What is Acne?

Acne happens when pores clog with oil, dead skin, and bacteria. It can look like blackheads, whiteheads, inflamed bumps, or deeper cysts. Breakouts often cycle and can leave marks or scars.

Our team focuses on gentle, effective care. We match in-clinic treatments with smart home routines so your skin can settle and stay supported.

Common Causes

Excess sebum and C. acnes in pores can trigger inflammation.

Teen years, periods, pregnancy, and perimenopause can increase oil.

Stress hormones and poor sleep may worsen breakouts.

Heavy cosmetics, comedogenic oils, tight hats or masks can clog pores.


High glycaemic foods or smoking can be associated with flares for some.

In-Clinic Treatment Options

How it helps acne: Professional chemical peels dissolve dead skin and unclog pores so oil and debris can clear more easily. This helps reduce new breakouts and smooth post-breakout roughness.

Best for: Blackheads, whiteheads, congestion, early inflammatory bumps, post-acne marks.

Plan: Usually 3 to 6 sessions, 2 to 4 weeks apart, with barrier-friendly home care.

Downtime: Minimal to moderate. Mild flaking is common for a few days.

How it helps acne: Medical-grade light can calm visible redness and support skin recovery. It is gentle on sensitive, breakout-prone skin and pairs well with other treatments.

Best for: Inflamed breakouts, reactive or sensitive skin, maintenance between treatments.

Plan: Often 6 to 12 sessions, 1 to 2 times per week initially, then spaced out.

How it helps acne: A deep cleanse with gentle peel and vacuum extraction lifts oil and debris from pores, then infuses targeted serums to rehydrate without heaviness.

Best for: Blackheads, congestion, dullness after breakouts, uneven texture.

Plan: Series of 3 to 6 sessions, then maintenance based on your skin cycle.

Downtime: None to minimal. Skin may look freshly pink for a short time.

How it helps acne: BroadBand Light can reduce the look of red and brown post-acne marks and improve overall clarity. Certain settings may also help calm active breakouts in suitable skins.

Best for: Post-inflammatory redness or pigmentation, overall tone unevenness.

Plan: Typically 3 to 5 sessions, about 4 weeks apart, with strict sun care.

Downtime: Minimal. Temporary redness or darkening of spots can occur before they fade.

Frequently Asked Questions

Acne starts when pores clog with oil and dead skin. Bacteria and inflammation build on top of that. Hormones, stress, and genetics shape how often it flares.

Adult acne is common. Hormonal shifts, stress, skincare habits, and lifestyle can keep pores reactive even when teenage acne has passed.

If breakouts cluster around the jaw, chin, and cycle, hormones may be driving it. A proper assessment helps confirm patterns and plan care.

For some people, high-glycaemic foods and certain dairy can be linked to flares. Balanced meals, plenty of water, and watching personal triggers can help.

Keep it simple. Gentle cleanse, non-comedogenic hydrator, and daily SPF. Add actives slowly to avoid barrier stress. Consistency beats harsh scrubs.

Your plan depends on acne type and sensitivity. Many begin with HydraFacial or gentle peels for clearing, add LED for calming, and later consider BBL for marks. RF microneedling is a later step for scarring.

Use a gentle cleanser, non-comedogenic hydrator, and daily SPF. Avoid picking, harsh scrubs, and new strong actives just before sessions. After treatment, follow the simple aftercare we provide to keep the barrier calm.

Peels dissolve the dead skin and excess oil that clog pores. By lifting this build-up, they reduce new breakouts and smooth rough texture. Strength and acids are chosen for your skin type to protect the barrier.

Specific light wavelengths calm visible redness and support skin recovery. LED is gentle, suits sensitive or reactive skin, and is often used between other treatments to keep inflammation down.
