Every successful Acne Program begins with a clear understanding of your skin. This virtual assessment is ideal for new clients considering the program and for anyone seeking personalized acne guidance without visiting the clinic.
During your virtual assessment, an Acne Specialist will:
Review your submitted photos and acne history
Evaluate your acne type and severity
Review your current and previous acne treatments, including topical treatments and medications
Identify individual triggers, including relevant makeup and hair products
Explain why past approaches may not have delivered results
Recommend adjustments for identified triggers and outline an effective acne-clearing approach
Receive expert guidance from wherever you are. Your assessment gives you a practical path forward and the option to continue with the Virtual Pro Acne Program.
Required for clients under 18: A parent or legal guardian must attend the full virtual appointment.
Your assessment tells us what your skin needs. The Virtual Pro Acne Program puts that plan into action with ongoing, personalized care. We don’t only address 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.
Regular Virtual Check Ups
Virtual visits are typically scheduled every 2–3 weeks; your progress is reviewed and your regimen is 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 next steps after your assessment, so you can move forward with a plan built specifically for you.

Visit Acne Clinic NYC for an in-person assessment of your acne type, severity, treatments, and individual triggers, with the option to add advanced digital diagnostics for a more detailed evaluation.
Clear answers to the questions clients ask most often before their assessment.
Clear photos, your history, and a live conversation allow your Acne Specialist to evaluate visible acne patterns, severity, previous treatment response, and possible triggers. If a hands-on examination or imaging would add value, an in-clinic assessment may be recommended.
Submit clear, unfiltered, makeup-free photos in natural light. Include the front of your face, both profiles, and close-ups of the areas that concern you so your specialist can review your skin before the appointment.
A virtual assessment can be a useful first step for many persistent or complex breakout patterns. Your specialist will review your history and visible concerns and will tell you if an in-person or medical evaluation is needed.
The virtual assessment offers personalized guidance from home using your photos and history. The in-clinic option adds a hands-on skin evaluation and can include high-resolution imaging and skin ultrasound.
Yes. Reviewing what you have already tried is an important part of the appointment. Your specialist will consider your response, consistency, irritation, and possible triggers before recommending practical adjustments.
