Acne

Reduce acne with safe and effective treatments in Birmingham

Acne is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages. It can be caused by a number of factors, including hormones, genetics, and diet. 

Acne can cause a variety of blemishes, including blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, and cysts. While acne is not a serious medical condition, it can have a significant impact on self-esteem and quality of life.

The impact of acne on the skin

Acne can cause a number of problems for the skin, including:

  • Inflammation: Acne can cause inflammation of the skin, which can lead to redness, swelling, and pain.
  • Scarring: Acne can cause scarring, which can be permanent.
  • Hyperpigmentation: Acne can cause hyperpigmentation, which is the darkening of the skin.
  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH): PIH is a type of hyperpigmentation that can occur after acne breakouts have healed.

Acne treatments in Birmingham

Microneedling treatment with the DermaPen, Platelet Rich Plasma, and chemical peels are all effective treatments for acne. These treatments work in different ways to improve the appearance of the skin and reduce the risk of scarring.

  • Microneedling: Microneedling via the highly effective DermaPen is a minimally invasive procedure that uses tiny needles to create micro-channels in the skin. This process stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which can help to improve the appearance of acne scars.
  • Platelet Rich Plasma: Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a type of therapy that uses the patient’s own blood plasma to stimulate the healing process. PRP can be injected into the skin to improve the appearance of acne scars and other skin conditions.
  • Chemical Peels: Chemical peels use a chemical solution to remove the outer layer of the skin. This process can help to improve the appearance of acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and other skin conditions.
