What it is

Acne is a multifactorial skin condition resulting from the interaction of different mechanisms, such as increased sebaceous production, obstruction of hair follicles, skin inflammation and bacterial proliferation, which may also be influenced by hormonal, genetic and environmental factors.

What it's for

Acne treatment aims to control inflammation, reduce active lesions, improve skin quality and prevent the development of scars. The approach is always personalised according to the type and severity of acne.


How it's done

Treatment is always personalised and may involve different medical and technological strategies. It may include topical and systemic treatments, chemical peels, laser technology (such as IPL or Laser Chrome), phototherapy and other procedures appropriate to each patient's clinical profile.
