At the Elizabeth Renee Esthetics we understand that Acne is caused from several different factors. Some clients only have to deal with clogged pores such as blackheads. One doesn’t need to have excessive oil to have these. For example, you may be a runner resulting in having oil that has oxidized or hardened in the pores. You may be wearing the wrong type of makeup or a moisturizer that is too occlusive and you end up with little white bumps called milia. If you have excessive amounts of “sticky” oil (sebum) it can back up in the pores (follicles). And if bacteria feed on this sebum, you get inflammation. The resulting blemish is the body’s attempt to fight off the invasive bacteria. Weak follicle walls can then lead to cysts. Perhaps your acne is genetic, hormonal, stress related, product related, related to diet or cosmetics. The estheticians at Elizabeth Renee know how to choose the correct homecare that for your particular type of Problem Skin.

Controlling acne is like managing your weight. There is no quick fix plan. You need a keen eye for understanding the triggers for your particular skin and choose treatments that are customized for that skin type. At Elizabeth Renee Esthetics we get great results with controlling most problem skins. Unlike many medical treatments our estheticians have the time to deep clean your pores which allows for quicker improvements even if you are being treated by a physician. We help you make diet and life style changes and we will recommend you to see a physician if we feel it’s important. Sometimes the two modalities work very well together. You don’t go to a weight-loss clinic, lose a few pounds and then go back to eating anything you like. Acne is the same way. It requires constant care and discipline, and it helps when you have a coach to guide you in making the right skincare decisions. At Elizabeth Renee Esthetics we’ll devise a plan that can easily fit into your lifestyle! Call us at 781.237.SKIN (7546) to make an appointment today.
