Concerns
Acne and congestion
Breakouts do not check your age on the way in. Whether it is teenage acne, adult hormonal breakouts along the jaw, or skin that just stays congested, the pattern matters, and so does knowing when a concern belongs with a GP rather than a clinic. Marie's nursing background means you get that honesty up front.
Clinic care or GP care?
Mild to moderate congestion and breakout-prone skin often respond well to professional skin treatments and consistent home care. Persistent, painful or scarring acne deserves a GP or dermatologist conversation, sometimes alongside clinic care and sometimes before it. Telling you which is which is part of the assessment, and it costs you nothing to hear the truth.
How we approach suitable skin
Where clinic care is appropriate, plans often draw on peels chosen for breakout-prone skin, LED light therapy as calming support, and microdermabrasion for congestion, paced so your skin is supported rather than stripped. The marks old breakouts leave behind are a texture story; see skin texture and tone. Results vary from person to person.
Frequently asked
Should I stop my current acne products before visiting?
No, keep everything as it is and bring the list. What you currently use changes what your skin can safely handle in clinic, and stopping things abruptly can flare skin.
Can you treat active breakouts on the day?
It depends what your skin is doing that week; treating over the wrong kind of active breakout does more harm than good. Marie assesses on the day and adjusts, honestly.
