No pimples, no worries

Acne is a skin condition where the oil glands that are present at the base of your hair follicles get blocked due to excess oil and dead skin. It is very common and causes spots, normally called pimples or ‘zits’ and are found on the face, neck and the back..

You can opt for an Acne Freedom Program, a 7 step treatment, to get rid of acne and acne marks.

• It is extremely important to properly cleanse the face to remove all the makeup and accumulated dirt. In a clinic they use an active cleaner containing vitamin C and vitamin A and apply it by gently massaging the face to maximise penetration and relax the facial muscles. This helps to clean the skin and simultaneously  hydrate the skin.
• Hydradermabrasion is a crystal free exfoliation to remove the dead skin cells and simultaneously infuse and bath the skin gently in water.
• This involves applying a carbon peel and using an advanced Q switched laser to heat the carbon and disperse it to rejuvenate the skin and to control the acne quickly. This helps to give a fantastic glow to the face and make it look brighter.
• They then carefully clean the gland and extract the closed clogged pores clearing the skin of all infection.
• The procedure, gold toning, with an advanced Q-switched laser will leave your skin cleaner and fresher giving you a natural looking skin while reducing the inflammation and redness.
• Black peel, which is made from black rice is a mixture of salicylic acid and jasmonic acid which helps to improve various skin problems like acne, pigmentary problems and cysts. It reduces all the painful inflammatory acne lesions in just one sitting.
• Lastly a brightening mask containing ingredients like seaweed is applied to give a  glow to the face.

This is a one of a kind acne treatment program one can opt for to treat mild to severe acne problems.
