How Does It Work?

Our acne treatments combine targeted in-clinic procedures with at home support to give you the best possible results.

In the clinic, we may use a combination of treatments such as chemical peels, LED light therapy, gentle extractions and skin needling, all selected based on your skin type and severity of acne. Each session starts with a thorough consultation, so we can assess your skin and adjust the treatment plan as your skin improves.

LED light therapy, especially blue light, helps kill acne-causing bacteria, while salicylic acid or lactic acid peels can reduce congestion and speed up cell turnover. We focus on non-invasive, skin-friendly methods to clear existing breakouts and prevent future ones.

At home, we’ll guide you with a simple, effective skincare routine tailored to your skin. This might include a gentle cleanser, treatment serums, and SPF, all acne-safe and free from pore clogging ingredients.

Who Is It For?

Our Acne Treatment is suitable for teens, young adults and adults dealing with mild to moderate acne, including hormonal breakouts, blackheads, whiteheads, and inflammatory acne.

It’s ideal for anyone who has ongoing breakouts or congested skin, wants to reduce acne scarring or pigmentation, feels like their current skincare isn’t working, is looking for a professional, long term solution.

We tailor the treatment to suit all skin types, oily, combination, or sensitive. If you’re unsure whether your skin can tolerate active treatments, we will do a patch test and start gently.

Who should avoid it? If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding or currently using certain prescription medications like Roaccutane (Isotretinoin), we may need to postpone or modify your treatment. We will always check your health and medication history beforehand to make sure the treatment is safe for you.

What to Expect

Your first visit starts with a detailed skin consultation, where we assess your skin condition, lifestyle factors, and skincare routine. Once we’ve built a clear picture, we’ll create a custom acne treatment plan.

During the appointment, you can expect a professional, gentle treatment that may include deep cleansing, exfoliation, extractions (if needed), LED light therapy, or a light peel. You’ll feel a mild tingling during active steps, but nothing too uncomfortable, many clients find the session relaxing.

Most treatments take around 45 minutes. You might leave with a slight redness that settles within a few hours. Aftercare is simple, avoid heavy makeup, sweating, or active skincare products for the next 24 hours, and wear SPF daily to protect your healing skin.

Consistency is key, so we often recommend a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart, combined with a personalised at home routine.

FAQs

1. How many acne treatments will I need?
It depends on your skin condition, but most clients start to see visible improvement after 3–4 sessions. For more stubborn acne, we may recommend a course of 6–8 treatments, spaced 2–4 weeks apart. After that, occasional maintenance sessions help keep your skin clear long term.

2. Will the treatment dry out my skin?
We avoid harsh, stripping ingredients that cause dryness or irritation. Our treatments focus on balancing the skin, not drying it out. We’ll also recommend a home routine that hydrates and protects your skin barrier, while still targeting breakouts.

3. Can I wear makeup after the treatment?
It’s best to avoid wearing makeup for at least 24 hours after your appointment to let your skin breathe and recover. After that, you can return to your normal routine, we suggest makeup that is non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores).

4. Is the treatment painful?
Some parts may feel a bit tingly or warm (like light peels or LED therapy). We are always careful to adjust the treatment to your comfort level, especially if your skin is inflamed or sensitive.

5. What products should I use at home?
We will help you build a simple, effective routine using acne safe products that suit your skin. Typically, this includes a gentle cleanser, a targeted serum (like salicylic acid or niacinamide), a light moisturiser, and SPF. Avoid using too many products or over exfoliating, less is often more when it comes to acne prone skin.
