There are many types of acne and classifying acne by severity is an important step in determining what is the best treatment plan for you. Acne breakouts can be mild, moderate, or severe, depending on the number of pimples and degree of redness and if or not cystic acne is present.
In a mild case of acne, there are a few pimples and blackheads, but not enough to cause scarring. More inflammation, papules (small raised area of skin with a different colour, often called a lesion), and scarring can appear in moderate acne breakouts. In severe cases, in addition to pimples, there may be cysts and abscesses (large pus formations).
At Dr Leah Clinics, we combine medical prescription skincare products with specialised clinical in-clinic treatments to effectively treat mild and moderate acne. Our treatments include the Clenziderm skincare regime, Deep exfoliation blackhead extraction facial or Obagi blue radiance peel.
