Acne

Acne vulgaris

Acne is a common skin condition in which pores become blocked and can become inflamed. This leads to blackheads and whiteheads, spots, and sometimes deeper, painful blemishes. Acne occurs most commonly on the face, back, shoulders, and chest.

Although acne is often considered a teenage problem, adults can be affected too. Approximately 80% of young people experience acne to some degree, and many adults continue to deal with it well into later life.

Acne develops through a combination of factors, including increased sebum production, blocked pores, hormones, and bacteria that naturally occur on the skin. Because the causes vary from person to person, a personalised treatment approach is important.

Timely and effective treatment can help reduce inflammation, prevent new breakouts, and minimise the risk of scarring or pigmentation. In addition, having calm, healthy skin can make a significant difference to your confidence.
