Acne Scarring
Reclaim smooth skin at The Skin & Face Clinic
Get to grips with acne
Acne can leave lasting scars, typically deep pitted areas or hyperpigmentation / redness, which may affect your self-esteem and overall appearance. It’s a common concern, often resulting from the body’s own healing process after severe bouts of acne. Understanding the causes helps us provide effective, evidence-based treatments tailored to your unique skin needs.
At The Skin & Face Clinic, we have years of experience treating acne concerns, restoring a natural look – and just as importantly, self-confidence.
