Acne Treatments

What is Acne?

Acne is a common inflammatory skin condition that occurs when oil (sebaceous) glands get clogged, leading to pimples, whiteheads, and blackheads. There are several reasons why acne occurs, including hormonal imbalances, genetics, poor diet, excessive sweating, pore-clogging (comedogenic) skin products/makeup, and stress. 

Acne can be a long-term issue that persists throughout adulthood, but this doesn’t mean it’s untreatable. There are many effective ways you can combat acne and achieve clearer, healthier skin.

Clay Mask Peel Acne treatments

OC Skin offers a range of bespoke skin treatments, tailored to your individual needs and concerns, these are designed to clear acne-prone skin and control breakouts. 

Our signature Dermaceutic Clay Mask Peel is among our most popular acne treatments. Combining two-star ingredients: glycolic and salicylic acid, this mask will detoxify your skin, drawing out excess sebum and clearing dead skin that’s causing breakouts. 

Our resurfacing AHA Peel is designed to minimise mild acne, including blackheads and whiteheads, ensuring a smoother, brighter complexion.

Our Milk Peel is best for more sensitive skin types. This treatment is formulated with lactic acid which gently sloughs away dead skin, revealing smooth, glowing skin.

If you’re seeking a more advanced treatment, our Crystal Peel is a likely choice. This treatment works deep into the pores, drawing out acne-causing impurities, minimising inflammation, and reducing scarring, making it an ideal treatment if you experience deeper acne, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), and uneven skin texture.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Areas Can Be Treated?

Our targeted acne treatments can be applied all over the face and neck. As our treatments are completely customised, we can focus on targeting certain regions of the face, depending on your key problem areas. Our treatments can be applied to the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin), nasolabial folds, cheeks, jawline, and neck area.

How Often Should You Get a Treatment If You Have Acne?

The frequency of treatments you need depends on the type of treatment and your skin type. Some of our treatments are performed in a series of blocks, such as some of our chemical peels, whereas other, more advanced treatments can be one-offs. 

Generally, we recommend treatment anywhere from 2 – 6 weeks apart to keep acne at bay. Factors including acne severity and skin sensitivity come into play when deciding how often you need treatment.

What Can I Expect During & After Treatment?

Each of our treatments works in unique and effective ways to clear the skin. 

If you opt for our signature Dermaceutic Clay Mask Peel, you can expect a relaxing treatment with no post-treatment downtime. Some people may experience some initial purging after this detoxifying treatment, as it draws impurities to the surface. Purging is a good sign that indicates the treatment is working as it increases cell turnover and will subside. 

If you choose any of our chemical peels, you may also experience some post treatment skin redness & sensitivity, but remember to always wear sun protection after our chemical peels, as your skin will be more susceptible to sun damage as it regenerates. 

Whichever treatment you choose, you can expect a clearer, brighter, and healthier complexion!

Can I Get Rid of Acne Fast?

We understand it can be frustrating but unfortunately, Acne is not a condition that can be cleared overnight and does require patience.

However, we do offer a range of fast-acting treatments that can deliver noticeable results after just one treatment. 

Our Dermaceutic Clay Mask Peel will instantly draw out impurities in the skin, leaving you with clearer, tighter pores and reduce acne inflammation. Our selection of advanced chemical peels, such as our bespoke AHA Peel and Crystal Peel, will speed up your skin’s cell turnover, revealing a clearer, smoother complexion. 

What Acne Treatment Is Best For Sensitive Skin?

Our Milk Peel treatment is a fantastic treatment for sensitive skin. This dermatological-grade treatment contains lactic acid, a gentle exfoliant that lifts dead skin cells and unclogs pores, leaving you with a smoother, firmer, and more radiant complexion. 

If you have sensitive, acne-prone skin, book a consultation with our skin experts to find out which treatment is best for you.
