Acne Treatment

Acne Treatments at DrBK – for all types of acne

Acne can affect anyone at any stage of life, with varying severity and different areas of the body being impacted.

Although often linked to puberty, many people continue to experience acne well into adulthood. The most commonly treated areas include the face, neck, and back.

At DrBK Clinic, we offer advanced acne treatments designed to improve skin clarity and manage breakouts long-term. Our goal is to not only reduce active acne but also to minimise scarring and promote healthier, clearer skin.

Our Range of Acne Treatments

Depending on your specific circumstances, our Skin & Laser Technician will discuss the various options of treatment available to you, and what will be best for your specific circumstances. Once you have decided on the best treatment option, a bespoke treatment package will be created for the treatment and management of your acne.

Your acne treatment plan may involve one or a combination of the following treatments:
