During a chemical peel, a specialized acid is meticulously applied to the skin, adjusting its pH level. This process gently loosens the connections between dead skin cells, triggering exfoliation and stimulating the growth of new, healthy cells. For acne-prone skin, chemical peels can be particularly beneficial. By removing the buildup of dead skin cells and excess oil, chemical peels help to unclog pores, reduce inflammation, and prevent future breakouts. Additionally, certain acids used in chemical peels, such as salicylic acid, have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, making them effective in treating acne.
Beginning with a thorough water-assisted deep cleanse, followed by gentle hydro dermabrasion and a relaxing massage, each step is tailored to pamper your skin and address your specific concerns. The result? Glowing, exfoliated, and revitalized skin that radiates health and beauty. Our customizable approach allows for the incorporation of additional relaxation elements and targeted skin services, ensuring your unique needs are met.

At Olive Tree Aesthetics, we understand that acne can be a distressing skin condition that affects individuals differently. Acne is not a one-size-fits-all problem; it comes in various forms, each with its unique characteristics and treatment requirements. Our team of skincare experts is dedicated to providing personalized care tailored to your specific type of acne to help you achieve clear, healthy skin.
Whiteheads, also known as closed comedones, are small, flesh-colored bumps that form when pores are clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. Because the pore remains closed, the material inside does not oxidize and remains white. Whiteheads can be treated with topical treatments that help to exfoliate the skin and keep pores clear.
Blackheads, or open comedones, occur when a pore is clogged but remains open at the surface. The trapped oil and dead skin cells oxidize, turning black. Blackheads are commonly found on the nose, forehead, and chin. Regular exfoliation and treatments that help regulate oil production can effectively manage blackheads.
Papules are small, red, inflamed bumps caused by clogged pores that have become infected with bacteria. They do not contain pus and can be tender to the touch. Papules indicate moderate acne and often require treatments that reduce inflammation and bacterial infection.
Pustules are similar to papules but contain pus, appearing as red bumps with a white or yellow center. They can be painful and are a sign of infection and inflammation. Effective treatment includes topical or oral antibiotics to reduce bacteria and inflammation.
Nodules are large, hard, painful lumps beneath the surface of the skin caused by severe inflammation. They can persist for weeks or even months and often require more intensive treatments. Nodules are typically treated with prescription medications, including oral antibiotics or isotretinoin, and sometimes cortisone injections.
Cysts are the most severe form of acne, characterized by large, pus-filled lesions that are deep under the skin. They are often painful and can lead to scarring if not treated properly. Cystic acne usually requires medical intervention with prescription medications and, in some cases, surgical drainage.
Hormonal acne, commonly seen in teenagers and women, is triggered by hormonal fluctuations. It often appears on the lower face, such as the jawline and chin. Hormonal acne can be managed with treatments that balance hormone levels, including oral contraceptives or anti-androgen medications.
Acne Rosacea is a type of acne that occurs in individuals with rosacea, a chronic skin condition. It is characterized by redness, swelling, and acne-like breakouts on the face. Treating acne rosacea involves addressing both the acne and the underlying rosacea with specialized skincare products and sometimes medications.

The time it takes to see results varies depending on the treatment and the severity of the scars. Most patients notice improvements after a few sessions, with optimal results typically seen after several months of consistent treatment.
While it may not be possible to completely remove all acne scars, various treatments can significantly reduce their appearance and improve skin texture. The goal is to achieve smoother, more even skin.
Acne scarring occurs when severe acne damages the skin, leading to abnormal collagen production during the healing process. This can result in various types of scars, such as ice pick, boxcar, rolling, hypertrophic, and keloid scars.
Nodules are large, hard, painful lumps beneath the skin's surface caused by severe inflammation. Cysts are deeper, pus-filled lesions that are also painful and can lead to scarring.
The main types of acne include whiteheads, blackheads, papules, pustules, nodules, cysts, hormonal acne, and acne rosacea. Each type has different characteristics and treatment needs.
