Acne treatment in London: Expert Care for Adult Skin

Acne doesn’t stop once you leave your teens, and you’re definitely not alone if you regularly experience breakouts. We know how much spots and redness can affect your confidence so don’t worry, we’re here to help.

The very first step in treating acne is for us to understand where the root cause comes from and at our London clinic, our aim is to assess your skin in detail so we can find the best way to treat it.

Understanding your acne

Adult acne can originate from a whole host of factors, including:

• Hormonal changes. In women, this could come during monthly cycles, pregnancy or menopause and men also experience hormonal changes too.

• Skincare products or previous treatments that didn’t suit your skin

• Skin inflammation or sensitivity

• Overactive oil glands

• Lifestyle factors, such as stress or diet

We want to understand what’s happening beneath the first layer of your skin, which is why our skincare consultation is so detailed.

How we assess acne at the clinic

Our detailed skin consultation lasts approximately 30 minutes and during your appointment, we’ll take a close look at:

• The severity of acne

• Your current skincare routine and previous treatments

• Inflammation and sensitivity levels

• Lifestyle factors that could be contributing to your breakouts

We use the OBSERV 520X to look at multiple layers of your skin, which is how we’re able to find the root cause of your acne. It takes multiple photos of your skin during the analysis, which means we can keep a really close eye on your progress too.

Acne treatments we offer 

Everybody’s skin is different, and depending on your skin consultation we may recommend a combination of:

• Laser treatments to reduce inflammation and clear blocked pores

• Chemical peels

• Microneedling

• Medical-grade skincare designed for acne-prone skin
