Acne Treatment

Undergo a Personalised Treatment Plan

Depending on the severity of acne and type of lesions present, the following oral and topical medications may be prescribed, often in combination for better outcomes:

  • For Mild Acne - to unclog pores, or to kill bacteria associated with acne:

    Anti-inflammatory, anti-comedonal skincare products such as suitable toners and moisturisers

  • For Moderate to Severe Acne – anti-inflammatory effect, regulation of hormonal levels to decrease oil production and reduce severity of acne:

    Oral antibiotics, prescription-only creams such as topical retinoids, chemical peels, oral retinoids, or hormonal treatment in combination with contraceptive pills.

Dr Wong will advise on the best course of treatment for you based on a detailed assessment of your acne condition.

Treat Acne Scars Early

Acne scar treatment is best started only after the acne has been brought under control, with no new outbreaks.

Many laser treatments and minor skin procedures are available for sunken or raised scars, depending on the subtype. These include:

  • Subcision
  • Chemical peels
  • Filler injections
  • Non-ablative, collagen-stimulating lasers
  • CO2 fractional ablative resurfacing laser
  • eMatrix sublative resurfacing
  • Scar revision for deep scars
  • VBeam laser for red or keloid scars
  • Injections for keloid scars

Sublative or fractional laser surfacing are the preferred option for most, due to good outcomes, low risk, and minimal or no downtime. A combination approach is useful as there are often different types of scars in an individual.

Acne and its scars can result in a loss of confidence for many people. Seek dermatological attention early for a faster and more effective treatment outcome.

“No two patients are alike —it takes a dermatologist experienced in acne treatment to customise an effective treatment plan for you.”
