About this concern
Active acne is more than a cosmetic issue — it's an inflammatory condition that requires a physician's eye. Our K-Beauty protocols address the root causes of breakouts while healing the skin barrier, preventing future congestion, and treating the marks left behind.
Our approach
Whether you're dealing with occasional breakouts, persistent hormonal acne, or severe inflammatory acne, our physician-directed approach combines the latest in laser science, K-Beauty chemistry, and medical-grade skincare to clear, heal, and restore.
We treat acne as a medical condition, not a cosmetic inconvenience. Every protocol begins with understanding — your skin type, triggers, hormones, and history — before we treat.
Treatment options
- Chemical Peel
The Chemical Peel is our flagship 4th-generation Korean chemical peel, specifically formulated to address active acne, congestion, and oiliness. Its alkaline pH technology and LHA chemistry create an environment that dissolves sebum plugs, kills P. acnes bacteria, and regulates oil production — all while respecting the skin barrier.
- Facials & Extractions
Medical-grade facials go far beyond what a standard esthetician facial offers. Dr. Kim's team performs thorough extractions using precise technique to clear blackheads, whiteheads, and closed comedones — the precursors to inflammatory acne — without causing trauma or post-inflammatory marks.
- Medical-Grade Skincare
Consistent daily skincare is the backbone of any acne treatment program. Dr. Kim prescribes and recommends medical-grade formulations — including prescription topicals when indicated — that work at a cellular level to prevent new breakouts and heal existing ones.
