Body acne is a common skin condition that affects areas such as the back, chest, shoulders, and sometimes the upper arms. It occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria, leading to inflammation, pimples, and breakouts.

Unlike facial acne, body acne often develops in areas with thicker skin and larger pores, making it more difficult to treat with basic skincare alone.



At Gangnam OneCell Skin Clinic in Seoul, we provide advanced body acne treatments that target the underlying causes of breakouts while improving overall skin clarity and texture.

1. Medical Acne Treatment for Active Breakouts

Professional medical acne treatments help reduce inflammation, control bacteria, and regulate excess oil production that contributes to body acne.

• Shoulder acne
• Upper arm breakouts

Benefits
• Reduces active acne lesions
• Controls excess sebum production
• Helps prevent future breakouts
• Improves overall skin clarity

2. Chemical Peels for Pore Purification

Chemical peeling treatments use specialized exfoliating solutions to remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and reduce acne-causing bacteria.

These treatments help accelerate skin renewal and improve the appearance of acne-prone skin.

• Clears clogged pores
• Reduces blackheads and breakouts

3. Laser Therapy for Acne Reduction

Advanced acne laser treatments target acne-causing bacteria and help reduce inflammation in affected areas.

Laser treatments can also regulate oil gland activity, which helps reduce recurring body acne.

LDM micro-ultrasound therapy helps accelerate skin healing, reduce inflammation, and improve skin recovery after acne treatments.

5. Acne Scar Prevention and Skin Recovery

If body acne is left untreated, it can lead to acne scars, post-inflammatory pigmentation, and uneven skin texture.

Early treatment helps reduce the risk of long-term skin damage.
