Acne scars will fade as your body heals from the laser energy used to treat acne. This will result in clearer, younger‑looking skin

Steps in the Acne Treatment Process at AKJ Skin and Laser Centre

The adolescent years are when acne is most prevalent, but it can occur anytime. Many factors contribute to this condition, such as heredity, cyclical hormone changes, stress, prolonged exposure to higher levels of humidity, and the application of products with excessive amounts of oil.

Acne can vary widely in its severity and cause, and therefore, treatment varies. A universal cure is impossible to develop due to the diversity of acne, skin types, and sensitivity.

You can get help with your acne from AKJ Skin and Laser Centre, where we provide customised care for your skin. The clear-skin programme we create for you is tailored to your specific needs and preferences. We keep a close eye on you to ensure your skin clears up and stays that way. Our success rate in curing acne is at a whopping 99%. We at AKJ Skin and Laser Centre have designed a unique programme just for you. We collaborate with you to inform you, stop future breakouts, and treat any scarring resulting from acne.

We also provide customised in-office acne treatments such as exfoliation and extraction. In addition, we use only the most advanced, top-shelf professional products during our facials, peels, and laser treatments to enhance your skin's health and appearance.

Each patient is carefully analysed at AKJ Skin and Laser Centre before a course of treatment is decided. Treatment options include:

Topical creams or Ointments
Tablets
Laser resurfacing
Chemical peels

Acne scars are another issue we can help with, thanks to our state-of-the-art laser treatments. It takes about 8-12 weeks to completely clear up your face, but many people notice a significant improvement in their acne within the first month. Embarrassment due to acne will soon be a distant memory.

We want to be the last place you visit for skin and acne care.

Pre Care

Post Care

Several preparatory measures should be taken before an acne treatment is administered.

You need your doctor's okay to try a chemical peel for acne if you take any medication, including over-the-counter remedies.

Ensure that your doctor is aware of any AHA (lactic acid, glycolic acid, etc.) or salicylic acid-containing skincare products you use.

Uneven pigmentation in the treated area can be caused by overexposure to the sun up to two months before the procedure. Consult your medical professional about the proper use of sun protection measures and the amount of time you can safely spend in the sun.

If you smoke, refrain from doing so for two weeks before and following treatment. Doing so increases the likelihood that no further complications will arise and aids the body in its recovery.

Post-treatment instructions must be followed correctly for a speedy recovery.

The skin will be red, swollen, and itchy after laser resurfacing. You can use ice packs and a pain reliever to alleviate the pain.

Put on sunscreen every day; following a chemical peel for acne, your skin will be more sensitive to the sun.

Use a mild cleanser for a few days after treatment or until your skin has fully healed.

Public whirlpools, a breeding ground for bacteria, should be avoided.

FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes acne?

Pimples are not just a cosmetic issue; acne is an actual pore disease. Acne develops when hair follicles become blocked or clogged with oil, dirt, and dead skin cells from the surface of your body. Acne is essentially a genetic predisposition, though drugs, medications, or chemical exposure can also trigger it. Acne treatments kill the bacteria that cause acne and remove the excess oils that clog pores.

What are the chances that my acne will clear up by itself?

Although acne typically clears up during adolescence, some continue to suffer from it well into adulthood. However, our experts can treat acne effectively in almost all cases. You need to locate an appropriate course of treatment.

If I have acne, should I stop using makeup?

Refrain from giving up makeup completely; experiment with new brands or looks. An aggravation of your acne's severity may be at play if you see new pimples forming on either side of your temples after applying a hair cream or gel.

How long will it take for my acne to clear up if I use your Acne Treatment programme?

If you stick to our programme, your skin can clear up to 90% in as little as three to four months with our holistic approach. We address your overall lifestyle and acne; you can expect these improvements to last for as long as you keep up your new, skin-friendly routine. You won't need to come in quite as regularly once your skin is clear.

Do I need prepare for the first appointment?

Yes! It would help if you stopped using any acne medication, whether it's prescribed or over-the-counter, one week before your consultation. This is because your skin will be overly sensitive to the various serums we use to test it during the consultation session if you have recently used these medications. All retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, and salicylic acids fall under this category.

Can a child take acne medication?

A paediatric dermatologist is a suitable person to see if your kid has acne. Inquire about drugs you should avoid, dosage, drug interactions, side effects, and the potential impact of treatment on a child's development and growth.
