EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

How fast can I expect to have clear skin?

There is no overnight cure for acne, and in most instances and even with the strongest of medications, it often takes months to get acne under control and years of maintenance to keep your skin clear. Prepare to act on long-term treatment options. Most of the people see improvement after the first Acne treatment.

What factors have a tendency to aggravate those prone to acne?

Acne is very diverse and can have many aggravating factors. A thorough client questionnaire by our Acne Specialist is vital. There will be those of you who have tried everything; if you are not clearing up chances are that one or more of the factors listed below could be delaying your progress.

Stress – physical, emotional or job related stress.
Seasons – hormone levels fluctuate as seasons change, which alter the amount of oil produced (reaching their highest in October).
Climate – humidity induces excretion.
Pressure or Friction – caused by caps, headbands or anything in direct contact with the skin for any length of time.
Picking – picking not only aggravates, but can worsen an acne condition and induce scarring.
Diet – foods high in iodine (processed foods, salty snacks, etc.) should be eliminated. A well balanced diet is recommended.
Pregnancy – hormonal fluctuations affect skin conditions.
Birth Control Pills – consult your physician to have your proper dosage prescribed.
Cosmetics – the use of the wrong skin care products may have a devastating effect on your acne-prone skin condition.
Lifestyle – inadequate sleep (less than 8 hours per night) or drug and alcohol use.

Is acne hereditary?

Acne does run in families. If your parents had acne, it increases the chance that you will, but most acne occurs sporadically, for no obvious reason.

What causes acne?

Sebaceous glands, at the base of hairs, produce sebum. This greasy substance naturally moisturises the hair and skin. In acne excess sebum is produced.Excessive dead skin cells at the exit of the hair (pores) causes a blockage. The sebum is trapped causing blackheads and white heads (comedones).The comedones then can become colonised by normally harmless bacteria that live on the skin (P. acnes). This causes inflammation – red spots or papules and pus filled pustules.

What is acne?

Acne is a common skin condition that mainly affects the face. It causes spots; whiteheads, blackheads, red bumps (papules) and pustules. It is very common in teenagers, mostly resolving in a few years. Sometimes it can last several decades. Rarely it can start later in life, usually before the age of 40. It is not serious physically, but can be very distressing and impacts the quality of life.
