Not pain‑free, but absolutely manageable and each pulse lasts less than a second.
Plus, modern machines have cooling systems to keep you comfy.

🔁 How many sessions?
You’ll need several sessions because hair grows in cycles.

🌞 Can I do laser after summer?
September is actually the best time.

🧮 Is it safe for my skin type?
Modern lasers work on a wide range of skin tones.
Your patch test checks suitability and ensures everything is safe before you start.

đŸȘ’ Do I need to shave before?
Yep shaving 24 hours before helps the laser target the follicle more effectively.

😳 Is it embarrassing?
Not at all.
Clinicians do this all day, every day, legs, underarms, bikini, backs, toes
 nothing surprises us.

đŸ’· Is it worth the money?
If you’re tired of shaving, waxing, ingrowns or irritation, laser is a long‑term game‑changer.

✹ Microneedling for Acne Scarring - Once Your Acne Is Under Control ✹

When breakouts finally calm, many people want to improve the texture, dents and marks left behind. Microneedling is one of the most effective treatments for acne scarring, but it’s important to wait until active acne is under control to avoid irritation or spreading bacteria.

✹ Microneedling - rebuilding deeper layers of the skin

Microneedling uses tiny, controlled micro‑channels to trigger your skin’s natural healing response. This stimulates fresh collagen and elastin, the building blocks that help repair scarring and strengthen the skin.

How microneedling works ▶

💜Collagen stimulation: The micro‑channels signal the skin to produce new collagen, gradually filling in rolling and boxcar scars.

💜Skin thickening: Over time, the dermis becomes stronger and more resilient, improving the look of indented areas.

💜Texture smoothing: Microneedling helps refine rough patches and uneven texture left behind by previous breakouts.

💜Mark fading: It can reduce post‑inflammatory hyperpigmentation (brown marks) and post‑inflammatory erythema (red marks).

Microneedling
 stimulates collagen
 helps soften shallow rolling and boxcar acne scars.

What microneedling won’t do

💜It won’t reduce oil production

💜It won’t prevent future breakouts

💜It isn’t suitable if you still have active inflamed acne

Microneedling is not a treatment for oily skin itself
 needling through active acne can spread bacteria.

Most people need 3–6 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, with results developing gradually over several months as new collagen forms.

💛 Why timing matters

Microneedling should only begin once acne is stable. Treating scarring too early can irritate active spots and increase inflammation. When the skin is calm, microneedling can safely focus on repair, smoothing and long‑term regeneration.

🌿 Skin peels - resurfacing, brightening & clearing

Skin peels use controlled acids to gently exfoliate the top layers of the skin. This helps remove damaged cells, smooth texture and fade marks left behind by breakouts.

How skin peels work ▶

💜Deep exfoliation: Acids like salicylic, glycolic and mandelic dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells, lifting away the dull, uneven top layer.

💜Unclog pores: Salicylic acid pe*****tes into oily pores, helping reduce blackheads, whiteheads and congestion.

💜Fade pigmentation: Peels gradually lighten post‑inflammatory hyperpigmentation - the red/brown marks left after acne heals.

💜Smooth texture: Regular peels soften superficial scarring and rough patches caused by previous breakouts.

💜Boost product absorption: Removing excess dead skin allows acne‑treating ingredients to pe*****te more effectively.

Chemical peels work by applying acids
 to exfoliate the top layers of skin and help keep pores clear.

They can gradually fade post‑inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Best peel types for acne‑prone skin -

▶Salicylic acid (20–30%) - ideal for oily, congested skin

▶Mandelic acid - gentler, great for sensitive or deeper skin tones

▶Glycolic acid - brightens and improves texture

Most people benefit from a course of 4–6 peels, spaced every 2–4 weeks, with gradual improvements over several months.

Skin peels and microneedling work by remodelling the skin, but only once active acne is under control.

✹ Skin peels - resurfacing the top layers

Skin peels use controlled chemical exfoliation to lift away damaged surface cells.

They work by:

▶Removing the top layer of skin where uneven texture and pigmentation sit

▶Increasing cell turnover so fresh, smoother skin comes through

▶Softening shallow scars and post‑acne marks

▶Brightening dull, uneven areas left behind by breakouts

Think of it as a reset for the surface of the skin - ideal for pigmentation, roughness and mild textural scarring.

✹ Microneedling - rebuilding deeper layers

Microneedling uses tiny, controlled micro‑channels to trigger the skin’s natural healing response.

It works by:

▶Stimulating collagen and elastin production

▶Improving pitted or indented scarring

▶Thickening and strengthening the skin over time

▶Smoothing uneven texture from deeper cystic acne damage

This treatment focuses on the dermis, where true scarring sits helping the skin rebuild itself from within.

🌿 Why you must wait until acne is under control

Treating scarring too early can irritate active breakouts and worsen inflammation.

Once the skin is calm, these treatments can safely focus on repair, smoothing and long‑term regeneration.

✹ Skin Peels & Microneedling for Acne Scarring - Once Your Acne Is Under Control

When cystic acne finally settles, the next step many people explore is improving the texture, marks and scarring it can leave behind. Because this is a medical topic, it’s important to speak with a qualified healthcare professional before starting any treatment, especially if your skin is still healing or sensitive.

Once active breakouts are calm, two treatments can make a noticeable difference:

🌿 Skin peels - resurfacing & brightening

▶Chemical peels help refresh the surface of the skin by:

▶Softening the look of shallow scars

▶Reducing pigmentation from old breakouts

▶Smoothing uneven texture

▶Boosting cell turnover for a clearer finish

They’re available in different strengths, so a practitioner can choose the right level depending on your skin’s sensitivity and scarring depth.

✹ Microneedling - rebuilding from within

Microneedling works deeper in the skin to:

▶Stimulate collagen and elastin

▶Improve pitted or indented scarring

▶Smooth uneven texture over time

▶Support long‑term skin strength and repair

It’s especially effective for the “textured” scarring cystic acne can leave behind.

💛 Why timing matters

Treating scarring too early can irritate active acne. Once breakouts are under control, these treatments can safely focus on healing, smoothing and rebuilding the skin.

✹ Laser & Cold Plasma for Cystic Acne

Cystic acne is deep, painful and often driven by inflammation, which is why many people find that professional treatments make the biggest difference. If symptoms are severe, persistent or affecting your wellbeing, it’s important to speak with a qualified healthcare professional.

Here’s how laser and cold plasma can support the skin safely and effectively:

đŸ”„ Laser therapy - targeting deep inflammation

Laser treatments help calm cystic acne by:

▶Reducing redness and swelling

▶Targeting bacteria beneath the skin

▶Supporting collagen to minimise scarring

▶Helping break the cycle of repeated flare‑ups

Laser reaches deeper layers where cysts form, making it a strong option for stubborn, recurring breakouts.

❄ Cold plasma - gentle healing & bacteria control

Cold plasma is ideal for inflamed, sensitive or compromised skin because it:

▶Reduces acne‑causing bacteria without harsh chemicals

▶Calms inflammation and redness

▶Supports healing after breakouts

▶Helps the skin recover faster after other treatments

It’s especially helpful for clients who can’t tolerate aggressive products or who need a soothing, non‑invasive option.

🌿 Why is either laser or cold plasma helpful, in addition to at home skincare, and Dr prescribed treatments

Laser targets deeper inflammation, while cold plasma supports surface healing and bacteria control. Together, they help:

▶Shorten flare‑ups

▶Reduce pain and swelling

▶Lower the risk of scarring

▶Improve overall skin clarity

💛 A Gentle Reminder

Cystic acne isn’t caused by dirt or poor hygiene. It’s a medical skin condition that often needs professional guidance to manage safely and effectively.

✹ What Causes Cystic Acne? ✹

Cystic acne is one of the most painful and stubborn forms of acne, and it’s almost always driven by internal factors, not surface‑level “skin cleanliness.” Because this is a medical topic, it’s important to speak with a qualified healthcare professional if symptoms are severe, persistent, or affecting your wellbeing.

🔍 The Real Causes Behind Cystic Acne

▶Hormonal fluctuations - changes during cycles, puberty, pregnancy, perimenopause, or stress can increase oil production and trigger deep inflammation.

▶Excess oil (sebum) - when the skin produces too much oil, pores clog more easily.

▶Blocked pores - dead skin cells and oil trap bacteria inside the follicle, causing swelling beneath the surface.

▶Bacterial overgrowth - C. acnes bacteria thrive in clogged pores and trigger inflammation.

▶Genetics - if cystic acne runs in your family, you’re more likely to experience it.

▶Medications - steroids, lithium, and certain hormonal treatments can contribute.

▶Skin friction - tight clothing, helmets, headbands, or backpacks can irritate follicles and worsen inflammation.

💛 A Gentle Reminder

Cystic acne isn’t caused by dirt or poor hygiene. It’s a medical skin condition that often needs professional guidance to manage safely and effectively.
