Acne Treatments: How San Diegans Clear Their Complexion and Get Pampered at Once

Whether you’re in the throes of puberty or facing breakouts as an adult, finding the best acne treatment is key.

Acne facials are one of the most meaningful changes you can make to your skincare routine, and one of the best ways to eliminate breakouts, clear your complexion, and rejuvenate the skin — for good.

Here at Simply Skin Esthetics, I recommend the Face Reality skin care line and the only Dermasound Acne Facial in San Diego.

San Diego’s Leading Acne Facial from a Certified Face Reality Acne Treatment Specialist

The search for the perfect acne-clearing products can be tricky and, at times, frustrating. There are a plethora of topical acne creams, serums, cleansers, and treatments (both over the counter and prescribed) and yet, all too often they leave the skin feeling dried out, irritated, or sometimes even more oily. If you deal with frequent or recurring facial breakouts, this cycle is probably all too familiar to you.

To maximize effectiveness, you'll need to be consistent with your acne treatment and skincare routine — both through regular acne facials and at home. These homecare acne products should be tailored exactly to your skin’s ongoing needs and sensitivities by your esthetician.

Fortunately, you’ve come to the right place. I will provide you with a no nonsense, seriously effective Face Reality skin care system that will clear your skin for good. With customized bi-weekly treatments, homecare products tailored exactly to your skin’s ongoing needs and sensitivities, partnering together we can achieve clear skin.

Lasting Results with The Face Reality Skin Care Program

Face Reality products are the most powerful treatment available to get your acne under control and give you healthy, glowing skin that lasts… which is why I became a certified Face Reality Acne Specialist. For more than 15 years, Face Reality skin care has helped people who suffer from acne with an adaptive, individual approach, and an effective combination of safe, premium formulations that result in significant benefits — even beyond acne relief.

Face Reality’s skin care regimen works to strengthen and repair the skin barrier, preventing environmental and inflammatory imbalances like acne, rosacea, eczema, dermatitis, and premature aging.

Premium Skincare Products

Face Reality skin care is a comprehensive acne protocol which offers a suite of acne products, meticulously crafted with only the highest-quality skin nourishing ingredients (and none of the sneaky acne-causing ingredients found in other skincare product lines).

A Face Reality Acne Specialist

Some skin types will require different variations on their skincare routine to effectively target acne breakouts. That’s why it’s crucial to work directly with a Face Reality professional that will customize an acne facial and skincare regimen for your unique needs.

As a certified Face Reality Acne Specialist here in San Diego, I provide custom treatment options for every age, gender, acne type and skin type. I even go one step further taking diet and lifestyle factors into careful consideration. In about 3 months, you will see a drastic improvement in your overall complexion.

A 90% Success Rate in About 3 Months

​Face Reality products produce over a 90% success rate in 3 months for clients who incorporate it into a holistic skincare regimen, and it was chosen as favorite acne line in the 2020 ASCP Reader’s Choice Awards.

The Only Acne Facial in San Diego that Uses Dermasound Technology

To support the Face Reality skin care protocol, I use the Ultrasonic Dermasound Facial — a cutting-edge skincare system that uses gentle sound waves to loosen dead skin, cleanse pores, stimulate collagen production, and enhance the penetration of Face Reality skin care products. In as little as 6-10 treatments, it can clear your complexion and restore skin to a smooth, youthful glow.

Simply Skin offers the only Dermasound Acne Facial in the San Diego area.

STEP 1: PEELING

​A gentle microjet vibration of water is used to peel away dead skin cells and deeply cleanse clogged pores. Ultrasonic vibrations spin the water molecules at high frequency causing “cavitation” — a brief phase change in the water molecule. This loosens and removes dead cells, dirt, and oils as it hits the skin’s surface.

This phase removes 20% to 50% of the “stratum corneum” — the outer layer of the skin which we continuously shed. Especially for those who live in San Diego, these cells are often damaged and dull the appearance of your skin.

This first step is similar to exfoliation and microdermabrasion, but has a lower risk of irritation and inflammation that is sometimes associated with mechanical methods.

STEP 2: INFUSION

​Normally, skincare products can’t effectively penetrate the skin if they have large molecules like amino acids, peptides, and certain vitamins. But ultrasound makes that penetration possible with a process called "sonophoresis."

The ultrasound frequency opens minute pathways to allow the product to penetrate deeply into your skin — allowing active treatment products to penetrate 10,000x deeper than manual application for nourishment at a cellular level.

We use this step to infuse high concentrations of hydration, antioxidants, brighteners, and growth factors into the skin, which makes it one of the most effective skin treatments available in San Diego.

STEP 3: MICROCURRENT THERAPY

When a cell has been damaged due to environmental causes (like aging, or overexposure to the San Diego sun), the cell’s electrical current is adversely affected — restricting the flow of nutrients into the cell and waste products out of the cell. This condition makes it difficult for cells to heal.

So, the third step of a Dermasound Facial normalizes the skin with a very mild electrical current — a medically proven technique to restore individual cells’ natural electrical charge. This stimulates collagen and elastin production and increases nutrient transfer to the skin.

STEP 4: ATP

​Adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, is the energy source that supports all living things. As we age, our bodies gradually lose ATP which causes the signs of aging. In this final step of the process, ultrasound & microcurrent therapy are used to repair ATP — diminishing fine lines & wrinkles, improving elasticity, and creating glowing, healthier-looking skin.
This is the ultimate no downtime acne facial treatment. In San Diego, there’s only one place to get the exclusive DermaSound acne facial — and it’s here at Simply Skin.
