Body Acne Management (Back and Chest Acne)

Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic's Differentiated Management for Body Acne

Compared to the face, the skin on the back and chest

has a thicker stratum corneum, deeper pores, and higher sebum production.

As a result, acne that appears tends not to disappear easily and often leads to hyperpigmentation.

This is a major factor that causes discomfort for patients.

At our clinic, considering the structural characteristics and individual traits of body skin,

exfoliation, inflammation calming, comedone extraction, and skin recovery are comprehensively considered in

a body acne-specific management plan, through which we provide systematic treatment.

1. Jessner Peel Procedure

An Effective Method for Body Acne Management

The Jessner peel procedure

salicylic acid and lactic acid are combined,

and it is a peeling treatment that has been utilized for a long time in body acne management.

It is suitable for areas like the back or chest, where the stratum corneum is thick and pores are deep.

It can help improve chronic body acne.

It also contributes to alleviating post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) left by acne scars.

With a minimal recovery period after the procedure, you can comfortably receive treatment.

At our clinic,

we utilize the Jessner peel as an important foundational treatment for body acne management.

2. Body Aladin Peeling

Intensive Peeling Recommended for Prominent Keratosis Pilaris

For patients with severe keratosis pilaris or inflammatory acne,

or those who experience frequent recurrence of back acne,

a more effective peeling procedure can be considered.

Body Aladin Peeling is

a peeling treatment with enhanced exfoliating and sebum-dissolving capabilities compared to Jessner peel,

and its application is considered based on the patient's condition.

Back or shoulder areas with a thick stratum corneum

Cases accompanied by long-lasting hyperpigmentation

Frequently recurring inflammatory acne

As there may be a mild recovery period after the procedure, it can be considered if you desire more intensive improvement than with the Jessner peel.

3. Post-Procedure Skin Calming Process

Our Clinic's Unique Calming Method Using Cryo Calming Management and Jaundo Body Mummy Pack

Body skin, which can become somewhat sensitive after a peeling procedure,

needs to be quickly soothed to recover healthily.

At our clinic, we proceed with calming management in the following two steps after the Jessner peel procedure.

Cryo Calming Management

It quickly calms heat and redness, making the skin temperature comfortable.

Application of Body Jaungo Mummy Pack

Jaungo herbal extract sufficiently moisturizes and calms the skin, helping to protect the skin barrier.

We minimize skin irritation to ensure a comfortable feeling persists until the next day.

The approach of applying a refined calming process after peeling,

is how our medical team meticulously manages our patients' skin.

4. Body Acne Extraction – An area requiring careful consideration

Acne on the back and chest

if not properly extracted, scars, depressed marks, and hyperpigmentation is highly likely to result.

These areas have a relatively high risk of skin damage.

Our medical team carefully examines the skin condition rather than simply extracting.

Our medical team's extraction process is as follows:

If necessary, we first create an exit pathway with needling to prevent inflammation from rupturing within the skin.

Carefully applied needling

Considering the direction of pores and body hair, micro-needling is performed.

This helps to minimize the burden of skin damage.

We perform extraction in a way that leaves minimal scarring.

We consider ways to reduce the recovery period.

Body acne extraction is not just an option, but

a crucial step that requires careful consideration.
