MEDfacials Acne Treatments

Acne (acne vulgaris) is a skin disease evidenced by clogged pores (blackheads and whiteheads),pimples, and larger cysts or nodules occurring mainly on the face, neck, chest, back, shoulders and upper arm area.

Many factors, including genetics, stress, hormones, environment, heavy and/or oily makeup, and diet, all play roles.

Acne is caused by dysfunction of the hair follicle and its accompanying sebaceous gland. The sebaceous gland produces sebum (the skins natural moisturizer), Acne begins to develop when keratin (found in hair, nails and the outermost layer of skin) over-accumulates and blocks the hair follicle (hyperkeratinization) obstructing the flow of sebum.
