LIV Wellness Lounge
Helping you feel
more confident in
your skin.
For many of us, acne is something that makes you feel self-conscious of your skin. While it definitely has an emotional effect, active acne can feel just plain painful. What’s even more frustrating is the scars it can leave behind.
Our skin professionals have multiple options for improving acne or acne scars to help you feel great in your skin from our personalized treatments!
Causes of Acne & Acne Scars
Root Causes
The root causes of acne are difficult to diagnose. Factors like genetics, diet, hormones, medications, and many other things can cause acne. In general, it’s important to understand that acne is inflammation from bacteria in the skin.
This is what causes redness, pain in the area, and overall irritation. Our acne treatments aim to treat this inflammation at the source.
Acne Scars
If you’ve suffered from acne for many years or you’ve had multiple, deep breakouts, you may have some acne scars. Acne scars can vary in their depth, texture, and prevalence in the skin. How well your skin healed itself once the inflammation went away is what causes acne scars. Manual picking, abnormal healing, and other factors can lead to scarring.
Solutions
The goal for improving acne scars is triggering your skin’s natural healing process.
We have several acne scar and acne treatments in LaSalle and Ottawa at LIV Wellness Lounge!
