Body Acne (Back, Chest)

Our Clinic's Differentiated Approach to Body Acne Improvement

Compared to facial skin, the back and chest areas

have thicker stratum corneum, deeper pores, and produce more sebum.

For these reasons, once they occur, they tend to last longer and easily lead to hyperpigmentation.

This makes them an area of concern for many people.

At our clinic, considering the structure and characteristics of body skin,

peeling, soothing, extraction, and recovery processes, a comprehensive approach

we systematically manage body acne according to our “Body Acne Exclusive Management Protocol”.

1. Jessner Peel

A peel that can be considered for body acne management

Jessner Peel is

a mixture of salicylic acid and lactic acid composed of

one of the methods that has been used for body acne management for a long time.

It is easy to apply to areas with thick stratum corneum and deep pores, such as the back or chest,

and can help improve chronic body acne.

It can also be expected to help manage post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) that occurs after acne.

Since the recovery period is relatively short, you can consider the procedure with relative comfort.

At our clinic,

we utilize Jessner Peel as a basic step in body acne management.

2. Body Aladdin Peel

A peel for those with severe keratosis pilaris or who desire more intensive care

If symptoms of keratosis pilaris or pustular acne are prominent,

or if acne frequently recurs on the back,

a more in-depth peeling procedure can be considered.

Body Aladdin Peel is

a peel that offers exfoliation and sebum dissolution different from Jessner Peel and,

it can be selectively performed considering the individual's skin condition.

Areas like the back or shoulders with thick keratin buildup

Cases accompanied by long-lasting hyperpigmentation

Frequently recurring inflammatory acne

This procedure may require a short recovery period and can be considered for those seeking a different type of improvement than Jessner Peel.

3. Post-Treatment Skin Soothing and Care

Combination of Cryo Soothing Care and Jaungo Body Mummy Pack

Body skin irritated after a peeling procedure

needs immediate stabilization to help it recover without discomfort.

At our clinic, after the Jessner Peel procedure, we proceed with the following two steps.

Cryo Soothing Care

Helps to alleviate skin heat and redness, stabilizing its temperature.

Soothe your skin with the Body Jaungo Mummy Pack

Jaungo Hannya extract provides moisture and soothing effects to the skin, helping to protect the skin barrier.

It reduces irritation that may occur after treatment, helping the skin remain comfortable until the next day.

Applying soothing steps delicately differentiated after peeling is

the true 'subtle difference' that Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic believes in.

4. Body acne extraction requires a more meticulous approach

Acne occurring on the back and chest

Improper extraction is likely to leave marks such as scars, indentations, and pigmentation.

These are areas with a high risk of skin damage.

At Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic, we avoid simply extracting.

Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic's Acne Extraction: A Differentiated Approach

If necessary, needling is used to first secure an exit pathway. This is to prevent inflammation from bursting excessively.

Delicate needling technique

Considering the direction of body hair, or the direction of pores, micro-needling is performed.

This can reduce the burden of skin damage.

Extraction is performed while reducing the likelihood of scars.

This can have a positive impact on overall recovery.

In body acne management, extraction is not merely an option,

but a crucial process that requires a skilled approach.
