AUREA BGC — Targeted Breakout Management
Pimple Treatment
Fast, effective pimple and breakout treatment with medical extraction, cortisone injections, and prevention protocols in BGC.
Treatment Overview
Pimple treatment at AUREA BGC is immediate relief combined with long-term prevention. Whether you have a single painful cyst before an important event or chronic breakouts, our dermatologists provide medical-grade solutions that work quickly and safely.
For urgent cases, we offer cortisone injections that flatten inflammatory pimples within 24-48 hours - ideal before weddings, presentations, or important events in BGC and Makati. For ongoing management, we provide medical extraction, topical protocols, and prevention strategies.
Unlike squeezing at home (which causes scarring and infection), AUREA medical extraction uses sterile instruments, proper technique, and post-extraction care that promotes healing without marks.

The Experience
What to Expect
Urgent Assessment: For same-day appointments, your dermatologist evaluates the pimple type - inflammatory, cystic, or comedonal. This determines the immediate treatment approach.
Cortisone Injection: For large, painful cysts, a tiny amount of corticosteroid is injected into the lesion. The pimple flattens dramatically within 24-48 hours. This is the go-to treatment for event emergencies.
Medical Extraction: For whiteheads and blackheads, sterile instruments are used to gently release contents without damaging surrounding tissue. This prevents the trauma of home squeezing.
LED Therapy: Blue and red LED light reduces bacteria and inflammation post-extraction, speeding healing and preventing marks.
Prevention: Your dermatologist provides a home protocol to prevent future breakouts and addresses underlying causes - whether hormonal, dietary, or skincare-related.

Medical Safety Standards
Safety Without Compromise
Pimple treatment at AUREA BGC prioritizes safety over speed. Cortisone injections use minimal volume and conservative concentrations to prevent skin atrophy. Medical extraction uses sterile instruments and proper release technique — never the traumatic squeezing that causes scarring and dark marks in Filipino skin.
Sterile Extraction Instruments
Every extraction tool is sterile and single-patient. Proper technique prevents tissue trauma and infection.
Cortisone Concentration Control
Minimal volume and conservative dilution prevent the rare risk of skin thinning at injection sites.
Infection Prevention
Post-extraction LED therapy and medical-grade antiseptic reduce infection risk and speed healing.
Board-Certified Only
Cortisone injections and complex extractions are performed exclusively by Philippine Board of Dermatology-certified physicians.

Questions & Answers
Frequently Asked
Can you remove a pimple in one day?
Cortisone injections can flatten large inflammatory pimples within 24-48 hours. This is our most requested urgent treatment for clients in BGC with important events. However, not all pimple types respond to injection - your dermatologist will advise the best approach.
Is it safe to pop pimples at home?
No. Home extraction often pushes bacteria deeper, causes scarring, and creates post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation - particularly problematic for Filipino skin. AUREA BGC medical extraction uses sterile tools and proper technique for safe clearance.
Will cortisone injections leave a mark?
When performed correctly by a dermatologist, cortisone injections rarely leave marks. At AUREA BGC, we use minimal volume and dilute concentrations to avoid the rare risk of skin thinning (atrophy) at the injection site.
Why do I keep getting pimples in the same spot?
Recurrent pimples in the same area often indicate a persistent blocked pore, bacterial colonization, or mechanical irritation (phone touching face, pillowcase, hair products). AUREA BGC identifies the specific trigger and provides targeted prevention.
Can makeup cover a pimple after treatment?
After cortisone injection, makeup can be applied after 4 hours. After extraction, we recommend waiting 24 hours to allow the skin to close. AUREA provides post-treatment makeup guidance specific to your procedure.
