At Skindepth Perth, we recognise acne as a chronic disease and strive to create a personalised plan that effectively manages and prevents pimples throughout your life.

Acne can affects both teenagers and adults, rising from heightened hormonal activity which increases sebum production, leading to clogged pores and bacterial growth. This, in turn, causes inflammation, resulting in redness, lumps, and cysts.

To treat acne, we focus on reducing skin oiliness, unclogging pores, and controlling inflammation. Our approach usually involves topical treatments, such as skin products and prescription-grade retinol. In some cases, medical intervention is needed such as antibiotics, hormonal treatments, or isotretinoin may also be required. To explore these options it is best to book a Dermatology appointment with our Dermatologist Dr Alice Rudd.
