Ideally, yes. Our clinically proven Face Reality Clear Skin Method® shows the best results come from a combination of professional treatments, personalized home care, and lifestyle guidance. In-clinic treatments help clear active acne and address concerns that can follow breakouts, while consistent at-home care maintains your progress between visits. Best results are achieved by adhering to the regimen recommended by your Certified Acne Expert®.

Intake forms are emailed after booking and should be completed and returned at least 24 hours ahead, along with clear photos of your skin. This lets your consultation move quickly so more of your visit goes to treatment. Please arrive without makeup if you can.

Consult with your prescriber to get their approval, before Bootcamp treatments can begin. Differin, Retin-A, tretinoin, Clindamycin, Epiduo and similar prescription retinoids or topical antibiotics need two weeks off before your first appointment. Accutane and its equivalents need at least one month or as recommended by your prescriber.

Some treatments are safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, however we recommend speaking with your healthcare provider before booking.

Acne doesn't clear up overnight - it’s a process that usually takes between 3-6 months. However when the Face Reality Clear Skin Method® is followed as recommended, clients can expect to see a visible improvement in acne severity by 8 weeks*.
