Teen Acne Treatment
At Teen Med Spa, we understand the emotions that teens feel when their skin is not clear. While acne is commonly thought of as a problem that only teenagers will have to suffer through what is not know is that regardless of skin type or lifestyle, approximately 80% of the population will suffer from acne at some point in their lives.
To date, acne has been disappointingly resistant to various treatment methods. While most individuals will eventually outgrow their acne, some will remain susceptible to it throughout their lives. Even for those who no longer generate new symptoms, permanent scarring frequently results.
At Teen Med Spa offers a number of procedures that are effective in clearing acne. We invite you to ask the experts or schedule a consultation. Ask about the summer light therapy special to clear acne.

My Dear families:
I do have a limited supply of the swine flu vaccine, it is recommended by the CDC for high risk groups especially the pregnant moms, families with a baby at home less than 6 month and young ones. Please call us and let us know if you want the vaccine after reading the recommendations by the CDC below.
Thanks and see you soon.

2009 H1N1 Recommendations
Who will be recommended to receive the 2009 H1N1 vaccine?
CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) has recommended that certain groups of the population receive the 2009 H1N1 vaccine when it first becomes available. These target groups include pregnant women, people who live with or care for children younger than 6 months of age, healthcare and emergency medical services personnel, persons between the ages of 6 months and 24 years old, and people ages of 25 through 64 years of age who are at higher risk for 2009 H1N1 because of chronic health disorders or compromised immune systems.
Vaccine to protect against the 2009 H1N1 flu virus is available; however, initial supplies are limited. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) has recommended that the following groups receive the vaccine before others: pregnant women, people who live with or care for children younger than 6 months of age, health care and emergency medical services personnel with direct patient contact, children 6 months through 4 years of age, and children, especially those younger than 5 years of age and those who have high risk medical conditions are at increased risk of influenza-related complications. For a more detailed description of children at highest risk, read Children with Developmental Disabilities and Chronic Medical Conditions
Are the 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccines safe?
The 2009 H1N1 vaccines have undergone all the safety testing and quality checks that are usually done for other vaccines. We expect the 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccine to have a similar safety profile as seasonal flu vaccines, which have a very good safety track record. Over the years, hundreds of millions of Americans have received seasonal flu vaccines. The most common side effects following flu vaccinations are mild, such as soreness, redness, tenderness or swelling where the shot was given.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will be closely monitoring for any signs that the 2009 H1N1 vaccine is causing unexpected adverse events, and we will work with state and local health officials to investigate any unusual events.
