The Skin & Acne Protocol is a structured, doctor-guided programme designed to help manage acne, improve skin condition and reduce the appearance of post-acne marks through a personalised treatment approach.

The programme may be suitable for individuals experiencing persistent acne, recurring breakouts, clogged pores, acne marks or skin concerns that have not improved with regular skincare products.

Instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach, the protocol combines medical assessment, personalised treatment, skincare guidance and regular reviews. Your treatment can be adjusted according to how your skin responds throughout the programme.

Your treatment progresses through different stages, with regular reviews to monitor your skin. Depending on your progress, your doctor may adjust your medication, skincare routine or treatment approach.

The programme is structured into different phases, with each phase focusing on specific treatment goals. Your doctor will guide you through each stage based on your skin's progress.

The programme includes regular follow-up reviews. The frequency of your visits will depend on your treatment plan and how your skin responds.

Even if your acne improves earlier, continuing with the recommended treatment and follow-up plan can help maintain your progress and reduce the risk of recurring breakouts.

Your progress will be reviewed during your follow-up appointments. If your skin is not responding as expected, the doctor can reassess your condition and adjust your treatment plan where appropriate.

The programme may include medical consultations, follow-up reviews, prescribed treatment and skincare recommendations depending on your individual treatment plan. The clinic can provide the latest details during your consultation.
