Acne and blemishes
Acne is not just a matter of age. It also affects adults and can strongly affect well-being. Good skincare and well-chosen treatments help calm it and prevent scarring.
What it is
Acne and blemishes are open and closed blackheads, breakouts and inflammation, often together with enlarged pores and oiliness. They most often appear on the face, but also on the back and décolleté.
After inflammation, pigmentation and scars may remain, so it is worth reacting early and not squeezing lesions yourself.
Where it comes from
- Excess sebum production. The skin produces too much sebum, which blocks the openings of the glands.
- Hormonal disorders. That is why acne gets worse during puberty, before a period and during hormonal changes.
- Bacteria and inflammation. Blocked pores are a breeding ground for bacteria, which leads to breakouts.
- Unsuitable skincare. Overly aggressive or overly heavy cosmetics can worsen the condition of the skin.
- Stress, diet, lifestyle. They affect hormonal balance and the condition of the skin.
How to recognise it
- Blackheads and enlarged pores
- Breakouts and painful lumps
- Shiny, oily skin
- Marks and scars after breakouts
How we solve it
We start by cleansing the skin: manual cleansing, hydrogen cleansing and the cavitation peel remove blackheads and unblock pores. For inflammation and seborrhoea, laser acne treatment (Mediostar Monolith) and chemical peels help.
When scars and irregularities remain after acne, we use above all Morpheus8, as well as Dermapen and peels, which smooth the skin's structure. We always adjust the plan to the severity of the changes and what you are already using at home.

When to book a consultation
With severe, painful acne with many nodules or cysts, first consult a dermatologist. Treatments can then complement the therapy, but they do not replace it.
Frequently asked questions
The treatment can cause brief discomfort, especially with closed blackheads. We always adjust the intensity to the sensitivity of the skin.
Usually a series of treatments, and their number depends on the severity of the changes. We set the plan at the consultation.
They can clearly smooth and reduce them, but the effect depends on the type and depth of the scars. We do not promise that they will disappear completely.
