Every successful Acne Program begins with a clear understanding of your skin. This in-clinic assessment is ideal for new clients considering the program and for anyone seeking expert guidance about persistent breakouts.
During your visit, an Acne Specialist will:
Assess your acne type and severity
Review your current and previous acne treatments
Evaluate topical treatments, medications, and treatment outcomes
Identify individual triggers that may be contributing to your acne
Explain why previous approaches may not have delivered results
Recommend practical adjustments and outline an effective acne-clearing approach
Choose the option that fits your goals. Start with the assessment alone, or add digital diagnostics for a more detailed evaluation.
Required for clients under 18: A parent or legal guardian must attend the full appointment and be available to make treatment decisions.
Your assessment tells us what your skin needs. The Pro Acne Program puts that plan into action with ongoing, personalized care. We don’t only treat active acne—we also work to help prevent future breakouts by identifying contributing factors, refining your regimen as your skin changes, and teaching you how to maintain your progress.
Personalized Acne Home Treatment
A skincare regimen specifically developed for acne-prone skin, combined with personalized acne medication selected for your acne type, skin condition, acne persistence, and treatment response.
Customized In-Clinic Treatments
Treatments are typically scheduled every 2–3 weeks and adjusted as your skin progresses. Most programs take 3–4 months, while more persistent or complex acne may require 6–8 months.
Breakout Prevention Strategy
We identify potential triggers in makeup, hair products, skincare, and daily habits to help reduce future breakouts and maintain clear skin.
Direct Acne Specialist Support
Direct access to your Acne Specialist via text throughout the program for questions, ongoing guidance, and regimen adjustments.
Nutrition & Lifestyle Support
Ongoing guidance from our Nutrition Specialist to identify and address dietary and lifestyle factors that may contribute to your acne.
Your Acne Specialist will recommend the most appropriate program level after your assessment, so you can move forward with a plan built specifically for you.
Every option begins with the same professional acne assessment. Choose the assessment alone, add advanced digital diagnostics, or pair it with a virtual nutrition, lifestyle, and lab review.
Our Virtual Professional Acne Assessment for Acne Program offers thoughtful, personalized guidance for clients who cannot come to the clinic. Meet with an Acne Specialist from the comfort of home and receive a clear plan for your next steps.
Clear answers to the questions clients ask most often before their assessment.
Yes. Your Acne Specialist reviews your previous products, medications, and treatment outcomes to understand what helped, what did not, and what may need to change before outlining your next steps.
Acne can be influenced by several factors at once. The assessment looks at your acne type and severity, treatment history, skincare, makeup, hair products, and daily habits to identify patterns that may be contributing to recurring breakouts.
Both options include the same professional acne assessment and personalized plan. Digital diagnostics add high-resolution skin imaging and ultrasound for a more detailed look at pores, redness, pigmentation, texture, and deeper concerns.
Yes. You will receive personalized recommendations, practical home-care guidance, and clear next steps. If ongoing care would be helpful, your specialist will also explain the most appropriate Pro Acne Program option.
Bring a complete list of the products and medications you currently use. Do not stop a prescribed medication unless the clinician who prescribed it tells you to; the clinic will let you know if any other preparation is needed.
No. You may book the assessment on its own. Your specialist will explain the available next steps, and you can decide whether ongoing program support is right for you.
