What is Acne?<\/span>
<\/b><\/h2>\n

Acne is a common dermatological condition that primarily affects the face,<\/strong> but may also occur on the neck, chest, and back.<\/strong> It develops when hair follicles become obstructed by excess oil (sebum), dead skin cells, and bacteria, leading to inflammation and the formation of various types of lesions.<\/p>\n

Hormonal fluctuations are one of the most significant contributing factors to acne development. However, other influences such as genetics, increased sebum production, bacterial activity, and skin inflammation can also play a role.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span>\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Early assessment and management are important in reducing the severity of acne and minimising the risk of permanent scarring and long-term skin damage.<\/p>\n

At King Street Aesthetics, we provide a comprehensive approach to acne management. Our experienced medical practitioners assess the underlying causes of your condition and develop a tailored treatment plan aimed at improving active acne, restoring skin health, and addressing any existing acne scarring.<\/p>\n

Types of Acne Lesions<\/h3>\n

Different forms of acne lesions may indicate the severity and underlying causes of breakouts. Common presentations include:<\/p>\n

   \/\/<\/strong><\/span> <\/strong>Blackheads (Open Comedones) –<\/strong> Blocked pores that appear dark due to the oxidation of sebum when exposed to air.
   \/\/<\/strong><\/span>   Whiteheads (Closed Comedones)<\/strong> – Pores that are blocked and closed beneath the surface of the skin, appearing as small white or flesh-coloured bumps.
\/\/<\/span>   Papules<\/strong> – Small, inflamed red or pink lesions that may be tender to the touch.
\/\/<\/span>   Pustules – <\/strong>Inflamed lesions containing pus, often associated with infection and an increased risk of scarring.
\/\/<\/span>   Nodules<\/strong> – Larger, firm, and often painful lesions that develop deep within the skin and may damage surrounding tissue and collagen.
\/\/<\/span>   Cysts –<\/strong> (painful, pus-filled inflamed lumps under the surface that can leave scaring)<\/p>\n

What is Scarring?<\/span>
<\/b><\/h2>\n

Scarring refers to the visible marks or changes in skin texture that can remain after the skin has healed from injury, inflammation, or infection. When the deeper layers of the skin are damaged, the body produces collagen as part of the natural healing process. This repair process can sometimes result in permanent changes to the appearance and texture of the skin.<\/p>\n

Scars can develop for a variety of reasons, including inflammatory skin conditions such as acne, trauma to the skin, infection, burns, surgical procedures, or repeated irritation to the same area. The appearance of a scar can vary depending on the severity of the original injury, the depth of skin damage, and individual healing responses.<\/p>\n

Scarring may present in different forms, including depressions in the skin, raised or thickened areas, or changes in skin pigmentation. In some cases, scars may initially appear red, purple, or darker than the surrounding skin before gradually fading over time.<\/p>\n
