Clear, Smooth Skin with Expert Acne and Acne Scar Treatments at Origin Clinic

Acne is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages, often leading to frustration and a loss of confidence. While acne itself can be challenging to manage, the scars it leaves behind can be even more distressing. At Origin Clinic, we offer comprehensive treatments for both active acne and acne scars, helping you achieve clear, healthy skin and restore your confidence.

Understanding Acne and Acne Scars

Acne occurs when oil glands present in the hair follicle produce excess oil, which combines with dead skin cells and bacteria, clogging the follicle and leading to inflammation and breakouts. Acne can manifest as blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, cysts, or nodules. While acne is most common during adolescence, it can persist into adulthood or develop later in life due to factors like hormonal changes, stress, diet, and skincare habits.

Acne scars are the result of severe or untreated acne, which can damage the skin's deeper layers. These scars can take various forms, including:

Acne and Acne Scar Treatment Options at Origin Clinic

At Origin Clinic, we offer a wide range of treatments designed to address both active acne and the scars it leaves behind. Our dermatologists assess your skin condition and create a personalized treatment plan that targets your specific needs, using the latest technologies and techniques to deliver effective results.

Topical and Oral Medications

What They Are

Medications are often the first line of defense in treating active acne. Topical treatments include retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, and antibiotics, which help reduce inflammation, unclog pores, and kill bacteria. Oral medications, such as antibiotics, hormonal treatments, and isotretinoin, are used for more severe or persistent acne.

How They Work

Topical treatments are applied directly to the affected areas, helping to clear existing acne and prevent new breakouts. Oral medications work from within the body to regulate oil production, reduce inflammation, and fight bacterial infections.

Results

Consistent use of prescribed medications can significantly reduce the frequency and severity of acne breakouts. Our dermatologists will monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

Chemical Peels

What They Are

Chemical peels involve applying a solution to the skin that exfoliates the top layers, removing dead skin cells and promoting new skin growth. This treatment is effective for both active acne and acne scars.

How They Work

Depending on the severity of your acne or scars, our dermatologists may recommend a superficial, medium, or deep chemical peel. The peel solution is applied to the skin, causing it to exfoliate and eventually peel off. This process reveals smoother, clearer skin beneath.

Results

Chemical peels can reduce the appearance of acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and active acne, leading to a more even skin tone and texture. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results.

Laser and Light Therapy

What It Is

Laser and light therapy are non-invasive treatments that target the underlying causes of acne and acne scars, promoting clearer skin with minimal downtime.

How It Works

Different types of lasers and light-based devices are used to treat acne and scars. Blue light therapy targets acne-causing bacteria, while fractional lasers stimulate collagen production to reduce the appearance of scars. Laser resurfacing can also be used to remove the outer layers of scarred skin, revealing smoother skin underneath.

Results

Laser and light therapies can effectively reduce both active acne and the appearance of scars, resulting in clearer, more radiant skin. Multiple sessions may be necessary, depending on the severity of the condition.

Microneedling with PRP

What It Is

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment that uses fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin. PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is often combined with microneedling to enhance the healing process and promote collagen production.

How It Works

The microneedling device is passed over the skin, creating controlled micro-injuries that trigger the body’s natural healing response. When combined with PRP, which is derived from the patient’s blood, the treatment accelerates collagen production and skin regeneration. This is particularly effective for treating acne scars.

Results

Microneedling with PRP can improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of scars, and promote a more youthful, radiant complexion. Several sessions may be needed to achieve the desired results.

Rosacea

Description

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that primarily affects the face, causing redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes small, red, pus-filled bumps. It often appears on the cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead, and can worsen over time if left untreated. Rosacea is more common in fair-skinned individuals and typically develops in adults over the age of 30.

Symptoms

Common symptoms include persistent facial redness, flushing, and the appearance of small blood vessels (telangiectasia). Some individuals may also experience acne-like breakouts, burning or stinging sensations, dry or irritated eyes, and thickened skin, particularly on the nose (rhinophyma).

Treatments

Topical Medications: Anti-inflammatory or antibiotic creams and gels can help reduce redness and pustules.
Oral Medications: Antibiotics such as doxycycline may be prescribed for moderate to severe cases.
Laser Therapy: Vascular lasers or IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments help reduce redness and visible blood vessels.
Skin Care Guidance: We provide customized skincare routines and recommend gentle, non-irritating products tailored to sensitive skin.

Dermal Fillers

What They Are

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments used to fill in depressed acne scars, creating a smoother, more even skin surface.

How they work

The filler is injected into the scarred area, lifting the skin to the level of the surrounding tissue. This treatment is particularly effective for rolling or boxcar scars.

Results

Dermal fillers provide immediate improvement in the appearance of acne scars, with results that can last several months to over a year. Touch-up treatments may be required to maintain results.

Subcision

What It Is

Subcision is a minor surgical procedure used to treat deep, depressed acne scars by releasing the fibrous bands that tether the scar to the underlying tissue.

How It Works

A small needle is inserted under the skin to break up the fibrous bands, allowing the scar to lift and smooth out. This treatment is often combined with other therapies, such as fillers or laser treatments, for enhanced results.

Results

Subcision can significantly improve the appearance of deep acne scars, leading to smoother skin and a more even complexion. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results.

CO2 Laser

Description

CO2 Laser is an advanced skin resurfacing treatment that uses a carbon dioxide laser to remove damaged skin layers with precision. It stimulates collagen production and promotes new skin growth, improving overall texture and tone.

Symptoms Treated

CO2 laser is commonly used to treat wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, sun damage, uneven skin tone, and skin laxity. It is also effective for removing warts, moles, and other benign skin growths.

Treatment

The procedure involves directing laser beams at the targeted area, which vaporizes damaged skin cells. A topical anesthetic is applied before treatment. Post-procedure, mild redness and peeling may occur. Results become noticeable as the skin heals and regenerates over the following weeks.

Medifacial

Description

Medifacial is a medical-grade facial treatment designed to address specific skin concerns using advanced dermatological tools and ingredients. Unlike regular facials, medifacials are customized and performed under clinical supervision.

Symptoms Treated

Medifacials help manage acne, pigmentation, dullness, dryness, early signs of aging, and sensitive skin. They are ideal for improving skin clarity, hydration, and radiance.

Treatment

The procedure may include cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, infusion of serums, masks, and LED therapy, depending on the skin type and condition. Medifacials are non-invasive and provide immediate glow with zero downtime, making them suitable for routine skin maintenance.
