Effective acne and rosacea care starts with the right diagnosis. Some patients need prescription medicines, some need procedural support, and some need both at different stages.
For scarring, pigmentation, redness, and texture, the clinic can discuss advanced laser and device options such as resurfacing, picosecond laser, IPL, Nd:YAG laser, or radiofrequency microneedling. Suitability depends on skin type, active inflammation, treatment goals, and acceptable downtime.
Care is planned around diagnosis, suitability, expected downtime, and any information already available.

Can acne scarring be treated at the same time as active acne?
Often the active acne needs to be controlled first. Once inflammation is stable, a clinician can assess scarring pattern, skin type, downtime, and suitable treatment options.
Is redness always rosacea?
No. Redness can have several causes, so a diagnosis matters before choosing topical medicines, laser, IPL, or other treatment.
