Cystic Acne Treatment in Myeongdong
Re:Berry Clinic – Myeongdong Branch
Manage painful, deep breakouts with customized cystic acne treatment at Re:Berry Clinic in Myeongdong. This medically guided approach focuses on reducing inflammation, controlling oil activity, and preventing scarring for long-term skin stability.
What Is Cystic Acne?
Cystic acne is a severe form of inflammatory acne characterized by:
- Large, painful, deep-seated nodules
- Swelling and redness
- Lesions that do not easily come to a head
- High risk of acne scarring
Unlike mild acne, cystic acne develops deeper within the skin and often requires professional medical treatment.
What Causes Cystic Acne?
Cystic acne can be triggered by multiple internal and external factors, including:
- Hormonal fluctuations
- Excess sebum production
- Bacterial overgrowth
- Chronic inflammation
- Stress and lifestyle factors
Because it originates deep in the sebaceous glands, over-the-counter products are often insufficient.
How Cystic Acne Treatment Works
Treatment focuses on calming inflammation, reducing oil gland activity, and preventing scar formation. Depending on severity, options may include:
- Targeted anti-inflammatory injections
- Acne-specific laser therapy
- Sebum-control treatments
- Oral or topical medical therapy (when appropriate)
- Barrier-repair and calming skincare programs
By addressing both active lesions and underlying triggers:
- Pain and swelling decrease
- Breakout frequency is reduced
- Risk of permanent scarring is minimized
- Overall skin balance improves
Consultation time: 15–30 minutes
Procedure time: 15–30 minutes
Sessions required: Varies depending on severity
Recovery: Mild redness or tenderness may occur
Maintenance: Ongoing acne management plan recommended
