Restore your skin's natural balance with our doctor-led acne solutions
Acne Treatment
Living with acne can affect both your appearance and confidence. At The Old Rectory Clinic, we offer medically supervised acne treatments that target the root causes of breakouts, helping you achieve clearer, healthier skin. Our approach combines clinical excellence with compassionate care, delivering results that go beyond surface-level improvements.
Our Acne Treatment Services
Understanding that every skin condition is unique, we provide a comprehensive range of medical-grade acne solutions tailored to your individual needs. Our treatments combine cutting-edge technology with proven dermatological techniques to address acne at every stage. We utilise advanced modalities, including LED light therapy through our Genesis Prime system, which targets inflammation and bacteria without invasive procedures. For deeper concerns, our precision microneedling with the imedpen® x device promotes cellular renewal whilst delivering therapeutic ingredients directly into the skin.
Prescription-strength topical treatments, antibiotics, medical-grade chemical peels, and personalised skincare protocols complete our holistic approach. Each treatment plan is developed following a thorough medical assessment, ensuring we address not just the visible symptoms but the underlying triggers contributing to your breakouts. Our integrated methodology means you receive coordinated care that adapts as your skin improves, maximising long-term results.
Your Treatment Journey
Your journey towards refreshed, revitalised skin follows a carefully structured pathway designed for optimal results.
Initial Consultation and Assessment
Your journey begins with a thorough medical consultation where our doctor examines your skin condition and medical history. We identify contributing factors, assess severity, and discuss your specific concerns to create a bespoke treatment strategy.
Customised Treatment Protocol
Based on your unique needs, we develop a tailored plan that may incorporate advanced technologies such as microneedling with the imedpen® x system, or prescription-strength topical solutions or antibiotic therapy. Each modality is selected for its proven efficacy in targeting acne at different stages. Before and after photography will be stored with your medical records for completeness.
Treatment Application
During your session, we apply the chosen treatments with meticulous attention to technique and comfort. For advanced procedures like microneedling, we ensure optimal penetration of therapeutic ingredients whilst maintaining sterile conditions throughout.
Aftercare and Ongoing Support
Following treatment, we provide detailed homecare instructions tailored to your skin's needs. Regular follow-up appointments allow us to monitor progress, adjust protocols as needed, and ensure you're achieving the clearest possible results with minimal disruption to your daily life.
Who Would Benefit from This Treatment?
This treatment pathway is ideal for individuals struggling with persistent breakouts, inflammatory acne, or scarring that affects their quality of life.

Those seeking professional guidance from qualified practitioners rather than trial-and-error approaches will find value in our evidence-based methodology. Clients who prioritise medical supervision and want to understand the underlying causes of their skin condition are particularly well-suited to our comprehensive treatment plans.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long before I see improvements in my acne?
Results vary depending on acne severity and treatment type. Many clients notice reduced inflammation within 2-3 weeks, with more significant clearing visible after 6-8 weeks of consistent treatment. Our medical team will provide realistic timelines during your consultation based on your specific condition.
Are the treatments painful?
Most acne treatments involve minimal discomfort. Advanced procedures like microneedling may cause temporary sensation, but we use topical numbing agents to maximise comfort if necessary.
Can acne treatments help with scarring as well?
Absolutely. Our microneedling protocols using the imedpen® x device are particularly effective for improving acne scarring by stimulating collagen production. We often combine treatments to address both active breakouts and textural concerns simultaneously.
What should I avoid after treatment?
Post-treatment care is crucial for optimal results. Avoid direct sun exposure, harsh skincare products, and touching treated areas for 24-48 hours. We provide comprehensive aftercare instructions specific to your treatment, including recommended products and lifestyle adjustments to support healing.
