Acne is a complex skin condition that varies in severity, from occasional breakouts to persistent, inflamed acne. At Dermathetics, our medical practitioners specialise in treating mild to moderate acne using a combination of advanced in-clinic treatments and medical-grade skincare. Whether you experience blackheads, pimples, or post-acne marks, we create a personalised treatment plan to restore your skin’s clarity and confidence. Our exclusive range of professional skincare products, available in-clinic and online, ensures long-term acne control and prevention.
Acne occurs when oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria clog the pores, leading to inflammation. Common triggers include:
✔ Excess oil production – Overactive sebaceous glands contribute to clogged pores.
✔ Hormonal fluctuations – Hormones, especially during puberty, pregnancy, or stress, can trigger breakouts.
✔ Bacterial growth – P. acnes bacteria thrive in blocked pores, worsening inflammation.
✔ Diet & lifestyle – High-glycaemic diets, stress, and lack of proper skincare can exacerbate acne.
Acne severity is classified into different levels, each requiring a tailored approach:
🔹 Mild Acne – Includes blackheads, whiteheads, and small pimples without significant inflammation.
🔹 Moderate Acne – More noticeable breakouts with papules, pustules, and occasional scarring.
🔹 Severe Acne – Deep cystic or nodular acne, which often leads to scarring and requires medical intervention. (For severe cystic acne, we recommend consulting a GP or dermatologist for oral medication.)
Managing acne requires a combination of in-clinic treatments and medical skincare to clear active breakouts, reduce scarring, and prevent future flare-ups. Our most effective acne treatments include:
✔ Professional Acne Treatments at Dermathetics
🔹 Deep Cleansing & Exfoliation Facial – Removes blackheads, unclogs pores, and controls excess oil.
🔹 Obagi Blue Radiance Peel – A powerful chemical peel that reduces acne breakouts and fades post-acne marks.
🔹 Microneedling (Dermapen) – Helps with acne scarring and stimulates skin renewal.
🔹 LED Light Therapy – Reduces inflammation and kills acne-causing bacteria.
✔ Medical-Grade Skincare
Our dermatology-led skincare solutions help regulate oil production, speed up skin renewal, and prevent future breakouts:
🔹 Obagi Clenziderm Kit – A prescription-strength skincare system targeting active acne.
🔹 Exfoliating Cleansers & Retinol-Based Serums – Promote cell turnover and keep pores clear.
