🏥 Acne Treatment at a Dermatology Clinic
Acne requires proper diagnosis to determine the underlying cause before beginning appropriate treatment.
😱 Squeezing pimples without care or relying solely on over-the-counter medications are examples of improper approaches that can make acne worse.
To help prevent lingering redness or post-inflammatory pigmentation, or in more severe cases crater-like acne scarring, we recommend consulting a specialist clinic rather than attempting self-treatment.
📊 Common Types of Acne
Skin concerns related to acne can broadly be categorized into the following three types based on how far the condition has progressed.
🟢 Non-inflammatory acne (early stage)
🔴 Inflammatory acne (moderate to severe)
⚫ Acne Scars (difficult to treat)
Non-inflammatory acne represents the early stage, where care focuses on removing keratin buildup in the pores to prevent the growth of acne-causing bacteria (C. acnes).
As the condition progresses, inflammation develops, and if it becomes severe, acne scars can remain even after healing, making treatment more challenging.
💡 We recommend seeking a dermatological assessment and starting treatment before reaching that stage.
🟢 Non-Inflammatory Acne
🔴 Inflammatory Acne
⚫ Acne Scars
❓ Causes of Acne
Common contributing factors to acne development include the following.
😰 Stress
😴 Lack of sleep
💧 Dry or oily skin
⚖️ Hormonal imbalance (disruption in hormone levels)
😷 Prolonged mask wearing
These factors are associated with excess sebum production.
However, they are each only one of many contributing factors and do not represent the root cause on their own.
💡 On the other hand, the underlying drivers of acne worsening are generally considered to be the inflammation and abnormal keratinization triggered by C. acnes bacteria.

⚡ IC Clinic’s Acne Treatment | RF Needle “Agnes”
Our clinic offers a targeted acne treatment approach using the radiofrequency (RF) needle device “Agnes.”
🎯 Delivering radiofrequency energy precisely to the sebaceous glands to disable them — addressing a key source of acne at its origin — is the hallmark of Agnes treatment.
✨ Because it acts directly on the dermal layer, this treatment is used for cases where surface-level skincare alone has not been sufficient.
The needles used with “Agnes” are extremely fine, offering the following advantages:
😊 Downtime tends to be minimal
👍 Impact on daily activities is generally limited
✨ Scarring is less likely to occur
🔄 Effective for recurring acne
💫 Improvement in the appearance of fine lines and sagging may also be expected
📅 Treatment typically requires approximately 3 to 5 visits to complete.
🌟 Key Points of Agnes Treatment
✅ Targets the root cause, helping to reduce the likelihood of recurrence
✅ Relatively short downtime, allowing you to return to daily life promptly
✅ Completed in approximately 3–5 sessions
✅ Benefits extend beyond acne — skin-beautifying effects may also be expected
💡 Also recommended for those who have not seen sufficient results with other treatments
🗓️ Treatment Process
✨ Trust IC Clinic for Your Acne Treatment
⚠️ Acne that is left untreated or handled incorrectly can persist for a long time, and once it develops into post-inflammatory pigmentation or crater-like scarring, treatment becomes considerably more difficult.
However, when appropriate treatment is started while symptoms are still mild, earlier improvement without lasting scars may be expected, and it can also help reduce the risk of recurrence.
💡 If you are concerned about your acne, please do not hesitate to reach out to our clinic.
👨⚕️ We will propose an acne treatment plan tailored to your individual condition.
