ACNE MANAGEMENT

Our acne programme is appropriate for all grades — from mild comedonal acne through to moderate-to-severe presentations managed alongside medical oversight by Dr George. Adults with hormonal breakouts, those with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and patients who have tried over-the-counter products without success are particularly well served. A thorough skin consultation with Renee is the starting point. She will grade your acne, identify triggers, and design a personalised protocol for management and treatment.

In-clinic treatment options (combined as appropriate) may include the following : -Medical-grade chemical peels (salicylic, mandelic, azelaic, or Jessner's) to reduce congestion and inflammation -Micro-needling for established acne scarring once active breakouts are controlled, with booster infusion to promote healing . -LED light therapy (blue LED targets acne bacteria; red LED reduces inflammation) -CO2 laser for moderate-to-severe textural scarring -Pico laser for post-inflammatory pigmentation -Extractions and deep cleansing performed safely by Renee. Medical management (Dr George): For moderate-to-severe or hormonally driven acne, Dr George can provide clinical assessment and prescribe evidence-based pharmaceutical treatments as part of a comprehensive integrated plan. This combination of clinical treatment and medical oversight consistently delivers outcomes that neither approach alone can achieve.

Pre: Discontinue physical scrubs 3 days prior to appointments. Inform Renee of all current skincare and medications — isotretinoin in particular requires a mandatory pause before certain treatments. Avoid picking or squeezing active breakouts before your appointment. Post: Follow the prescribed home care protocol precisely- consistency is critical. Do not introduce new products without checking with Renee first. SPF 50+ daily is non-negotiable. Initial purging may occur in the first 2–4 weeks of a new protocol — this is normal and expected. Results from a comprehensive acne programme are typically visible within 6–12 weeks.
