Acne
Acne is a common skin condition that affects people worldwide. Singapore's hot and humid tropical climate is a major factor that can worsen acne. High humidity levels cause excessive sweating, which can clog pores and lead to breakouts. When sweat mixes with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria, it creates an ideal environment for acne-causing bacteria to thrive.
What causes Acne
Acne occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and sometimes bacteria.
This blockage leads to inflammation, causing pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, cysts, and sometimes pustules.

Our Acne Solutions
After a consultation with our aesthetic doctor, these are various anti-Acne solutions that we offer
LASER THERAPIES
Laser therapy for acne is a non-invasive treatment that uses focused light energy to target and reduce the factors contributing to acne. Laser therapies can also reduce inflammation and unblock pores, leading to clearer skin over time. It is typically used in conjunction with other acne treatments, and results can vary depending on the severity of the acne and the type of laser used.
SKIN BOOSTERS
Skin boosters are injectable treatments designed to hydrate and rejuvenate the skin while improving its overall texture and appearance. Skin boosters can be beneficial in reducing post-acne scarring, controlling oil production, and enhancing the skin's ability to regenerate. By delivering moisture deep into the skin, skin boosters also help balance the skin’s appearance, making it smoother and more radiant.

FREQUENT FACE-WASHING PREVENTS ACNE
Dirty skin does not necessarily cause acne. Scrubbing your skin too vigorously, or using harsh soaps or chemicals to cleanse your skin can irritate the skin and worsen acne.
