Acne
Acne is a common skin condition that affects many people, especially during their teenage years. This happens when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, leading to the formation of spots, pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads.
The main cause of acne is the overproduction of sebum, which is an oily substance that helps to moisturise and protect the skin. When too much sebum is produced, it can mix with dead skin cells and clog hair follicles, leading to the formation of acne.
Hormonal changes during puberty are one of the main reasons why acne is so common in teenagers. These changes can cause the body to produce more sebum, which can increase the likelihood of developing acne. However, other factors such as stress, diet, genetics, and certain medications can also contribute to acne.
While acne can be frustrating and cause emotional stress, there are many treatments available that can help manage the condition. These include IPL LASER, CHEMICAL PEELS, MICRONEEDLING, LED THERAPY as well as skincare, and lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet and regular exercise.

Medical Grade Facials
Medical-grade facials offered at Devine Skin use advanced technology to deeply cleanse and exfoliate the skin, unclog pores, and remove impurities. This treatment helps to reduce inflammation and redness caused by acne, as well as improving the overall appearance and texture of the skin.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels are another effective treatment for acne, as they work by removing the outer layer of dead skin cells and stimulate cell turnover. Peels can help to unclog pores, reduce oil production, and improve the appearance of acne scars.to reveal fresher, healthier skin underneath. The clinic uses a range of peels, including glycolic, salicylic, and mandelic acid peels, which are tailored to each client's skin type and condition.
IPL Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is also available at Devine Skin, which can target and destroy the bacteria that cause acne. This treatment can also help to reduce the appearance of acne scars and pigmentation, leaving the skin looking smoother and more even-toned.
Microneedling
Another treatment that may be beneficial for those with acne is Microneedling, which involves the use of a device that creates tiny micro-injuries in the skin. This triggers the body's natural healing response, which can help to reduce inflammation and stimulate collagen production, leading to smoother, clearer skin.
