SKIN CONCERNS

Acne & Congestion

Breakouts, blackheads and clogged pores, properly assessed and treated with a plan that suits your skin.

UNDERSTANDING ACNE

What causes acne and congestion?

Acne and congestion happen when pores become blocked with oil and dead skin cells. Bacteria and inflammation can then lead to breakouts, from blackheads and whiteheads to red, tender spots. It affects men and women at any age, on the face, chest and back.

Common causes

  • Excess oil production
  • A build-up of dead skin cells
  • Hormonal changes
  • Bacteria and inflammation
  • Stress, diet and lifestyle factors
  • Products that don’t suit your skin

Signs you might notice

  • Blackheads and whiteheads
  • Clogged or enlarged-looking pores
  • Red, inflamed or tender spots
  • Oily or shiny skin
  • Marks left behind after breakouts

ASSESSMENT FIRST

Why professional assessment matters

Acne has different causes and types, and the wrong treatment can make it worse. Your Skin Scan + Consultation helps us understand what’s driving your breakouts, how sensitive your skin is, and which treatment, or combination, is suitable for you. If your acne is severe, painful or scarring, we may also recommend you see your GP or a dermatologist.

TREATMENT OPTIONS

Treatments we may recommend

Your therapist will confirm which treatment, or combination of treatments, suits your skin after your Skin Scan + Consultation. Not every treatment is suitable for every skin.
