Adult acne behaves differently than teenage acne. Breakouts are deeper, more painful, and often concentrated on the chin and jawline, while the skin itself may be dry. This is why drying products from your teenage years do not work. They simply damage the skin barrier and prolong inflammation.
Common Signs of Adult Acne
- •Deep, painful pimples on the chin, jawline, and neck
- •Breakouts that follow a cycle, often in the second half of the month
- •Red and brown marks that persist for weeks after a breakout
- •Skin that is oily in the T-zone while feeling tight on the cheeks
Common Triggers
- •Hormonal fluctuations and increased sensitivity of oil glands to androgens
- •Chronic stress and lack of sleep, which elevate cortisol levels
- •A damaged skin barrier caused by aggressive acne products
- •Comedogenic cosmetics and makeup that is not removed thoroughly
How We Treat It in Our Salon
Hydra Medic® Acne Treatment
We reduce inflammation and regulate oil production without over-drying, allowing the skin to stop its over-reactive defense response.
- 1
Anamnesis and Diagnostics
We examine your breakout cycle, medication, previous dermatological treatments, and your current home routine. Without this step, we cannot address acne effectively.
- 2
Gentle Cleansing and AHA or BHA
Acids loosen clogs in the pores and remove dead skin cells that fuel inflammation.
- 3
Targeted Extractions
We only extract what is ready. We do not touch deep, inflamed lesions to prevent permanent scarring.
- 4
Anti-Inflammatory Sea Mud Mask
The mask calms inflammation, absorbs excess oil, and simultaneously remineralizes the skin.
- 5
Restoring the Skin Barrier
We layer hydration with marine peptides. A healthy barrier is the best prevention against new breakouts.
- 6
Home Care Protocol and Schedule
You will receive a simple routine and a plan for three to five treatments at monthly intervals to stabilize your skin.
Book a treatment tailored to your skin
Every skin reacts differently. During the diagnosis we pinpoint the exact cause of your problem (adult acne) and compose the treatment for your skin, not from a one-size-fits-all protocol.

What to Expect
- •After the first treatment: reduced inflammation and redness, skin feels calmer
- •After two to three weeks: fewer new breakouts during the high-risk phase of your cycle
- •After a series of 3 to 5 treatments: significantly more stable skin and faster healing
- •Post-acne marks: these fade gradually, and we address residual scarring with mesotherapy
How to Care for Your Skin at Home
- •Never dry out your skin with alcohol, as this worsens acne in the long run
- •Use non-comedogenic hydration every day, even if your skin is oily
- •Do not pop pimples, as the risk of permanent scarring is higher than any benefit
- •Use SPF daily, as post-acne pigment spots become fixed when exposed to the sun
