Acne is a common condition that can affect people of all races and ages. It most commonly occurs during puberty when the sebaceous glands become more active due to stimulation from the hormones produced by the adrenal glands. If left untreated, it may lead to textural changes and scarring. At CMC, we provide various laser treatments that take into account your skin type and condition.
Acne causes skin pigmentation and these areas of the skin contain especially high concentrations of melanin. The Q-Switch system is uses multiple wavelengths to treat a wide range of Epidermal, Dermal and mixed Dermal- Epidermal Pigmented Lesions.
The Healing Light is a non-invasive procedure which uses light diodes to assist with the body’s natural healing process. It comes with a series of benefits which include reducing the skin’s redness, speeding up the body’s cellular recovery, and assisting with skin rejuvenation. This soothing and therapeutic procedure allows patients to relax after receiving an acne treatment without any discomfort whilst providing no downtime at all.

Medically known as Acne Vulgaris, is a disorder of the pilosebaceous unit, which is made up of a hair follicle and sebaceous gland (oil gland).
Acne occurs when the skin’s oil glands produce too much sebum, an oily substance that moisturises the skin. The excess accumulation of sebum, along with dead skin cells, creates a plug that blocks the pore. This blockage becomes infected with bacteria, resulting in swelling and the formation of pimples, and may leave stubborn scars behind.
Ice pick: Deep, but small pits
Boxcar scars: Sharp angles and edges; can be shallow or deep, these scars appear as small craters in the skin, usually on the cheeks or temples. These are often more difficult to treat.
Rolling scar: Tend to be wide and shallow (a wavy look) caused by damage under the surface
Acne scars are permanent textural changes and indentations that may occur as a result of severe acne. If acne is left untreated, it will lead to scarring and can form as pigmentation or dark spots which are more difficult to treat in the long term. When acne occurs, large pus-filled spaces known as the cysts form, destroy the surrounding skin tissue and hinder the healing process. Once the cyst empties the area, allowing it to heal, it leaves behind a scar on the face.
The term “scarring” is not used for the temporary red and brown marks left early after acne has occurred, as these marks will almost always improve without treatment.
Pricing for acne and acne scar treatments will vary greatly depending on your skin type and condition, the severity of the acne and other related concerns, and the span of the areas to be treated. These factors will need to be assessed first in order to determine the type of procedure that will be recommended for you, as well as the number of sessions you will need for your treatment plan.
Our specialist will be able to advise you with a treatment plan and a quotation for how much the total procedure will cost when you attend a consultation at CMC.
