Clearer skin, fewer
breakouts, and less
scarring over time

Acne is not just a few spots. It can be painful, unpredictable, and exhausting, especially when it keeps returning or leaves marks that take months to fade. Many people try product after product, then feel stuck when nothing really changes. The truth is, acne is not one single condition, and that is why random routines often fail.

At Mayam Aestetic, acne treatment starts by understanding what type of acne you have, what is triggering it, and what your skin can realistically tolerate. The goal is to calm active breakouts, protect the skin barrier, and reduce the chance of marks and scarring.

What acne can look like

Acne is commonly grouped together, but different acne types need different plans. For example, inflamed cystic acne is treated differently from blackheads and clogged pores, and hormonal breakouts are not managed the same way as acne caused by irritation or heavy products.

Acne concerns often include:

  • Whiteheads and blackheads (comedonal acne)
  • Inflamed pimples and pustules
  • Painful deep bumps (nodules/cysts)
  • Back and chest acne
  • Post-acne marks and pigmentation
  • Early scarring or uneven texture

Treating the wrong type the wrong way can worsen inflammation and increase marks.

Why acne keeps coming back

Breakouts are usually driven by a mix of factors, such as oil production, clogged pores, bacteria, and inflammation. But the “hidden” triggers matter too: hormones, stress, sleep, diet patterns, certain skincare ingredients, and even over-cleansing can keep acne active.

Common reasons acne becomes persistent:

  • Hormonal fluctuation (often jawline and chin)
  • Skin barrier damage from harsh products
  • Incorrect use of active ingredients (too strong, too often)
  • Comedogenic makeup or sunscreen
  • Chronic inflammation that never fully settles

This is why a structured plan beats trial-and-error.

How we approach
acne at Mayam Aestetic

Acne treatment is built around three priorities: stop new breakouts, calm inflammation, and protect your skin long enough for it to heal properly.

Your plan may include:

  • A clear routine that your skin can handle

    We simplify first. Many acne patients are using too many products, which keeps the skin irritated. Your routine is adjusted to support the barrier while still treating acne effectively.

  • Targeted medical treatment when needed

    Depending on acne type and severity, treatment may involve topical prescriptions, oral medication, or a combination. The goal is control, not “quick fixes” that rebound later.

  • In-clinic treatments to speed up improvement

    For many patients, in-clinic treatments help reduce congestion, calm inflammation, and improve marks and texture.

Options may include:

  • Professional deep cleansing and extraction (when appropriate)
  • Chemical peels selected for acne-prone skin
  • LED or calming therapies for inflammation support
  • Microneedling or RF microneedling for acne scars (once acne is controlled)
  • Fractional laser options for texture and scarring in selected cases

Not every patient needs every treatment. The order matters, and the skin must be ready.

Post-acne marks and acne scars are treated differently

A common frustration is “my acne is gone but the marks stay.” Marks are not the same as scars.

  • Marks (red or brown) are usually post-inflammatory changes. They fade, but they need the right support and sun protection.
  • Scars are texture changes in the skin. They usually need targeted procedures such as microneedling, RF microneedling, or laser, planned across multiple sessions.

Treating scars while acne is still active often backfires. Control first, then repair.

What results should feel like

Good acne treatment is not only about fewer spots this week. It is about fewer flare-ups next month, less inflammation, and a skin routine that does not trigger more breakouts.

  • Many patients notice progress in stages:
  • Less swelling and fewer painful breakouts
  • Reduced oiliness and fewer clogged pores
  • Marks fading more evenly
  • Gradual improvement in texture and tone

Consistency is what makes acne improve. Even excellent treatments fail if routines keep changing every few days.

A practical note
about timelines

Acne typically needs weeks, not days. You may see early improvement, but stable control often takes time. Follow-ups allow the plan to be adjusted based on your skin response, not guesswork.

Acne treatment that
doesn’t overwhelm you

At Mayam Aestetic, we keep acne treatment structured and realistic. You will know what you’re using, why you’re using it, what to expect, and when to come back. The goal is clearer skin that stays clear, and fewer marks left behind.
