pores, while hot, humid summers can increase sweat and bacteria buildup, triggering breakouts. Identifying your skin condition, triggers, and environmental factors is the first step toward an effective treatment plan. Learn more about various skin conditions here.
