Our Story

Questions

Acne Treatment FAQ

Do I need a consultation first?

Yes. Every acne client begins with an acne consultation, in person or by phone, so we can build your plan and home-care regimen together.

What is the Acne Bootcamp?

Our most focused path: a professional acne peel every two weeks, chosen for your skin, alongside your Live by Skin home-care regimen.

How long does it take to clear acne?

Some clients clear in as little as 12 weeks, while others need longer. It depends on your acne type and severity, your home care and consistency, so we never promise a blanket timeline.

What is the difference between Bootcamp and monthly care?

Bootcamp visits are every two weeks for the most focused results. Monthly care is a gentler, ongoing rhythm, usually with an acne peel, or a HydraFacial or acne facial for milder acne.

Is there downtime after an acne peel?

Some flaking is a normal part of the process. Your esthetician will walk you through what to expect and how to care for your skin.

Can I do acne treatment virtually?

Yes. Virtual coaching begins with a consultation by phone, with photos sent beforehand, then a follow-up at two weeks and photo check-ins every other week for eight weeks. We find a good photo shows skin far better than a video camera.

Do I have to use your skincare products?

Yes. A complete Live by Skin home-care regimen lets us ensure the best results and adjust quickly if something is not working.

Can I start after Accutane?

We would love to help you plan your next step. In-office acne treatments usually begin about six months after isotretinoin, so schedule a consultation and we will map out the right timing for your skin together.

Can I have acne treatment while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Yes. We adapt your plan to keep you comfortable and safe, including choosing a pregnancy-safe acne peel.

What is the Acne Facial?

A relaxing, results-driven facial for acne-prone skin, with exfoliation, extractions, a customized mask, LED therapy and an acne peel. It begins with an acne consultation and your Live by Skin home-care regimen. For expecting clients, we can substitute a pregnancy-safe peel for an additional fee.

Do you treat back and body acne?

Yes. We treat acne on the back and body as well as the face.
