The Skiin Approach
Why acne is kind of our thing
Acne isn't a skincare problem — it's a medical condition with several distinct types, triggers and patterns. That's why at Skiin your acne is diagnosed and managed by a doctor from day one, not handed to a treatment menu.
We have a wealth of experience managing acne effectively, combining prescription products with in-clinic treatments. The two work together: prescription skincare normalises the skin at a cellular level while in-clinic treatments accelerate clearing, calm inflammation and address scarring and pigmentation as the skin improves.
Because your doctor controls the whole picture — diagnosis, prescriptions and clinic treatments — the plan adjusts as your skin changes. Nothing is guesswork, and nothing is simply sold to you.
The Result
Clearer, calmer skin
- Fewer, less inflamed breakouts
- Reduced redness and post-acne pigmentation
- Smoother texture as scarring is treated
- A maintenance plan that keeps skin clear
Effective acne management is a process — controlled medically, treated in clinic, and maintained for the long term.
What we manage
Types of acne we treat
Comedonal acne
Blackheads and whiteheads caused by clogged pores — managed with prescription skincare, peels and targeted in-clinic treatment.
Inflammatory acne
Red papules and pustules. Calming inflammation quickly matters to limit scarring — treated with combined medical and in-clinic care.
Hormonal & adult acne
Deep, tender spots along the jaw and chin that flare cyclically. A very common presentation we manage with doctor-led protocols.
Acne scarring & pigmentation
Once breakouts are controlled, texture and dark marks are treated with LaseMD Ultra, chemical peels and microneedling.

The Journey
What to expect
Week 0
Doctor's assessment
Your doctor diagnoses your acne type and triggers, examines scarring and pigmentation, and prescribes your personalised plan.
Weeks 1–8
Control
Prescription products start normalising the skin. In-clinic treatments begin — expect some adjustment as the plan is tuned to you.
Weeks 8–12
Clearing
Breakouts reduce significantly. Inflammation settles and post-acne marks start to fade as the skin repairs.
Ongoing
Refine & maintain
Scarring and texture are treated with laser, peels and microneedling. A maintenance plan keeps skin clear for the long term.
Acne Scarring
Treating scarring & texture
