Acne Treatment
Acne is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages, typically caused by excess oil production, clogged hair follicles, bacteria, and inflammation. Acne can present as whiteheads, blackheads, pimples, or even cysts and nodules, depending on the severity. While acne is most common among teenagers, many adults also struggle with persistent breakouts.
Symptoms of Acne
Acne can affect anyone but is most common in teenagers and young adults due to hormonal changes. However, factors such as stress, diet, and genetics can contribute to its development at any age.
At PRP London Clinic, we provide REFORM Skincare products to help manage and treat acne. REFORM’s range of skincare solutions targets acne at its source, helping to reduce breakouts and support clear, healthy skin.

The treatment successfully managed the side effects of Roaccutane, which included dryness, irritation, and solar sensitivity. The Vitamin B5 Gel and Intensive Moisturiser from REFORM Skincare helped deeply hydrate the skin and support barrier repair, while Hyal Vitamin C + E aided in reducing acne scarring and hyperpigmentation. The use of SPF 50+ was crucial, as Roaccutane made the patient’s skin more susceptible to sun damage.
The patient saw improvements in skin hydration, reduced irritation, and prevention of further scarring and hyperpigmentation by adhering to this skincare routine.

The active ingredients in the ANTI-BLEMISH Kit were effective in maintaining unclogged pores and reducing excess sebum, contributing to the overall improvement in the patient’s acne. Since these ingredients tend to strip oils from the skin, the introduction of Vitamin B5 Gel and Everyday Moisturiser was crucial to prevent over-drying and maintain a healthy skin barrier. Hydration was important to avoid the skin overcompensating with excess oil production, which could lead to more breakouts.
The SPF 30 Mineral Sunscreen was essential for preventing hyperpigmentation and protecting the skin from sun damage, which can worsen acne marks. Its non-comedogenic formula ensured that the skin remained clear of new blockages.
Overall, this skincare routine helped manage the patient’s acne, reducing the occurrence of new breakouts while preventing scarring and hyperpigmentation.

The ANTI-BLEMISH Kit effectively helped reduce acne by keeping pores clear and controlling excess oil production. Since the active ingredients in this kit can strip oils, it was crucial to maintain proper hydration with Vitamin B5 Gel and the Everyday Moisturiser to support the skin barrier. Rehydration was essential to prevent overproduction of sebum, which could worsen acne.
The addition of Vitamin C 20% played a key role in addressing post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation by brightening the skin and reducing dark spots. The SPF 30 Mineral Sunscreen was critical for preventing further hyperpigmentation caused by sun exposure, while its non-comedogenic formula ensured it didn’t contribute to new breakouts.

The patient experienced a noticeable reduction in breakouts, and the routine helped maintain a clearer complexion. The REFORM Skincare ANTI-BLEMISH Kit played a key role by unclogging pores and reducing inflammation caused by acne-causing bacteria. However, because the active ingredients in this kit can strip oils, it was important to replenish moisture with Vitamin B5 Gel and Everyday Moisturiser to maintain a healthy skin barrier.
The SPF 30 Mineral Sunscreen was essential in preventing hyperpigmentation and acne marks while protecting the skin from harmful UV rays. The non-comedogenic formula ensured it did not clog pores or worsen acne.
