Acne Management

Acne is a medical condition that can have psychological and physical impacts, such as facial scarring and post-inflammatory pigmentation (PIH). It can occur anywhere on the body; however, face, chest, and back acne are the most common.

The first step when treating acne is a detailed assessment to determine the type, grade, and contributing causes. Acne can be hormonal, so hormonal contributors must be thoroughly investigated and managed medically.

Management includes medical-grade in-clinic skin treatments, strict avoidance of all stripping skincare agents, including micro-exfoliants, and regular, consistent use of pH-balanced cleansers, SPF 50+, BHA, zinc, and lactopeptides with B3 serums, soothing moisturisers, and mild retinoids as the topical treatments of choice.
