Breast Acne Treatment in Korea: Your Comprehensive Guide

Breast acne, or acne on the décolletage, is a common and often frustrating condition. In Korea, dermatologists offer a range of specialized treatments that go beyond basic skincare to effectively manage and prevent breakouts, addressing the unique factors that contribute to acne in this sensitive area.


What is Breast Acne?

Breast acne is caused by the same factors as facial acne—excess sebum, clogged pores, and bacteria—but is often made worse by friction from bras and clothing, heat, and sweat. This can lead to persistent breakouts, which, if left untreated, can result in lasting dark marks or scarring on this delicate skin.


Popular Treatments for Breast Acne in Korea

  • Chemical Peels: Customized peels exfoliate and clear pores to prevent future breakouts.
  • Acne Lasers & Light Therapy: Devices like PDT and IPL target acne bacteria and reduce inflammation.
  • Professional Extractions: Safe, hygienic extractions of blackheads and whiteheads to clear pores.
  • Oral & Topical Medication: Prescriptions for severe cases to be used with in-clinic procedures.
