Acne and Acne Scar Treatment near Hawthorn East

Acne is among the most prevalent skin issues that can affect people across all age groups, from adolescents to adults. It can significantly impact self-esteem and confidence, especially when left untreated, leading to scarring. At JJ Cosmetic Clinic, we offer expert acne and acne scar treatment near Hawthorn East, designed to help you get smooth, healthy-looking skin.

Understanding Acne

Acne occurs when pores get clogged by an overproduction of sebum (oil), dead skin cells, and bacteria. This combination leads to inflammation, redness, and pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, or cysts. Many factors are behind acne, such as:

Hormonal fluctuations: Androgen hormones can trigger an increase in oil production.v
Genetics: Family history usually plays a part in the development of acne.
Lifestyle: Stress, eating habits, and environmental factors can make symptoms worse.

Acne can be divided into grades depending on its severity:

Grade 1: Mild – blackheads and the occasional small pimple.

Grade 2: Moderate – blackheads, pustules, and a little inflammation.

Grade 3: Severe – widespread redness, inflammation, and large pustules or nodules.

Grade 4: Cystic acne – deep, painful cysts with lots of inflammation.

Identifying your acne grade is the first step to choosing the most effective treatment programme.

Understanding Acne Scars

If left untreated, severe acne can lead to scarring that permanently alters the texture and colour of the skin. Acne scars develop when inflammation or trauma to the deeper layers of the skin results in the body’s natural healing response producing fibrous tissue. Popping or squeezing acne can worsen scarring.

Types of Acne Scars:

Atrophic scars: Depressed scars, further divided into:

Rolling scars: Superficial, wavy indentations.
Boxcar scars: Deep, rounded depressions with well-defined edges.
Ice-pick scars: Narrow, deep pits resembling small holes.

Hypertrophic scars: Raised scars that are limited to the area of injury.
Keloid scars: Raised scars that are extended beyond the original wound.
Pigmentation problems: Although not a true scar, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation can leave red or dark marks on skin.

Acne Scarring Grading

The severity of scarring is graded by the Goodman and Baron Qualitative Scarring Grading System:

Macular Scars: Red, brown, or white, flat, discoloured marks.
Mild Scars: Atrophic or hypertrophic scars that are not easily visible at social distances (50 cm or more). Easily hidden by makeup or hair on the face.
Moderate Scars: Easily concealed with manual skin stretching, but noticeable at social ranges.
Severe Scars: Deep atrophic or hypertrophic scars that do not go away even when the skin is stretched.

I had four laser toning treatments for my melasma at another clinic, but unfortunately, it became worse. I then came to JJ Cosmetic Clinic and had one Superjection treatment two weeks ago. I’m so happy with the results already! I can see a big improvement after just one treatment, so I wanted to leave this review. Thank you, Julie

I’ve been seeing Julie for over four weeks now, and I’ve already noticed a real difference in my skin. My skin looks healthier, more radiant and has a natural glow. What I really appreciate about Julie is her personalised approach to treatment. She is very knowledgeable and always tailors each treatment based on my skin’s current condition and needs. Unlike some other clinics I’ve visited, Julie understands that healthy, glowing skin isn’t simply about Botox or quick fixes. She focuses on the health of the skin from the inside out and addresses the root of the issue. I would highly recommend Julie to anyone who wants to better understand their skin, improve its overall health, and achieve a natural, healthy glow. She genuinely takes the time to understand your skin and provide the right treatment for you.

Always lovely to see Julie. I’ve been getting LDM and Superjection for my wedding and the results have been amazing. It always makes me want to come back again for another session!!

What wonderful caring service I received Julie was recommended helped with supporting years old fillers being removed. Done with such care and then had a treatment of thermage. - result are fabulous!!!

Lynnn Lim

Julie has exceptional skills. She explained everything in great detail and clear, including what she would be doing and what results I could expect. She was extremely professional throughout the whole process. She takes the time to understand your previous treatment experiences and listens carefully to what you need. She never pushes you to do additional treatments unless she genuinely believes they would suit you. I’ve done the PRF gel and liquid both, will definitely go back for the second and third treatment in following months. Can’t wait to see the results Ps: She even waited with me until my partner arrived to pick me up after the treatment as it was really late. I really appreciate how caring and thoughtful she was. Unfortunately, Google doesn’t let me give more than 5 stars! She’s a legend! ❤️

I cannot recommend Julie enough! She has done absolute wonders for my skin, and I am completely obsessed with the results. I've been getting PRF EzGel treatments with her and the difference has been incredible, my skin looks and feels better than ever. Julie is talented, knowledgeable, and makes the whole experience so comfortable and very safe.
