ACNE<br />
TREATMENT<br />
Most people experience acne in varying degrees at some point in their<br />
life. There are a number of factors that contribute to the development<br />
of acne, the most common are genetic, hormonal, environmental and<br />
dietary factors. Not all acne is the same and not all skin is the same, so there is<br />
no one treatment that will work for everyone.<br />
<strong>Cosmetic</strong> Elegance Clinic tailors treatments to suit each individual based on the<br />
type of acne, age group and lifestyle. We have a holistic approach to the treatment<br />
of acne that includes looking at diet, skin care regimen and treatment. We look<br />
at the whole person and are especially conscious of the psychological effect<br />
acne has on young lives. Our treatment plans feature the very latest in scientifi c<br />
technology including: Dermasound facial treatments, microdermabrasion, IPL<br />
light therapy, copper bromide laser treatment, medication and dietary advice.<br />
ALL ABOUT ACNE<br />
Acne typically affects areas of skin where there is an over-production of sebum<br />
(oil). Pustules and papules develop as a result of blockages in follicles caused <strong>by</strong><br />
sebum and dead skin cells. This is often compounded <strong>by</strong> bacterium, which leads<br />
to infl ammation and can result in scarring.<br />
