Regardless of your age, skin type and aesthetic goals, acne can be a frustrating condition that decreases your confidence and compromises your natural radiance. While many people struggle with acne breakouts on the face, it can be just as troublesome to deal with chronic acne on your back. Fortunately, we offer multiple treatments that can help you break free from bacne and enjoy clear, refreshed skin!
Let’s get into it:
What is back acne?
Since acne can develop anywhere you have oil glands in your skin, it’s just as likely to appear on your back as it is on your face. This is caused by oil, dirt, bacteria and dead skin cells clogging your skin’s pores, which can happen when sweat gets trapped under clothing. You might be dealing with one or multiple kinds of pimples, including:
- Blackheads, clogged follicles appearing as open bumps on the skin.
- Whiteheads, clogged follicles appearing as closed bumps on the skin.
- Cystic acne, which forms bumps below the skin’s surface.
- Nodular acne, which forms hard lumps underneath the skin.
How can back acne be treated?
- Back facials offer a luxurious and refreshing way to maintain healthy-looking skin on your back. Our bacne facials include the traditional back facial, the exfoliating back facial ideal for soothing an itchy, dry back and the back acne facial, which features exfoliation, peel and extractions.
- Laser acne treatment can address both active acne and acne scarring by targeting the source of troublesome breakouts. We use a cosmetic laser to kill acne-causing bacteria and shrink sebaceous glands, decreasing oil production in the skin that contributes to the development of acne.
- BBL® photofacial might be your favorite treatment for pigmentation irregularities, but it can also be used to eliminate bacteria and prevent acne breakouts. Using multiple wavelengths of light energy, BBL photofacial reduces active acne, inflammation, redness and excess oil production.
- Microdermabrasion is a deeply exfoliating treatment that unclogs pores and removes dead skin cells, leading to fewer breakouts. Safe for any and all skin types, microdermabrasion offers long-lasting results.
