Dr Naz understands how complex acne can be — and how much it affects confidence. She treats every client with compassion and clarity, using clinically proven techniques that improve skin without causing long-term damage.
Find Out MoreWe begin with a consultation to understand your skin, triggers, routines and goals. Treatment might start with active skincare, lifestyle support or gentle in-clinic treatments like LED or light chemical peels.
You’ll be fully supported throughout — with regular reviews and realistic adjustments as your skin improves.
We’ll identify your acne type and underlying causes, and begin to build a personalised plan that addresses both inflammation and skin health.
This may include topical actives, prescription skincare, LED therapy, gentle peels, or supplements. We’ll always explain every step.
We’ll guide you on safe cleansing, product use, flare-up management and long-term skin maintenance — so you don’t feel lost between appointments.
We’ll always be honest with you rather than promise perfection, because acne is a condition to manage well rather than something with a guaranteed one-off cure. What a considered, personalised plan can realistically do is significantly reduce breakouts and inflammation, calm the skin, and improve its long-term health, which for many people is a genuine and lasting change. How much improvement is possible depends on the type and severity of your acne, which is exactly what Dr Naz assesses first.
Yes, we treat both teenagers and adults, since acne is most common in the teenage years. Plans for younger skin are adapted to be gentle and age-appropriate, taking into account skin sensitivity, lifestyle, and what’s realistic to keep up day-to-day. Treatment usually starts with the least aggressive, most protective approach rather than anything harsh, because a younger skin barrier needs looking after. For under-18s, we’ll involve a parent or guardian appropriately and keep everything clearly explained.
Not always. Many people improve well with the right combination of active skincare, in-clinic treatments, and some lifestyle adjustments, and Dr Naz will always explore those first. Where acne is more stubborn, more inflammatory, or affecting you significantly, prescription treatment may form part of the plan, and because she’s a medical doctor, she can assess whether that’s appropriate or arrange the right onward care. The aim is to use the least that will work rather than reaching for the strongest option by default.
Sometimes, yes, and it helps to know that in advance so it doesn’t take you by surprise. Certain active ingredients, particularly while your skin is adjusting to them, can cause a temporary period of purging or increased breakouts before things settle. This isn’t the same as the treatment failing, and Dr Naz will explain when it’s likely, how long it tends to last, and how to care for your skin through it. If your skin reacts in a way that isn’t expected, you’re always welcome to check in rather than pushing through uncertainty.
Yes, you don’t have to give up makeup. The main thing is choosing non-comedogenic products, meaning ones formulated not to clog pores, and we’ll happily advise on what suits acne-prone skin and what to avoid. Around certain in-clinic treatments, such as a peel, we may ask you to leave the skin bare for a short window while it settles, and we’ll tell you exactly when. Removing your makeup gently and thoroughly at the end of the day matters more than avoiding it altogether. Good skincare and the right makeup can absolutely coexist.
Reducing the risk of scarring is one of the main reasons to treat active acne properly and promptly, since inflamed, untreated breakouts are what most often lead to lasting marks. We focus on calming inflammation and protecting your skin barrier rather than anything that could make marking worse. If you already have scarring or post-acne marks, there are treatments that can genuinely improve their appearance over a course, though the first priority is always getting the active acne under control. Dr Naz will be honest about what’s realistically achievable for your particular scarring.
No, and this is an important myth to put to rest, because it causes a lot of unnecessary guilt. Acne is a complex condition driven by things like hormones, oil production, genetics, and inflammation, not by being unclean. In fact, over-washing or scrubbing the skin harshly tends to make it worse by damaging the barrier and triggering more irritation.
It varies from person to person, and honest timelines matter more than promises. Some people notice improvement within a few weeks, while for others, particularly with more stubborn or inflammatory acne, it takes a couple of months for the skin to really turn a corner. Acne treatment is usually about steady, cumulative progress rather than an overnight change, which is why a course and regular reviews are built into the plan. Dr Naz will give you a realistic idea of the timeline for your specific skin and adjust as it responds.
