Acne is complex and personal. At Dermalogic, we take a comprehensive approach that includes medical-grade skincare, prescription support, in-office treatments, and lifestyle guidance. Whether you’re a teen or adult, we build a plan to help you achieve clear, healthy skin with long-term success.
Are you a candidate for acne treatments? If you are dealing with blackheads, whiteheads, hormonal breakouts, cystic acne, or lingering acne marks, you are a candidate. Acne affects teens and adults across every skin type and tone, and the right plan can calm active breakouts while preventing new ones. At Dermalogic, we customize treatment to you. Plans can include laser treatments like Laser Genesis or IPL to reduce redness and support collagen, chemical peels to clear pores and smooth texture, medical facials such as DiamondGlow for deep cleansing and serum infusion, prescriptions when indicated, and medical grade home care to keep progress steady between visits. If you want clearer skin with a plan that fits your life and your skin, we will meet you there.
At Dermalogic Laser Center we offer a full spectrum of evidence-based acne treatments designed to fit your skin type, concerns, and lifestyle. Our options include:
Laser and light therapies such as Laser Genesis, IPL Fotofacial and microneedling RF to calm inflammation, shrink oil production, improve tone and reduce the appearance of acne scars.
Chemical peels customizable medical-grade peels tailored to clear congestion, refine texture and fade post-acne pigmentation while minimizing downtime.
Medical facials including DiamondGlow, which blends exfoliation, extraction and infusion of SkinMedica serums to cleanse pores, boost radiance and support clearer skin.
Injectables and prescriptions when appropriate we integrate prescription treatments to combat bacteria, regulate oil and correct hormonal triggers for persistent or cystic acne.
Home care regimens including high-potency medical-grade skincare and a personalized at-home acne kit curated by Dr. Amy Krachman to support your skin between in-office treatments.
Combination plans: We believe the best results come from layering therapies thoughtfully, so we design holistic treatment sequences— for example, laser one session, peel the next, home maintenance every day—to achieve clearer, healthier skin over time.
Light-based laser acne treatments with Laser Genesis can be highly effective because of their twofold ability: The heat generated by the laser device destroys the bacteria that lead to inflammation. It also hinders sebaceous gland activity, which reduces oil production and helps to minimize pore clogging. Laser Genesis is anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory, helping to reduce bacteria in the skin, as well as reduce post-inflammatory pigmentation, making the skin appear less “angry.” Other energy-based treatment options include IPL (intense pulsed light) for generating skin-clearing heat and RF microneedling for triggering increased collagen production and other skin-healing benefits. IPL can also treat hyperpigmentation, the reds and browns, left behind by acne breakouts.
Chemical peels are facial treatments that remove the outermost layers of skin, with the depth of the treatment depending on the strength of the peel. Clearing away dead skin cells, debris, and excess oil can prevent the buildup that often leads to plugged pores that trap bacteria and cause acne lesions to form. All peels at Dermalogic Laser Center are medical-grade and applied directly by our licensed medical aestheticians. In addition to keeping pores open to minimize future breakouts, peels also enhance the skin’s ability to absorb topical products and reveal a smoother, healthier, more youthful-looking layer. After a series of chemical peels, patients often experience noticeably clearer and more radiant skin. The complexion appears refined, with minimal pores, a smoother texture,and a more even tone that radiates a healthy, youthful glow. The result is visible, drawing attention for all the right reasons!
Some patients benefit most from the tried-and-true method of topical acne medications. These may be a combination of prescription medications and medical grade topicals from Dr. Krachman’s curated product line. Topicals are applied directly to the skin to combat the factors that lead to bacteria growth, inflammation, and breakouts. After discussing your history of breakouts and determing the severity of your condition Dr. Amy Krachman will write the necessary prescription or recommend the right products for you. Topical acne treatments may be used on their own, but they pair especially well with other strategies, such as lasers.
Oral medications represent another longstanding acne treatment approach. Dr. Amy Krachman will prescribe specific medications as necessary, working very closely with each patient to determine the most effective strategy.
No matter which acne treatment approach is right for you, Dr. Krachman and her team will thoroughly explain the strategy and closely monitor and work with you throughout the process so that you can enjoy your results.
