Acne - a Spotty Subject

Growing up as a teenager I always believed that my spots would miraculously disappear once I reached adulthood and I would never ever suffer from spots again and I would have beautiful clear mature skin. How wrong was I!

Did anyone tell you, you will get acne in your 30's? No, only teenagers have acne right? unfortunately not, as adults we can also suffer from acne and guess what, yep I suffer, and I am on the wrong side of 30… WHY???  I also have eczema on my face, and my doctor does prescribe me cream, but he also advises me to be careful with it as it can damage the skin! But then I find the acne damages my skin, so what do I do? I carry on with my quest looking for that magic cream/moisturiser to make it all go away and leave my skin amazingly flawless - it’s a dream unfortunately. I still secretly hope that when I maybe hit the next milestone of my age, it will miraculously clear up.So what is acne?  There are two forms: teenage acne and adult acne. Acne is a skin disease that involves the oil glands at the base of the tiny hair follicles, and the glands fill with Sebum (oil) and get blocked, they then become inflamed/infected.

Dermatologist research has linked acne to several factors that can trigger breakouts: Hormones and hormonal balance, Genes, Stress, The environment, Medication, Diet, Cosmetic products, and Allergies. So many possibly causes, and a maze to find the solution.

Sk:n is a cosmetic clinic and have been offering treatments for over 20 years now, with 40 clinics nationwide, appointing the most experienced doctors. They offer an array of treatments with the latest rejuvenation techniques and advanced laser, including Botox, laser hair removal, skin peels and laser tattoo removal. Not forgetting the state-of-the-art Acne treatment.

Sk:n also offer acne scar treatment, for all those old and new post-breakout scars. Most blemishes only last for a week or so, however post-acne scarring can last for months or even longer. With a choice of scar treatments, all are aimed to either leave the scar heavily faded or completely removed. The treatment best for you does depend on the extent of the scaring, the skin type and the desired results. With all this to consider it is a good idea to firstly have a consultation, which Sk:n can also offer.

They also offer a comprehensive after-care package to provide everything you need to look after and maintain your newly treated skin, ensuring that you achieve the best results

For some of us, acne is an ongoing daily struggle, but we are far from alone in this struggle, and we are not alone on the quest to find the solution to help, for the ultimate product, or advice. I found the Sk:n article page a helpful and worthwhile starting point for anyone considering an alternative advance treatment option, which is here.
