Frequently asked questions
Is acne treatment the same as acne scar treatment?
Active breakouts and lasting scars need different approaches. Bringing breakouts under control usually comes before treating scars. If texture is your main concern, explore our microneedling page and discuss your options.
Which acne appointments does Ava offer?
Ava’s appointment menu includes Acne Laser Treatment, Teen Facial and Salicylic Peel. Start with a consultation to discuss which option suits your skin and confirm what the appointment includes.
Can laser treatment clear every type of acne?
Laser and light treatments may help some acne, often alongside other care. They do not treat every type of breakout. Ask about the proposed treatment and what it can address; results vary.
When might I notice a difference?
Acne care takes time. Changes may develop over several weeks or months, depending on the approach. Give your plan time to work and discuss persistent or painful breakouts with a dermatologist.
What should I bring to a consultation?
Bring a list of your skin care products, medicines and previous treatments. Share any irritation, allergies or recent procedures, and ask about preparation, recovery and the current fee.
