What is Acne?
Acne happens when pores get blocked by oil, dead skin, and bacteria, leading to breakouts like pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. Etc. Whether you’re a teen or an adult, acne can strike, but with the right treatment and care, clearer, glowing skin is within reach.

Treatment Combinations
Acne treatments can be combined based on the severity of the acne and the patient’s skin type. For instance, chemical peels might be followed by microneedling or laser treatments for more effective results on both active acne and scarring.
Treatments for Acne
For acne treatment, Shumailas can offer a wide range of both clinical and aesthetic treatments designed to target the underlying causes of acne, reduce breakouts, and improve skin texture.
Chemical peels are effective treatments for various skin concerns. The salicylic acid peel targets oil and acne by penetrating deep into pores to reduce blockages and inflammation. In contrast, the glycolic acid peel exfoliates the top layer of the skin, promoting faster cell turnover and helping to reduce acne scars and pigmentation. Jessner’s peel combines multiple acids for a more intensive approach, making it suitable for reducing acne scars and active acne lesions.
Laser skin resurfacing using Erbium YAG effectively reduces acne scars by removing damaged skin layers and stimulating collagen production. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) targets bacteria and reduces inflammation, making it particularly effective for active acne and post-acne pigmentation. Additionally, blue light therapy specifically kills acne-causing bacteria (P. acnes) and reduces active breakouts without damaging the surrounding skin, providing a gentle yet effective solution for acne management.
Microneedling, whether combined with mesotherapy or performed alone, is an effective treatment for improving skin texture and reducing acne scars. Microneedling with mesotherapy enhances healing and stimulates collagen production, delivering additional nutrients to the skin. Meanwhile, microneedling alone creates micro-injuries that stimulate skin repair and collagen formation, further aiding in reducing acne scars. Both approaches promote healthier, more resilient skin.
The HydraFacial with Acne Treatment Booster is a non-invasive facial designed to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate while targeting acne concerns. Enhanced with salicylic acid, it unclogs pores, reduces oil, and calms inflammation, making it ideal for mild to moderate acne. Enjoy clearer, smoother skin without downtime just remember to avoid heavy makeup and direct sun exposure post-treatment for best results.
Medical-grade skincare offers powerful options for acne treatment. Prescription strength retinoids, such as tretinoin, promote skin cell turnover, effectively reducing acne. Topical antibiotics like clindamycin target acne-causing bacteria and help minimise inflammation. Benzoyl peroxide further reduces bacteria and aids in clearing active acne lesions, while niacinamide helps control oil production, reduces inflammation, and promotes skin healing. Together, these ingredients provide a comprehensive approach to managing and improving acne-prone skin.
LED light therapy offers two effective treatments for acne and its aftermath. Blue LED therapy targets and kills acne-causing bacteria while also reducing inflammation, making it ideal for active breakouts. In contrast, red LED therapy calms skin inflammation and helps diminish post-acne redness, promoting overall skin healing. Together, these therapies provide a holistic approach to improving acne-prone skin and enhancing its appearance.
Exosome therapy for acne is an advanced treatment that uses regenerative cell derived particles, called exosomes, to repair and rejuvenate skin at the cellular level. Packed with growth factors and anti-inflammatory properties, exosomes help reduce acne by targeting inflammation, accelerating skin healing, and promoting a smoother, clearer complexion. This non-invasive treatment is ideal for those seeking long-term improvement in skin texture and a reduction in breakouts, leaving the skin healthier and more resilient over time.
Oral medications prescribed by a dermatologist can be crucial for managing more severe or persistent acne. Oral antibiotics are often used to treat cases that do not respond to topical treatments, helping to reduce bacteria and inflammation. For severe acne that remains unresponsive to other therapies, isotretinoin (commonly known as Accutane) is a powerful prescription option that addresses the condition comprehensively, often leading to significant improvement. Together, these medications provide targeted solutions for challenging acne cases.
Dermaplaning is an effective, non-invasive treatment for acne-prone skin, gently exfoliating to remove dead skin cells and fine hair that can trap oils and bacteria. By creating a smoother surface and allowing better absorption of skincare products, dermaplaning helps to reduce clogged pores and minimise breakouts. Ideal for those with mild acne or acne scars, this treatment leaves the skin feeling refreshed, clear, and radiant with no downtime.
