Active Acne

Acne is one of the most common problems that we experience at some time in our life.  It is so common that one could argue that it is a normal occurrence in human development.  Without the correct treatment by a specialist dermatologist, it is likely to persist for some time, which will affect how you feel about yourself and your appearance.  Delay in appropriate management also complicates the risk of long-term problems such as scars and skin discoloration. 

Although acne is most commonly seen in teenagers, it can affect people of all ages and can sometimes continue into late adulthood.  Females and males of all races are affected, with scarring and pigment change most common in patients with skin of colour.
