Condition
Acne can need more than a routine skincare change. Assessment helps identify severity, triggers, scarring risk, and whether prescription or procedural care should be considered.
Acne is a common inflammatory condition affecting hair follicles and oil glands. It can involve blackheads, whiteheads, inflamed spots, deeper nodules, pigmentation after inflammation, and scarring.
At The Dermatology Group, acne care starts with diagnosis and severity assessment. Treatment may involve prescription medicines, trigger review, maintenance planning, and later procedural options such as laser or radiofrequency microneedling for scars or texture when the skin is stable.

Scar prevention and later scar treatment planning once inflammation is controlled
Assessment is useful when acne is painful, persistent, scarring, affecting confidence, or not improving with previous treatment.
Active inflammation often needs to be controlled first. Scar and texture options can then be considered with skin type, downtime, and goals in mind.
