The juvenile acne<\/strong> is the most common type. An estimated 80% of adolescents and young adults between the ages of 11 and 30 experience outbreaks of spots and blackheads at some point. Even so, some people develop acne after the age of 40 or 50; this is known as adult acne<\/strong>. It is usually linked to a genetic predisposition, hormonal factors, smoking, stress or certain medications.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

What is acne treatment at Ribe Clinic like?<\/h3>\n<\/div>

Light-based treatments for active acne are performed using IPL and\/or LEDs <\/strong>(low-intensity laser light) <\/strong>and, when marks or scars are present, we use non-ablative Fraxel fractional laser or ablative CO2 laser<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Acne treatment usually requires a combination of different techniques, so we can combine laser technology with medical peels, medication, creams and care guidelines<\/strong> for the patient to follow at home.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
