We offer a whole range of specialist acne and acne scar treatments to help smooth away those tell-tale signs.
For reasons no one completely understands, some follicles are prone to overproducing skin cells which then block the pores. Sebum (oil) which normally drains to the surface is trapped by these cells and bacteria begins to grow. Acne forms as a result of this process.
Even after the acne has subsided, there may be scarring and pitted skin remaining, which can last long into adulthood. The great news is that we offer a whole range of specialist acne and acne scar treatments to help smooth away those tell-tale signs.

Obagi
Obagi CLENZiderm MD system is a prescription only acne treatment that contains a patented ingredient to penetrate deep into the skin and treat acne where it starts.
This highly effective treatment is carried out at home, with regular reviews at Aspire to check progress. This treatment can also be used in conjuction with the Radiance Peel and Obagi Blue Peel.
View GalleryMicrodermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a treatment using 'medical grade' crystals which are fired onto the skin using a pressurized nozzle. The crystals buff off the dead, clogged skin cells to reveal fresher, smoother skin.
The crystals are larger and more effective than those permitted for use in a beauty salon and therefore produces more effective results. To maximise the effect, we would recommend a course of 3 to 6 treatments.
Dermaroller
Recommended by Dermatologists worldwide, Dermaroller and Dermastamp treatments are hugely effective in smoothing and replumping pitted skin and reducing the effects of acne scarring.
Dermaroller therapy provides advanced micro-medical dermal needling, a procedure that tightens the skin surface and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin to create smoother, tighter, more even toned skin.
For individual acne scars, Dermastamp provides more precise dermal needling to target deeper, individual scars.
Radiance Peel
The Radiance Peel is a chemical peel in which an acid-based solution is applied to the skin to remove dead skin cells. After several minutes the solution is removed to reveal tighter, smoother, brighter looking skin. Results are instant, but a course of 4 to 6 treatments is recommended for optimum long term results.
Dermalux
Dermalux LED Phototherapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses pure light to accelerate the skin's natural repair processes.
It is clinically proven and effective anti-bacterial treatment for acne, rosacea, eczema and psoriasis.
