Pimples / Acne

Acne is caused by clogged pores and inflammation of the sebaceous glands (oil glands of skin), which causes the skin to produce excessive amounts of oil. The skin's response to this excess oil is to plug up the pore and form blackheads & whiteheads. 

Treatment of Acne

Medical treatments for acne include topical medications, hormonal therapies, antibiotics, chemical peels, laser / medical facials etc. Our cosmetic skin & hair experts focus specially on long term relief from these tiny irritating skin bumps, with the help of most advanced cosmetic procedures.

• Topical medications are the most common way to treat acne. Topical medications work by either drying out the oil or preventing it from clogging the pore. The most common topical medications include benzoyl peroxide, retinoids, sulfur, salicylic acid, and antibiotics. 

• Hormonal therapy is also a common treatment for acne. Hormonal therapy is designed to control and regulate hormones that can lead to acne. Hormonal therapy includes birth control pills, spironolactone, and the contraceptive pill. 

• Antibiotics are used to treat acne because they help prevent or eliminate bacteria that can trigger inflammation. These include clindamycin, azithromycin etc.

• Chemical Peel  is now more commonly and frequently used treatment modality these days. There are range of different chemical peels from basic peels like salicylic acid peel to advanced black peel. We at Vibra Clinics provide advanced chemical peeling treatment for acne or pimples. 

• Medical facials / Laser Facials are newer and more effective way to treat your acne. Carbon laser facial is one such treatment that help clean clogged pores and reduce further eruption of zits or pimples.
