Acne & Scarringconcerns.acne.hero.titleAccent
Break the cycle. Restore the texture.
Acne isn't just a teenage phase; it's a medical condition that affects confidence at any age. Whether you are fighting active breakouts or dealing with the scars they left behind, we offer a doctor-led path to clarity.
What Do You See?
Effective treatment starts with identifying the specific type of acne or aftermath you are dealing with:
Often, patients have a mix of these. Dr. Jiang customizes a plan to address them in the right order.
Why It Persists
Acne is a dysfunction of the pilosebaceous unit (hair follicle + oil gland).
Sebum Overload
Hormones trigger oil glands to produce sticky sebum, which traps dead skin cells inside the pore.
Bacterial Infection
C. acnes bacteria thrive in this oxygen-free, oily environment, causing inflammation and pus.
Collagen Damage
Severe inflammation destroys the collagen support structure. When the skin heals, a 'dent' (scar) is left behind.
Genetic Factors
Pore size and oil production rates are largely hereditary. It's not your fault.
Asian Skin & Scarring
Asian skin is more prone to Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH). This means even minor acne can leave brown marks that last for months. Furthermore, Asian skin can be sensitive to aggressive CO2 lasers, making non-ablative RF Microneedling (Sylfirm X) the safer, superior choice for scar revision.
Problem Zones
Acne affects areas with the highest density of oil glands.
T-Zone & Cheeks
HighMost common for cystic acne and visible scarring.
Jawline
ModerateHormonal acne often flares here, especially in adult women.
Back & Chest
Moderate'Bacne' can leave significant scarring and keloids.
Clear, Repair, Renew
We use a 'Stop & Repair' strategy: Stop the active breakouts medically, then repair the texture physically.
Medical + Aesthetic Integration: As a medical clinic, we can prescribe Isotretinoin (Accutane) for internal control, while using advanced devices for external repair.

đź’ŠMedical Intervention (The MD Advantage)
Prescription Medication
Dr. Jiang can prescribe topical retinoids, oral antibiotics, or Isotretinoin (Accutane) for severe, resistant cases.
Scar Subcision & Filler
For deep rolling scars, we physically release the tethered tissue and place a drop of filler to lift the depression instantly.
The Acne-Free Protocol
A typical journey for a patient with severe acne and scarring.
Medical Expertise
MD-Led Treatment
Medispas cannot prescribe Accutane or antibiotics. We tackle acne as a medical condition, not just a cosmetic one.
Scar Specialists
We understand that scarring is multi-dimensional. We use subcision for depth, RF for collagen, and Lasers for color.
Safe for Darker Skin
We avoid aggressive ablative lasers that risk permanent hypopigmentation or hyperpigmentation on Asian skin.
Long-Term Management
We don't just clear your skin; we teach you how to maintain it with medical-grade skincare (ZO Skin Health).
