Acne spots - usually nodules and cysts - can lead to acne scars if they burst and damage skin. Acne scarring can also occur if spots are picked or squeezed, so it is highly advisable to avoid doing so.

Acne Scarring Treatments at The Cosmetic Skin Clinic

Acne scarring can cause embarrassment but, although acne scar treatments are not available on the NHS, there are non-surgical treatments that can help. After acne scarring treatment, most people notice a 50-75% improvement in their appearance.

We provide a range of specialist treatments that can help reduce the appearance of acne scars and help patients regain self-confidence.

Genuine Dermaroller™ therapy, otherwise known as micro-needling or collagen induction therapy, is a first-class technology with which scarred skin can heal naturally and safely. We also offer INTRAcel™ – a skin-tightening and skin rejuvenating system that uses micro-needling and radio-frequency for great effects on acne scars.

Laser resurfacing is a proven treatment for acne scars that removes layers of skin: Clear + Brilliant® acne light laser helps provide a noticeable difference to skin tone.

Chemical skin peels enable skin to appear brighter and refreshed while cosmeceuticals (cosmetics with medicinal purposes) are a therapeutic way to manage acne scarring.

At your initial consultation, we will discuss the best treatment for your needs.

The Nefertiti Neck Lift We can work as hard as we can to look after our bodies, by maintaining a fit and healthy lifestyle. We can eat well and get plenty of beauty sleep, but there are certain things that will give away our age no matter what we do. One area is our neck, which loses collagen as we age, making the skin start to sag and look ‘crepey’.

What’s in a Kiss? It’s All About The Lips!

February is the month when we are bombarded with a plethora of ‘hearts & flowers’ themed displays at every turn. So why is it that lips play such an important role in this most-romantic of months? Arguably, the mouth is the most sensual feature on our face, generally associating it with kissing (and with eating/speaking, of course!) Interestingly, this tradition didn’t arrive on European shores until the conquests in the 1500s. According to Dr. Bryant, professor of anthropology at Texas A&M University, kissing was mainly restricted to Southeast Asia until then.
