Per theAmerican Academy of Dermatology, up to 50 million Americans a year tackle the issue.
Acne is known to cause mental health issues such as anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression.
For example, topical retinoids can trigger the skin to become inflamed and itchy.

Accutane, on the other hand, can bring about congenital disabilities and damage your liver.
Enter the Aviclear laser treatment, a game-changer in eliminating acne.
Aviclear claims to eradicate mild, moderate, and severe facial acne.
This includes cystic, inflammatory, and hormonal.
However, the Aviclear laser treatment is costly and can set you back thousands of dollars.
Nevertheless, experts like dermatologist Corey L. Hartman have nothing but praise for the Aviclear laser treatment.
When used on the skin, the laser focuses on the sebaceous glands.
Simply put, the Aviclear laser treatment blocks the formation of pimples and blemishes to prevent further breakouts.
If breakouts occur, they will be more manageable and infrequent.
Patients who choose the Aviclear laser treatment must undergo three 30-minute treatments every three to four weeks.
Thus, the entire process will last, at most, three months.
An example of results of the treatment can be seen above, as posed byAviclear’s Instagram.
David J. Goldberg, M.D., explained who the ideal candidate is toInStyle.
Goldberg said that any skin tone, light or dark, can undergo the Aviclear laser treatment.
While some lasers can cause hyperpigmentation on darker skin tones, the Aviclear laser treatment does not.
In her Allure review, Jessica Ourisman said she sought the treatment toreduce the appearance of cystic acne.
After her first treatment, she had a bad breakout that her dermatologist later explained was normal.
