However, medical management can achieve long term clearance and significantly reduce the frequency and severity of breakouts. Some patients, particularly those treated with Isotretinoin, experience permanent clearance. The key is ongoing management and maintaining a good skincare routine even after active acne has cleared.<\/p>\r\n                        <\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <div class=\"faq-item\">\r\n                        <button class=\"faq-q\">\r\n                            <span>Can medical management prevent acne scarring?<\/span>\r\n                            <div class=\"faq-icon\">\r\n                                <svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><line x1=\"12\" y1=\"5\" x2=\"12\" y2=\"19\"\/><line x1=\"5\" y1=\"12\" x2=\"19\" y2=\"12\"\/><\/svg>\r\n                            <\/div>\r\n                        <\/button>\r\n                        <div class=\"faq-a\">\r\n                            <p>Yes. One of the most important reasons to seek medical treatment for acne early is to prevent permanent scarring. Active acne that is left untreated or undertreated is far more likely to cause scarring. By controlling breakouts effectively with medical management, the risk of scarring is significantly reduced. If scarring has already occurred, we offer separate treatments specifically designed to improve the appearance of acne scars.<\/p>\r\n                        <\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n\r\n                <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n\r\n        <\/main>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n    <!-- CONSULT STRIP -->\r\n    <div class=\"consult-strip\">\r\n        <div class=\"consult-inner\">\r\n            <div class=\"consult-text\">\r\n                <h3>Treat acne at the root cause.<\/h3>\r\n                <p>Structured medical treatment plans that deliver results over-the-counter products cannot achieve.<\/p>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/aeonclinic.com\/book-a-consultation\/\" class=\"consult-btn\">Book a Consultation &rarr;<\/a>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n    <script>\r\n        (function() {\r\n            \/\/ Find the container for this specific block to avoid conflicts if multiple sections are on the same page\r\n            var scripts = document.getElementsByTagName('script');\r\n            var currentScript = scripts[scripts.length - 1];\r\n            var container = currentScript ? currentScript.closest('.aeon-custom-section') : null;\r\n            if (!container) container = document.querySelector('.aeon-custom-section');\r\n            if (!container) return;\r\n\r\n            \/* \u2500\u2500 Scroll reveal fallback \u2500\u2500 *\/\r\n            var revealObs = new IntersectionObserver(function(entries) {\r\n                entries.forEach(function(e) { if (e.isIntersecting) e.target.classList.add('visible'); });\r\n            }, { threshold: 0.06 });\r\n            container.querySelectorAll('.reveal').forEach(function(el) { revealObs.observe(el); });\r\n\r\n            \/* \u2500\u2500 Sidebar active state (Bulletproof for WordPress) \u2500\u2500 *\/\r\n            var sidebarLinks = container.querySelectorAll('.sidebar-link[data-target]');\r\n            function updateSidebar() {\r\n                var current = null;\r\n                var threshold = window.innerHeight * 0.4; \/* Trigger when section reaches top 40% of screen *\/\r\n                \r\n                sidebarLinks.forEach(function(link) {\r\n                    var targetId = link.getAttribute('data-target');\r\n                    var el = container.querySelector('#' + targetId);\r\n                    if (el && el.getBoundingClientRect().top <= threshold) {\r\n                        current = link;\r\n                    }\r\n                });\r\n                \r\n                \/* Default to the first item if at the very top *\/\r\n                if (!current && sidebarLinks.length > 0) {\r\n                    current = sidebarLinks[0];\r\n                }\r\n                \r\n                sidebarLinks.forEach(function(l) { l.classList.remove('aeon-active'); });\r\n                if (current) {\r\n                    current.classList.add('aeon-active');\r\n                }\r\n            }\r\n            \r\n            \/* Listen to scroll events on all nested containers *\/\r\n            window.addEventListener('scroll', updateSidebar, true);\r\n            \/* Fallback: constantly check position in case scroll events are blocked by the theme *\/\r\n            setInterval(updateSidebar, 200);\r\n            updateSidebar();\r\n\r\n            \/* \u2500\u2500 FAQ accordion \u2500\u2500 *\/\r\n            container.querySelectorAll('.faq-q').forEach(function(btn) {\r\n                btn.addEventListener('click', function() {\r\n                    var item = btn.closest('.faq-item');\r\n                    var isOpen = item.classList.contains('open');\r\n                    container.querySelectorAll('.faq-item').forEach(function(i) { i.classList.remove('open'); });\r\n                    if (!isOpen) {\r\n                        item.classList.add('open');\r\n                    }\r\n                });\r\n            });\r\n        })();\r\n    <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n    <div class=\"xs_social_share_widget xs_share_url after_content \t\tmain_content  wslu-style-1 wslu-share-box-shaped wslu-fill-colored wslu-none wslu-share-horizontal wslu-theme-font-no wslu-main_content\">\n\n\t\t\n        <ul>\n\t\t\t        <\/ul>\n    <\/div> \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Services \/ Skin \/ Medical Management for Acne Clinical Approach Medical Managementfor Acne.
