I got acne treatment to get rid of my chin acne.

I'm the type of person who always gets breakouts around my chin before and after my period, so I've tried a lot of different methods, including squeezing them out, taking acne medication, using spot gels, and using ointments.

However, the effect was minimal, and the acne continued to appear only on my chin, so this time I went to a dermatologist and received proper acne treatment.

 

My skin isn't acne-prone overall, but it's the type that gets breakouts easily around my chin and mouth.

Until now, I've only used basic acne ointment and applied spot patches, and if that didn't work, I went to a dermatologist to get the acne extracted and get anti-inflammatory injections.

Because I kept getting acne on my chin, I even tried Minocin, a medication specifically for acne. It wasn't covered by insurance, so it was expensive, but ultimately, it didn't work. Later, I started getting acne again.

Dietary management is important for acne, but since I am already selective about what I eat, I was worried about how to effectively treat acne.

Due to repeated acne, the skin on my chin was already pigmented and dark even when I didn't have acne.

 

I looked into several dermatologists to see if there was a treatment program for acne only in the chin area, but most of them basically treat the entire face.

I don't have any acne on my forehead or nose, so I didn't really want to get it done on my whole face.

But after much searching, I finally found a dermatologist who specializes in laser acne treatment for the chin area.

 

 

 

 

 

The acne treatment program I received was

It was a 3-session laser treatment with basic skin care included.

Lasers can be used on the entire face, but I only had 50 shots on my chin.

It's not always good to shoot a lot

I liked that it was designed to be customized for each individual, as it was important to pinpoint the problematic area.

 

This is the condition of my jaw these days, and it's not that bad...

Sometimes it's worse.

And there were already a lot of stains around it.

 

 

 

 

The procedure begins 20 minutes after washing your face and applying anesthetic cream.

My pigmentation looks worse after washing my face...

The procedure took about 10 minutes.

After the procedure is finished, you can finish it off with a cooling pack and then leave the treatment room.

 

 

 

Of course it will be red right after the procedure.

Instead, it is a relatively non-irritating laser that allows you to wash your face on the same day and apply makeup the next day.

It's only been done once out of three times, so there hasn't been a dramatic effect yet.

The small red pimple that was coming up has gone down a bit.

 

 

This was my first time getting professional acne treatment, having only ever had acne extracted, and it was definitely good to get acne treatment that included aesthetics.

For those who have had acne for a long time and have trouble with pigmentation, laser acne treatment may be a good option since extraction and peeling alone are not enough.
