Acne can be a challenging skin concern to live with. Fortunately progress has been made in understanding and treating acne. This common condition is often triggered by more than just puberty or hormonal changes. Factors such as a poor diet, stress, lack of exercise, inferior skincare products or simply not taking enough care of your skin can all generate unwanted outbreaks.
While based on professional experience, this information is still just a general guide for overall skin health. There is no substitute for coming in and talking to us personally. For a tailored treatment plan and specific advice come and see us for a complete skin profile where we will talk about your particular concern and what your skin needs.
What causes acne?
Besides the obvious triggers already mentioned, there are many other potential causes of acne and various options for treating and reducing this distressing condition. Remember, acne does not need to be permanent! If you treat your skin to the right cleansing and maintenance routine, find out the source of your breakouts, and take care of them as soon as they appear, then the concern can thankfully be short-lived.
Is there a permanent cure?
While knowledge of the condition and the quality of treatment continues to expand, acne remains a potentially complicated condition. Today, there are many effective ways to drastically reduce the severity of the breakouts and control oil flow. However, it is important to recognise that persistent acne can be a symptom of more serious underlying problems that you may need to consult a doctor or dermatologist about. Advanced skin treatments, when used regularly, are a cost-effective and a proven long term method for controlling acne and oily skin.
Book in for a free skin consultation with our professional skin Therapists, they will profile your skin using a skin scanner to determine the best course of treatments to reduce your acne and help to heal your skin.
We believe in recommending you products that are beneficial to your skin and will produce results. That is why we are proud to provide tailored skin care regimes from ASI – The Australian Skin Institute to our clients.
What You Can Do
Avoid touching your face
Use recommended products and stick to your skin care regieme
Eat a balanced diet and drink plenty of water
Wash makeup brushes regularly with antibacterial washes to prevent the spread of bacteria.
Stress produces cortisol which aggravates the skin and can lead to acne. It’s important to destress, unwind and relax, to keep your skin clear, and your mind calm
Change bath towels and pillow cases every few days to reduce the risk of spreading bacteria
Reduce build-up of oils and bacteria with a good acne cleanser
Do not squeeze active acne
Avoid using abrasive skin scrubs, opt for a chemical exfoliant or peel
Use non-comedogenic cosmetics and makeup
Avoid using skincare products containing excess perfumes, preservatives and additives
Exercise! Regular exercise is great for your overall health and wellbeing
What We Can Do
Your professional Skin Therapist will perform a thorough skin profile with our skin scanner to determine which treatments will best target your concerns and design a treatment plan to deliver the best possible ongoing results. Everyone is different. No two approaches are exactly the same. Here are a number of choices:
LED Light Therapy kills acne-causing bacteria and clears congestion to reveal healthy, clean skin
Professional Peels free your skin of congestion making it both smoother and softer
Hydra-Micro is an advanced skin treatment to resurface skin texture and flush out your pores
Skin Needling is an excellent treatment that stimulates your natural healing response to help minimise pitting or scarring caused by acne. This treatment is only suitable once active breakouts of acne have cleared.
