What is the main cause of acne?
Before we elaborate on acne removal procedures, you first need to understand what is acne and what causes it. Acne is an inflammatory skin disorder caused by the blockage of skin pores. Due to excess sebum production and pollution infiltration, dust and dirt stick easily on the skin's surface. This entices bacteria to release toxins into the pores causing inflammation. The result is reddish painful swellings on your face that you call acne. So, the main cause of acne can be traced back to excess sebum production. But, why do some people have excess sebum production? Excess sebum production and blockage of skin pores can be blamed on unhealthy habits like, not washing the face properly, picking on the skin, environmental pollution, etc., but this is a secondary cause. The most common reason for acne is hormonal imbalance, lifestyle disorders, disturbed sleep, stress, dietary irregularities, etc.
Is there surgery to remove acne?
Yes, you can surgically remove acne. Acne treatment surgery, also known as Pimple removal surgery is a common procedure. Most cosmetologists and dermatologists will opt for this surgery when your acne does not respond to medication. Or, they reappear as soon as the medication stops.
Can acne be removed permanently?
With the best acne treatment surgery clinic in Salt Lake, yes, acne can be removed permanently. There are many techniques for treating acne. The common ones used in daily practice include the following:
- Laser skin resurfacing – This is a cosmetic procedure that involves using high-energy light beams to treat acne. The light beams are used to destroy underlying microorganisms and stimulate collagen production. The acne-causing microbes are thus removed. Collagen stimulation helps in new skin layer formation and promotes healing of the surface layer of the skin. It is a highly effective procedure. Results are guaranteed. The process is safe. This process not just helps in treating active acne, but also reduces acne scars and pigmentation.
- Chemical peel – The basic procedure involves applying a chemical solution to your face and leaving it on for some time. This chemical peels off the layer of the skin, thereby triggering the formation of a healthy and radiant new skin layer. Superficial and medium-level chemical peels are a popular choice among plastic surgeons for acne treatment surgery. The chemicals used for this purpose are mainly salicylic acid, glycolic acid, resorcinol, or trichloroacetic acid.
- Dermabrasion – It involves grounding or sanding the affected skin layer by a rapidly rotating device. This boosts new surface layer regeneration.
- Microdermabrasion – Microdermabrasion is very much like exfoliation. Tiny diamond-like particles pass through a vacuum tube placed on the skin. These particles scrape off the damaged skin layer which is then removed by a suction process through the vacuum. It is a non-invasive procedure that yields significant improvement. Additional benefits: zero downtime and minimal risks.

How long does it take to heal from acne surgery?

For most surgeries, your skin will be swelled up after the procedure for up to 48 hours. You may feel slight itching and burning for up to 72 hours. After that, you can expect your skin to assume a normal appearance. There may be flaking for up to 7 days. The flakes indicate the removal of dead and inflamed tissue. New skin layer generation will continue in the meantime. You will see bright, smooth, and glowing skin within 10-20 days of the procedure.
