Acne Facial
Our Acne Facial treats inflamed, irritated, acneic skin types and includes a detoxifying masque and soothing corrective & protective products. The combination of products helps to reduce oil without drying and gives the skin the hydration it needs. This treatment is ideal for the oily, acneic skin type sensitive to other products.
Cosmeceuticals
Moisturizers, cleansers, peels and other topical products are an important tool in controlling acne. Juvanew Medspa carries a complete line of prescription and non-prescription cosmeceuticals.
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion removes dead skin and helps prevent and dislodge follicle plugs. When used as part of an acne treatment program, microdermabrasion can significantly enhance the clearing of active pimples.

Juvanew Medspa offers a wide variety of un-buffered chemical peels suited to various skin types, including Acne Clarifying Acid, Salicylic Acid, TCA and Modified Jessner’s.
Laser Acne Treatment
Our Nd:YAG laser prevents and reduces active acne inflammation. It eradicates the bacteria causing the inflammation and also promotes collagen regeneration to improve the tone and texture and the skin. Redness lasting a few minutes after the procedure and mild discomfort are possible side effects. Many clients respond to laser treatments even when they have failed to respond to other treatments.

Causes of Acne
Acne forms along a hair follicle and its associated sebaceous gland. Sebaceous glands produce a substance called sebum, or oil. The hormonal changes of adolescence increase the size of sebaceous glands and increase sebum production. The following lead to the development of acne:

An overabundance of dead skin cells blocking hair follicles and cause a buildup of sebum. Sebum combines with the dead skin cells to form a plug of the follicle. The cause of the overabundance of dead skin cells and plugging is unknown.

A normal facial bacterium known as Propionibacterium causes acne to begin growing excessively in the increased sebum leading to inflammation of the follicle.
The inflammation leads to a breakdown of the follicle. When the follicle breaks down, the fatty sebum and skin cells erupt to the surface and form a pimple.
Excess moisture and skin irritation further increase the inflammation.

Prevention of Acne
Acne prevention requires a treatment plan to reduce the amount of dead skin cells and sebum.

1. Correctly formulated facial washes help to reduce skin oiliness and sebum production. Washes that contain salicylic acid are most effective. Washes that contain alpha hydroxyl acids (AHA) add to the effect. These acids also help to clean out follicles and begin the exfoliation of dead cells.
2. Exfoliating scrubs help prevent the buildup of dead skin cells and help prevent the blockage of the hair follicles. Higher concentrations of the acids mentioned above can be added two to three times a week to further remove dead skin cells and decrease sebum production. a
3. Avoid oil-based cosmetics. Unfortunately, some products used to conceal pimples actually worsen the problem. The use of Colorescience® Micronized Mineral Makeup avoids this problem. Colorescience® mineral sun protection can also be used by men to cover pimples.
4. Avoid excess moisture such as perspiration. The facial washes and exfoliants described above help control excess moisture. Using acid washes after exercise or sweating can also help.
5. Avoid skin irritation from excess scrubbing, helmets, pads and clothing. The use of oil-free moisturizers can also reduce the effects of skin irritation.

Acne Scars
Acne scars can be significantly reduced using a combination of techniques. Even the most severe cases of complex acne scarring can be precisely and rapidly treated using our erbium laser for skin resurfacing. Microdermabrasion and chemical peels decrease the depth of the scars, smooth the skin and help to even skin tone. Juvanew Medspa provides all of these procedures for our clients. A personal consultation can help determine the best regimen for you. Call 214-771-4611 to schedule a consultation.
