Active acne first. Then the marks it left.

Good for
- Active breakouts on the face, back or chest
- Red marks that linger after a breakout
- Brown marks on deeper skin tones
- Pitted and rolling acne scars
- Surgical scars, with Dr. Chopra's input
How it works+
Active breakouts get a medical skin care plan and BioRePeel. Red and brown marks respond to Lumecca. Pitted scars respond to SkinPen, Morpheus8 or UltraClear. Sydney sets the order and checks progress every month.
What it feels like+
Depends on the step. Peels tingle, Lumecca snaps, microneedling scratches under numbing.
Afterward+
Depends on the step. The plan avoids downtime that would collide with your week.
Not for you if+
- Isotretinoin in the last six months, for any device or peel
- Pregnancy, for most steps
- Active infection
Sydney goes through this with you before anything starts.
Pairs well with+
A medical skin care plan is the foundation for every step.
Can you treat acne scars while I still break out?+
Active acne comes first. Treating scars over active breakouts spreads the problem. The order matters.
Which scar treatment is right?+
Shallow texture, SkinPen. Deeper rolling scars, Morpheus8. Surface and tone together, UltraClear. Sydney looks and chooses.
How long until scars improve?+
Months. Collagen rebuilds slowly, and most plans run three sessions four weeks apart with results judged at three months.
