The most important facts in brief

What exactly is acne and how does it develop?

Similar to rosacea, acne is a disease of the sebaceous gland apparatus and hair follicles, in which inflammation in the pores and sebaceous glands, often triggered by the body’s own bacteria, occurs.

Above all, the formation of blackheads (comedones) is unsightly. Genetic predisposition is the main cause that can lead to acne, especially on the face, neck and upper part of the back and chest.

Influences such as

• Ultraviolet radiation
• Hormones
• Cosmetics and
• Gastrointestinal diseases.

The inflammation of the pores, which usually takes place in 3 stages, is initially limited superficially and appears as pus blisters on the surface of the skin and can progress in the last stage to a deep-seated inflammation with painful nodules under the skin.

For whom is a treatment suitable?

Treatment of acute acne is considered for a variety of reasons. Acne can be both aesthetically and functionally stressful. The constant presence of pimples, blemishes and inflammation is not only considered unsightly by those affected, but can also be psychologically very stressful, cause pain and even lead to scars in the long term. In order to avoid this scarring, early action is required. Professional treatment is particularly useful when conventional care products have no effect or the inflammation is severe.

What treatments for acne do we offer?

Acne treatment at clinic utoquai is based on an individual approach that is tailored to the specific needs of your skin. We combine state-of-the-art techniques with the dermatological expertise of our specialists to reduce inflammation and sustainably improve the appearance of the skin.

Our holistic treatment concept consists of the following approaches:

Skin analysis:

Before starting treatment, we perform a detailed skin analysis to determine the exact cause and severity of your acne. To do this, we use state-of-the-art equipment that precisely analyzes your skin structure, sebum production and inflammation foci. Based on this analysis, we create an individual treatment plan that is specifically tailored to your skin.

Cosmetic Acne Toilet:

As part of the cosmetic acne toilet, we offer our patients a manual treatment to remove blackheads. The aim is to cleanse the impurities. Depending on the degree of acne, several sessions at regular intervals are useful.

Drug therapy:

Depending on the severity of the acne, we recommend targeted medications that are intended to soothe your skin and reduce inflammation. This can be in the form of topical creams or gels that are applied directly to the affected areas. In more severe cases, systemic therapy with tablets may be necessary to regulate sebum production and fight bacteria.

Laser therapy:

Laser therapy can be used effectively for highly inflammatory acne. Laser treatment not only reduces inflammation, but also promotes healing of the skin and can specifically alleviate acne scars. The procedure is extremely gentle on the tissue.

Scar treatment:

If the acne has already left scars, we offer special procedures for scar treatment. In addition to laser therapy, other methods are also used to smooth the scar tissue and refine the complexion. In this way, we ensure that your skin is not only freed from inflammation, but also from acne scars.

Nutritional advice:

A balanced diet makes an important contribution to maintaining a good complexion. One of our services therefore also includes special nutritional advice that aims to avoid acne-promoting foods and strengthen the skin from the inside out. Together with you, our nutritionists will develop a nutrition plan that has a positive effect on your skin and that makes you feel good.

What results can you expect?

The results of acne treatment depend on various factors, such as the severity of the inflammatory skin lesions and the treatment method chosen. In most cases, the first improvements are visible after just a few weeks. In the case of deeper inflammation or scarring, several treatments may be necessary to achieve an optimal result. However, with an individually tailored treatment plan, the complexion can be significantly refined, so that your skin looks clearer and healthier. Regular care and aftercare support the long-term effect and prevent new inflammations.
