Acne and breakout facial treatment in Netanya

What actually happens during the treatment

Every treatment opens with an assessment of the skin on that day. Acne-prone skin changes from week to week, with the hormonal cycle, the season, stress, medication and skincare habits, so the treatment given at the previous visit is not necessarily right for this one.

Then comes deep, controlled cleansing. Working incorrectly on an inflamed area can increase irritation and leave marks, so I work slowly and only where the skin is ready to be cleared that day. What is not yet ready, I do not touch.

After that, professional-strength active ingredients are applied to calm inflammation and regulate oil production, followed by a soothing and protective layer. The treatment should not leave the skin burning or peeling. Acne-prone skin is already inflamed, and an overly aggressive treatment makes it worse rather than calmer.

• Assessing the skin and adapting the treatment to that day
• Controlled deep cleansing designed to avoid unnecessary irritation
• Calming inflammation and redness
• Helping manage excess oil
• Restoring the skin's protective barrier
• Building a home routine that supports the result

Adult acne and hormonal acne

One of the most common misconceptions is that acne ends with adolescence. In practice, a large share of the women who come to me are in their thirties and forties and are dealing with breakouts for the first time, or again after years.

Adult acne behaves differently: it tends to concentrate along the jawline, the chin and the neck, it often follows the monthly cycle, and the surrounding skin is no longer oily and resilient as it was at 17 but usually drier and more sensitive. A treatment suited to a 16-year-old can simply dry out and irritate skin like that.

Conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) also directly affect the appearance of the skin. I do not diagnose or treat the hormonal condition itself, which is the job of your doctor, but I adapt the cosmetic treatment to that reality and tell you honestly when I think it is worth getting checked in parallel.

How many treatments are needed and what to expect

The honest answer is that it depends on the starting point and on how the skin responds. Some clients need only occasional support, while more widespread inflammatory acne may call for a longer plan alongside medical follow-up when appropriate.

I can commit to an orderly process, to follow-up and to adapting the treatment to how the skin responds. I cannot promise completely clear skin within a set time. If after several sessions there is not enough progress, I will tell you and, where needed, recommend consulting a dermatologist.

Acne treatment in Netanya, where it takes place

The clinic is at 25 Yehuda Halevi Street in Netanya, where I have worked since 1991. Every treatment is personal and by appointment, in a quiet and discreet setting, which matters especially when the look of the skin causes discomfort.

Besides residents of Netanya, women also come to me from Herzliya, Kfar Saba, Ra'anana, Hod HaSharon and Hadera, mostly for acne treatments that require continuity and support over time. If you are wondering whether the distance is worthwhile, you can call first. I will gladly tell you honestly whether what you are looking for suits treatment with me.

To book an appointment or for a short consultation beforehand, send a WhatsApp message and I will get back to you.
