Some might be wondering, why would teenagers need to worry about skin treatments? Let alone… skin in general? Teenage years are the years of puberty; for some, this might bypass unknowingly but for others, this shows up on the skin as well. For all the teenagers who are suffering from puberty skin, continue reading to find out what you can do to salvage your skin! 🫶🏻
Teenage Skin?
It’s a known fact that puberty begins and lasts anywhere between the ages of 10 to 16. During puberty, it is not just the growth spurts that are going through change; it is also the skin. Precisely during this period, our hormones become increasingly active, which stimulates the oil glands to overproduce, create buildups of dead skin cells and bacteria that clog the pores, and eventually create acne breakouts.
But since we can’t fully control hormones during this period…does that mean my acne will never stop?
Acne also has genetic backgrounds. Therefore, if your parents or a relative in your family had breakouts in the past (and if they still are), then it is most likely that you will also continue to have them. However, while genetics may cause acne to appear, skincare routines and skin treatments can suppress oil glands and inflammation.
Can Teenagers Do Skin Treatments?
There are no absolute rules against teenagers to undergo skin treatments. Although the teenage body is still going through hormonal changes and it is ideal to wait on invasive skin treatments, simple skin treatments are recommended for those who are struggling from acne breakouts.
Healing Care Basic
Teenagers who struggle from teenage acne and hormonal skin will see benefits from facial treatments with variations on soothing care or hydration care.
At LAMINE Skin Clinic, we offer 4 different types of L-skincare treatment combined with Intense Ultra. Depending on the condition of the skin, it is best recommended to switch between the different types of care (hydration/blemish soothing/brightening/skin glow) for maximum benefits.
Your choice of L-skincare is then combined with Intense Ultra, an ultrasound device that helps to moisturize the skin while soothing down sensitive skin.
As teenage skin prone to acne is also highly sensitive with heavy inflammation, looking into soothing and hydration care will help to calm down possible acnes.
For those who have already developed acne, including acne extractions into the program will help take care of pre-existing troubles. We also offer cortisone injections for cystic acne as well!

Will Healing Care Basic stop my acne once and for all?
Sadly, the answer is no. Teenage acne is hard to fully end as the body is going through intense hormonal changes. For some, routine skin treatments such as Healing Care Basic will help to gradually stop excessive sebum secretion but for others, it might not. Therefore, it is important for teenagers to visit the skin clinic immediately after noticing the formation of acne to prevent it from causing heavy breakouts. This will also ensure little to no acne pigmentation is left behind as acne scars.
Checkpoints to remember for teenagers:
- Routine sessions of Healing Care Basic will help to normalize sensitive, hormonal skin
- Include acne extractions and cortisone injections into the facial treatment to calm down pre-existing acne
- Engage in hydrating and soothing skincare routine at home
- Make sure to hydrate the body by drinking lots of water
If you are concerned about the skin condition of your child, do not hesitate and come to the skin clinic for professional consultations on ways to safely calm down the skin. If you are a teenager yourself looking to stop teenage acne, LAMINE Skin Clinic is a safe and professional place to solve your troubles.
