Kenalog injections are not designed to work as a preventive remedy for acne breakouts. These injections are utilized to target, manage, and treat difficult acne and acne lesions.
What Is a Kenalog Injection?
A Kenalog injection contains triamcinolone, an active ingredient that demonstrates strong anti-inflammatory properties. It is an injectable steroid treatment intended to stop the formation of a nodule and cystic acne. The diluted steroid injections get right to work by reducing the inflammation of the future breakout. They help clear up the acne outbreak in one to five days. Additionally, Kenalog helps minimize the possibility of the acne breakout leaving scars.

How Do Kenalog Injections Work?
When Kenalog shots are injected into the acne, it will automatically reduce the redness and inflammation, and level the lesion so the skin begins to heal instantly. In contrast to topical steroids, these injections reduce the likelihood of thinning the skin surface and remedy the problem faster.
First, the cyst will be carefully cleaned before injections are given through a very delicate needle, so there is minimal discomfort during treatment. The procedure is relatively quick. The injection itself is only sore if the pimple is enormous and painful. To reduce pain, we may numb the area with topical lidocaine before getting started.
These injections can quickly reduce inflammation. Over the next 24 hours, you will notice your blemish softening, leveling, and shrinking. While it may not completely disappear, the pimple will invariably become smaller and better heal itself within a week. The affected area of the skin will continue to improve over the next several days. If needed, patients can receive these injections once every four to eight weeks.
