Treating Acne: Clinical Dermatology at its Best

Is your acne hampering your quality of life? Is the adolescent issue chasing you into adulthood? Clini-Derma is here to help.

Acne is an extremely common skin issue. Most commonly seen among adolescents, acne also occurs among young adults and adults. It can cause scarring of the skin; in extreme cases, it may lead to permanent disfiguration. Not just that; it can also cause emotional issues associated with unpleasant physical changes, such as low self-esteem and anxiety.

But not to worry! Clini-Derma’s team of dedicated specialists are here to help with your skin issues! At our clinic, you will be sure to get targeted treatment for acne.

WHAT IS ACNE?

Acne (acne vulgaris), is a common problem among adolescents and young adults. It occurs when the hair follicles become inflamed. This is caused when the pores on the skin get clogged by oil secretions and dead skin.

Acne is most likely to occur in areas that have a greater number of oil glands. This includes the chest, back, and face. Our bodies produce sebum naturally; however, when there is an excess production of sebum, the pores get blocked. When this happens, the system experiences the production of bacteria that feeds on the sebum. This inflames the acne, leading to lesions.

Apart from this, hormonal changes, adverse reaction to skincare, and different kinds of environmental factors might also cause acne.

At Clini-Derma, our experienced doctors will address your condition to get to its root, and prescribe a tailored treatment for you.

ACNE DIAGNOSIS

When you go to the doctor with acne, you will be asked about:

  • How long you’ve been experiencing symptoms
  • The medications you are currently on or have stopped
  • Your family health history, lifestyle, and diet

The doctor will examine your lesions to determine the kind of acne. Then you will be given a tailored treatment plan.

Chemical Peels

These are preventative measures. These are done with salicylic or glycolic acid, which is applied to the skin. This improves skin texture by removing sebum, dead skin, and dirt from the pores. This process unclogs the pores and helps the skin heal.

Laser treatments

These are very effective for removing scars and blemishes left behind by acne. At Clini-Derma, we employ state-of-the-art laser treatments such as Fraxel, Fractional CO2, and Cutera, among others. The laser removes the skin’s upper layer, triggering collagen production. This makes the skin smoother and more uniform in texture.

This is an incredibly effective treatment and is the most suitable one in maximum cases. The treatment lasts around 4-12 weeks.
