Acne Treatments Mission Viejo, CA
Acne doesn’t just show up, it lingers, flares, and affects how you feel day-to-day. For many patients, breakouts are about more than just the surface; they can stem from hormonal imbalances, stress, and other shifts beneath the skin. At soul&beautyMEDx, we take acne personally because we know how deeply it touches confidence and daily life.
Our Mission Viejo team offers personalized acne treatments that heal, strengthen, and restore balance to your skin. Led by experienced medical professionals, we pair advanced technology with compassionate care to help you achieve healthy, beautiful skin and maintain it for the long term.
Acne is one of the most common skin conditions, affecting people of all ages, from teenagers to adults. It develops when pores or hair follicles become blocked with oil and dead skin cells, allowing bacteria to multiply beneath the surface. The result: inflamed pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and sometimes painful cysts on the face, neck, shoulders, or chest.
Acne can also appear during pregnancy, after medication changes, or from lifestyle and hormonal imbalances. Left untreated, it may cause lingering redness, discoloration, or acne scars. For long-term skin health, early treatment is key.
At our Mission Viejo practice, we look beyond the breakouts to understand what’s driving them, your environment, stress, hormones, and overall skin type, so we can treat acne safely and effectively.
At soul&beautyMEDx, acne treatment is never one-size-fits-all. Our expert dermatologists and medical professionals take time to understand the cause and severity of your acne before recommending care.
Treatment may involve medical-grade topicals like benzoyl peroxide, retinoids, or salicylic acid, as well as chemical peels, laser therapies, or facials designed to clear and calm inflamed skin. For persistent or adult acne, we may combine oral prescriptions with in-office treatments for best results.
Our goal is to help you achieve balanced, clear, and healthy skin, without unnecessary downtime or discomfort.
Our BBL laser therapy targets acne-causing bacteria beneath the skin’s surface while reducing redness and inflammation. The gentle light energy helps regulate oil production, clear active breakouts, and even improve acne scars and discoloration.
Many patients notice calmer, smoother skin after just one or two treatments, making it an excellent option for both teen and adult acne.
Our medical-grade facials combine deep cleansing, exfoliation, and gentle extraction to purify pores and reduce congestion. Custom blends of vitamins, soothing serums, and cooling masks calm inflamed areas and restore moisture balance.
They’re ideal for maintaining skin health between more advanced treatments, and an easy way to reset stressed skin.
Microneedling boosts collagen to heal scarring and restore smooth texture. For acne-prone or post-acne skin, it encourages new, healthy cell formation and reduces visible irregularities.
When combined with PRP or vitamin-enriched boosters, results become even more refined and luminous.
Chemical peels gently remove the upper layers of dead skin and oil buildup that block pores. Using safe, medical-grade solutions, they help treat active acne, reduce redness, and fade discoloration left behind by past breakouts.
Peels also stimulate new cell growth, revealing smoother, brighter skin. They’re a key part of our acne care plans for Mission Viejo patients who want to achieve lasting clarity and an even tone.
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) use your own natural growth factors to calm inflammation and speed healing. These regenerative therapies encourage collagen production and tissue repair, improving acne scars and overall skin health over time.
Your daily skincare routine is just as important as what happens in the office. We curate medical-grade products tailored to your skin type, from gentle cleansers to active serums with benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or retinoids.
These ingredients help reduce oil, clear pores, and maintain healthy skin between visits. We’ll also discuss vitamin-rich products that support your skin barrier and keep inflammation at bay.
