What is Acne?

Acne is a skin disease that has a genetic predisposition. It can occur at any age, but is commonly experienced during the teenage years. Acne may present itself in varying degrees of severity and can be worsened by certain diet and lifestyle factors. Medical acne treatment is available to alleviate acne outbreaks and prevent future occurrences.

What Are Acne Scars?

Acne scars are usually the result of inflamed blemishes. The skin attempts to repair these lesions by forming new collagen fibres. These repairs usually are not as smooth as the original skin, resulting in acne texture scars or more severe acne scars.

How Can I Treat My Acne & Acne Scars?

We usually recommend all acne clients to first consult with one of our doctors, nurses or therapists for a professional diagnosis and treatment plan. Our acne doctor in Melbourne or Adelaide will tailor treatments to suit your specific skin.
Our acne treatment is aimed at controlling sebum production, unclogging pores and killing bacteria. We only commence acne scar treatment after your acne is under control, as breakouts can risk further scar formation.

Acne Treatment Solutions

  1. Acne Skincare Treatment
    A good cosmeceutical skincare regime is vital for acne management on a day-to-day basis. This should continue even after your breakouts have cleared for ongoing maintenance.
  2. Prescription Medication
    For severe cases, the doctors at our acne clinic may prescribe antibiotics to help control further breakouts and accelerate the healing process.
  3. Chemical Peels
    Chemical peel treatments penetrate beneath the skin’s surface to unclog pores, remove dead skin and promote cell turnover.
  4. LED Therapy
    LED therapy uses red and blue light to help kill acne-causing bacteria, heal the skin and prevent future breakouts.
  5. Medical Lasers
    Medical-grade lasers are an advanced option to help control acne breakouts and rejuvenate blemished skin.

Acne Scarring Treatment Solutions

  1. Radiofrequency Microneedling
    An alternative to acne scar laser treatment and Thermage for acne scars, radiofrequency microneedling is a clinically proven method to heat up the deep dermal layers to resurface acne scars and promote collagen production. An acne wound must be sufficiently healed before this procedure is performed.
  2. Subcision and Punch Excision
    Severe cases of acne scarring may require subcision or punch excision to help level out very pronounced scars before commencing microneedling treatment. This should only be performed by a trained doctor at our acne clinic in Melbourne or Adelaide.
FAQs
What results can I expect from acne and acne scarring treatment?

You can expect clearer skin and fewer breakouts if you adhere to the recommended treatment plan by our medical team. Acne treatment often takes 4-6 weeks to show results and after the acne clears, ongoing maintenance is required to prevent future breakouts.

Depending on the severity, acne scarring treatments may require 1-3 months to start seeing an improved skin texture. In general, the level of improvement is proportional to the amount of
treatments you have.
