Acne Problems & Real Solutions in Montreal

Struggling with breakouts isn’t “just a phase.” Acne can be persistent, painful, and leave marks that affect confidence. At Ideal Body Clinic, we combine medical expertise with advanced technology to clear active acne, calm inflammation, and fade scars—safely for all skin tones.

Why acne happens

Acne forms when oil (sebum), dead skin, and bacteria clog pores. Triggers include:

• Hormones (teens, postpartum, IUDs, PCOS, perimenopause)
• Stress and sleep disruption
• Comedogenic cosmetics or hair products
• Friction (helmets, masks), sweating
• Genetics and, for some, high-glycemic diets

Types of acne

• Comedonal: blackheads & whiteheads
• Inflammatory: papules & pustules
• Nodulocystic: deep, painful cysts
• Post-acne marks: red (PIE) or brown (PIH) spots, plus textural scars

Our in-clinic solutions

1) AviClear® (laser for acne oil glands)

AviClear selectively targets sebaceous glands to reduce oil at the source—ideal for moderate to severe acne or when you want a medication-free approach. Typical series: 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Great for the face, jawline, and back.

2) Laser & light to quiet inflammation and fade marks

• Laser Genesis: calms redness, shrinks the look of pores, smooths texture—minimal downtime.
• Enlighten (PICO): breaks up stubborn brown post-acne spots (PIH) and improves overall tone.
• Fotona Skin Tightening/Regeneration: collagen stimulation to refine texture and early scars.

3) Microneedling RF & Fractional CO₂ (for scars)

• Microneedling RF (Darwin/Scarlet): tightens pores, softens rolling/boxcar scars with short downtime.
• Secret Pro (RF + CO₂) or fractional CO₂: deeper remodeling for moderate to severe acne scarring.

4) Medical-grade peels & JetPeel®

• Salicylic/Glycolic or BioRePeel: decongest pores, speed cell turnover, lessen PIH.
• JetPeel deep cleanse + infusion: unclogs without squeezing; hydrates while calming active breakouts. Ready for clear skin?
