Skin & Acne Protocol
A message from Dr. Tan
I struggled with acne through most of my life and well into my early thirties. I always avoided people's eyes when I talked to them. Not because I was shy, but because I was afraid. Afraid of that moment — their eyes darting to my skin, then back to mine. If you've had acne like I did, you know exactly what I'm talking about. The silent judgement of the eyes.
I went through the whole journey myself. Friends and family recommendations, I tried them all. Then I educated myself, learned the ingredients, tried again. Went to the pharmacy, tried again. Went to doctors, tried again. Again and again and again.
Eventually, I figured out what works and why everything else didn't. That's why I created this protocol. So you don't have to go through what I did.
Why most
Acne Treatments
fail
There are different levels of acne treatment out there.
Most people without realizing it are stuck at the bottom.
The Treatment Pyramid
Klinik Dr. Tan Acne Protocol
Pharmacist-Guided
Self-Educated
Friends, TikTok,
Watson & Guardian
Prescription actives + structured titration + combination therapy
Stronger actives, better selection but
no prescription access
Right ingredients but OTC strength
with no structure
Trending products, trial and error,
no strategy
Most patients who walk through our door have spent years at Level 4 or 5.
Some briefly reached Level 2 but without guidance, the irritation made them stop.
The ingredients were right.
The protocol was missing.
The problem with strong actives and how we solve it
Prescription ingredients are powerful, but power without guidance causes irritation, purging, and dropout. Most people quit before the treatment works. Not because it failed. Because nobody guided their skin through it.
Our protocol introduces the strongest actives in the right order, at the right pace — your pace. So your skin adapts instead of reacts. In the end, you'll have a routine built around your skin, not a skin trying to survive someone else's routine.

The importance of 6-Month Acne Treatment Protocol for consistent, long-term improvement
Many treatments focus only on clearing active acne but Clear skin & Fade marks are two different goals.
To achieve both, treatment must continue beyond the first improvement. That’s why most patients require at least 6 months to complete both the Clear & Fade phases.

Frequently asked
questions
How long will it take to see results?
Most patients start noticing improvement within 4–8 weeks, but meaningful, long-term results usually require at least 6 months. Acne treatment happens in phases:
-
Month 1–3: Control active breakouts (Clear)
-
Month 4–6: Fade marks and improve skin texture (Fade)
-
Month 6 onwards: Maintain results (Maintain)
Why do I need treatment for 6 months?
Clearing pimples and fading acne marks are two different goals. Stopping treatment once pimples improve often leads to relapse. A structured 6-month protocol helps achieve more complete and lasting results.
What is included in the monthly fee?
Your monthly programme includes:
✓ Doctor consultation
✓ Prescription medication
✓ Clinic-dispensed skincare
✓ Personalised dosage adjustment
✓ WhatsApp support between visits
✓ Monthly review and product adjustment
There are no hidden charges or unnecessary upselling.
Are the medications safe?
Yes. Prescription medications are commonly used and prescribed under medical supervision. Your doctor will adjust the treatment according to your skin's response to minimise side effects.
Is this suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. The treatment protocol is adjusted according to your skin condition. Strong ingredients are introduced gradually to minimise irritation and improve tolerance.
Do I need to come every month?
Monthly reviews are recommended, especially during the first few months, so that treatment can be adjusted according to your progress. Once your acne is stable, visits may become less frequent.
What if I miss my monthly review?
If you're unable to attend your scheduled appointment, simply let us know as early as possible. We'll help you reschedule to the nearest available appointment. If an in-person visit isn't necessary, we can also arrange a WhatsApp follow-up or video consultation with your doctor to review your progress, adjust your treatment if needed, and ensure your care continues without interruption.
Can teenagers undergo this treatment?
Yes. Acne treatment is suitable for teenagers and adults. Your doctor will recommend age-appropriate medications and skincare.
What if I have already tried many products and treatments before?
Many patients who visit us have already tried multiple products, facials, and medications. The difference isn't necessarily stronger ingredients, it's having the right protocol, sequence, and ongoing guidance.
What if I need to withdraw from the programme due to medical or unavoidable reasons?
If you need to withdraw from the programme due to medical reasons or other unavoidable circumstances, you may be eligible for a refund, subject to review and approval.
Any approved refund will be prorated, meaning the refund amount will be calculated after deducting the fees for the months of the programme that have already been used. The remaining unused portion of the programme fee will be refunded.
