What is Acne?

Acne is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages. It is characterised by pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads, and can be caused by a variety of factors including genetics, hormonal changes, stress, and diet.

Our clinic offers a range of treatments designed to address all types of acne. Our specialised dermal clinician will start by assessing your skin and developing a bespoke treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Our treatments include:

  • Diet, lifestyle, and personal hygiene coaching:
    We offer expert advice on nutrients to support skin and immune system health regarding acne. Our dermal clinician Merran Wood is trained in Clinical Nutrition, to help guide individual patients to make any necessary dietary modifications to give their acne the best chance of recovery. Lifestyle and hygiene coaching gives patients skill and knowledge to best support their acne treatments in the home environment.

  • Dermatology approved topical skin care products:
    We offer specialised non-prescription skin care products to assist with oil control, exfoliate excess skin cells that block pores, fade acne scars, minimise bacteria spread, and repair and maintain skin barrier health.

  • Comedome steam extractions:
    We offer sterile skin extraction treatments to remove comedomes (white heads & black heads) trapped under the skin, to prevent acne breakouts.

  • Chemical Peels:
    We offer chemical peels that can be used to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores, which can be effective in treating acne.

  • Laser Therapy and LED Light Therapy:
    We offer laser therapy to reduce the appearance of acne scars, as well as to reduce inflammation and kill bacteria on the skin.

  • Photodynamic Therapy with ALA or methilaminolevulinate:
    An office-based procedure that involves application of photosensitising topical medication followed by application of LED and lasers to activate the drug and reduce inflammation and kill bacteria on the skin.
