Acne/Blemishes

Acne, blemishes, and problematic skin are the result of over-production of sebum and the excessive growth of surface skin cells that can affect both woman and men from puberty onwards as hormones develop.  Whiteheads, blackheads, pimples and cysts can form on the face, chest and back. Try not to pick or squeeze the pimples as it results in more redness, swelling, inflammation and possible scarring. Acne is a condition that can cause serious damage to the self esteem of adolescents and adults as well.  Acne treatments are an ongoing process and improvement takes time.  After a  skin consultation, we can provide the best acne treatment plan possible.

The Environ range is a system based on the combination of vitamin A, Australian tea tree oil, colostrum, and salicylic acids to target problematic skin. The scientifically advanced formulations work in synergy to assist in reducing excessive sebum production and improve the appearance of skin tone and texture.  Some products in the AVST and the Intensive range may also target oily, congested, inflamed problematic skin types and help to eliminate dead skin cells.  Environ’s vision has always been to make the best skin care in the world, through a philosophy of well researched, scientific skin care.
“The misery caused by acne can be alleviated with vitamin A.”

LED  Light Therapy is a gentle heat free treatment that does not contain harmful ultraviolet wavelengths and therefore cannot damage skin tissue.  It is clinically safe for all skin types, colour and conditions and there is no downtime or risk of unwanted side effects.  The skin has the ability to absorb light and use it as a source of energy to stimulate a healing response.

Whether you are a teenager or adult and suffer from mild, moderate, or severe acne and don't want to use antibiotics, drugs and Accutane, then this is the treatment for you.  LED Light Therapy can treat the face, chest, shoulders or back. 

This treatment is much more than just Blue Light.   Depending on your condition, there are six colours from the visible light spectrum that can penetrate to different depths of the skin, each with its own therapeutic action within skin cells. 

A series of treatments can help to kill acne bacteria, inhibit the growth of new bacteria, promote healing, help with redness and more.  Maintenance treatments may be necessary to help control your acne.

Once acne is under control, we can focus on scarring.  Scarring can be treated with IPL, Laser Genesis, Advanced Facials, Micro Needling, skin care or a combination approach to get the best results.
