ACNE

Let’s Talk About Acne

Acne is one of the most common skin concerns — and it’s not just a teenage issue. It can affect anyone at any age, and it shows up in different forms like blackheads, whiteheads, papules, pustules, cysts, or nodules.

What causes acne?

  • Overproduction of oil (sebum)

  • Clogged pores from dead skin cells

  • Bacteria (especially C. acnes)

  • Hormonal imbalances

  • Diet, stress, or improper skincare products

At Avona Aesthetics we take a personalized approach to acne. Whether you're experiencing breakouts for the first time or dealing with persistent adult acne, we offer customized treatments that include deep cleansing, extractions, chemical peels, high-frequency, and product guidance to help get your skin back in balance.

Consistency is key — acne doesn't clear overnight, but with the right support, progress will happen.

ABOUT ACNE & TREATMENTS

  • Teen acne is totally normal — and treatable.
    As hormones start to shift during puberty, oil production increases, which can lead to clogged pores, breakouts, and inflammation. But that doesn’t mean you have to live with it.

    BEST TREATMENTS:

    • TEEN CLEAN FACIAL

    • FULL ACNE PROGRAM

    • ZENA CHEMICAL PEEL

  • Still breaking out in your 20s, 30s, or even 40s? You’re not alone.
    Adult acne is often hormonal and can be triggered by stress, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or even skincare and makeup.

    We specialize in helping adults navigate this frustrating skin concern. Our treatments focus on calming inflammation, clearing congestion, and restoring balance without drying out or damaging your skin barrier.

    BEST TREATMENTS:

    • ACNE FACIAL

    • FULL ACNE PROGRAM

    • ZENA CHEMICAL PEEL

  • Hormonal and cystic acne can be painful — physically and emotionally.
    These deeper breakouts are often related to hormone fluctuations and require more than just surface-level treatments.

    Our approach combines advanced acne treatments with lifestyle guidance and personalized skincare routines. Whether you’re dealing with jawline cysts, inflamed breakouts, or stubborn congestion, we’re here to help you manage and heal your skin over time.
