What is Acne?

Acne is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition that causes spots and pimples, especially on the face, shoulders, back, neck, chest, and upper arms. Whiteheads, blackheads, pimples, cysts, and nodules are all types of acne. It commonly occurs during puberty, when the sebaceous glands activate, but it can occur at any age. It is not dangerous, but it can leave the skin scarred.

The glands produce oil and are stimulated by male hormones produced by the adrenal glands in both males and females. Most commonly, sufferers are between the ages of 12 and 24 years.

Most people who have have acne will be left with some scarring. If it is mild scarring, a course of skin peels can make a difference but more noticeable scarring can benefit greatly from micro-needling, or Dermapen treatment. Dermapen is a revolutionary technique whereby the practitioner uses a pen with multiple tiny needles to puncture the skin all over the area, to encourage the body’s natural production of collagen and stimulate new skin. It truly renews your skin!

The many ways in which micro-needling (Dermapen) can help your skin…

In the past there were not many treatments to rid yourself of dreaded acne scars, unless you were rich and famous. Now, technology in skincare has developed to far that you too can get the smooth skin you have always wished for since adolescence with Medcare’s Ultimate Acne and Acne Scarring package.

What is included?

The Dermapen treatment is popular with Medcare patients for reducing fine lines, hyper-pigmentation, blemishes and scarring. It can be used on the face, neck, chest. I can be used on the abdomen or hips for stretch marks as well! You can see many examples of how effective this treatment is on our main Dermapen page.

In acne scarring micro-needling is hugely effective and succeeds in giving back confidence to the patient, young or old, with mild or severe scarring.

Here you can also see the anti-ageing benefits of Dermapen treatment in one of Medcare’s patients, looking years younger after her 6 sessions.
