Acne: Control Your Skin – Don’t Let It Control You!

What Is Acne?

Acne affects a whopping 80% of Americans between the ages of 11 and 30, with most of us affected by it at some point in our lives. The hormonal shifts that affect puberty, childbirth, peri- and menopause & childbirth are just some of the causes of this debilitating skin condition. The cause of acne might differ, but anyone suffering from acne will tell you the same thing. That it feels miserable, and that it dictates whether you are going to have a good day – or not – by the way your skin looks & feels when you wake up. Don’t let that happen any longer – let us help you get back in control of your skin!

Acne is a very common skin condition that flares up when our pores become blocked by sebum (an oily substance), hair, dead skin cells & bacteria, which in turn causes blockages in the skin that can lead to unpleasant pimples, whiteheads, nodules & blackheads that feel as if they are resistant to any type of treatment that you try! It is a condition that can be very damaging to your self-esteem, & can really harm your confidence.

Acne can present in many ways, including:

• Blackheads – dark bumps which are in reality clogged follicles filled with excess oil and dead skin.
  
• Whiteheads – closed spots that are filled with oil and dead skin.
• Fungal acne – Caused by a yeast overgrowth in the hair follicles which can feel itchy and sore.

• Nodules – deep, painful pimples formed deep down in the skin as opposed to on the surface.

• Cysts – pus-filled pimples that can lead to scarring if left untreated & irritated.

• Pustules – Pus-filled pimples, with a white head surrounded by pinky-red inflamed skin. These can scar easily unless left to heal.
• Papules – small pinky-red spots that become inflamed and may feel sore.

We have invested in an amazing range of tests, treatments & therapies designed to bring each unique client the exact benefits that they need, using approaches that work ideally for them.

Medical Peels 

We offer medical peels which can help resolve & improve acne. A recent review published in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology makes clear the beneficial nature of medical peels when it comes to winning the fight against acne. We find that it works very well for our clients! 

As with many other medical treatments, the effectiveness & safety of a peel procedure depends entirely on the medical expertise of the practice where you undergo treatment. As a medical practice with many years of experience, we remain on the cutting edge of anti-aging & aesthetics & we retain an extremely high quality of care with every single test, treatment & therapy that we undertake. You can rest assured that you are in completely safe hands!

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) treatments stand at the forefront of aesthetic medicine, allowing us to crystallize the uniquely powerful qualities of your own blood plasma and to use it to rejuvenate & promote the healing of acne-ravaged skin. Research clarifies its positive role as a method of acne treatment, when compared to many other interventions, such as micro-needling. 

Botox

We also offer botox treatments, which can lead to significant improvements in acne. The receptors for the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in your body that Botox blocks (temporarily preventing wrinkles) are the same receptors that work with the skin’s sebaceous glands, which produce oil. Using Botox can subsequently block oil production, preventing bacteria from forming that are a direct cause of acne. 

Ozone Therapy

Ozone Therapy can offer a positive means of fighting acne, neutralizing toxins and impurities, improving blood circulation & offering rejuvenating benefits.

Lifestyle & Nutrition-Focused Interventions

We can offer a whole host of testing & associated therapies & treatments for a range of nutritional, health, hormonal & lifestyle factors that may lie at the root of your acne issues. For example, menopausal acne can become a real issue for some women, whilst a leaky gut and severely imbalanced gut microbiomes can lead to skin flare-ups, rosacea, eczema psoriasis, and acne. We can test for & treat all of these issues safely & effectively and then treat them to get you the results that you need.

Dermapen

One of our favorite products is the Dermapen, an amazing intervention for acne, which also offers a whole host of other benefits for the skin.

The Dermapen is a micro-needling treatment that is quick and easy to use, offering scarless healing from acne, also promoting natural collagen production & helping to resolve wrinkles and other scars & pigmentation.

Intensif

Intensif offers similarly powerful benefits, combining radiofrequency with micro-needling and offering powerful results for acne scars, stretch marks, poor skin texture, and other skin issues.
