What is Acne?
Acne is a common condition that is more prevalent during adolescence but affects people of all ages. It occurs when hair follicles are filled with dead skin cells or oil. You may experience acne as dry or pus-filled pustules, skin pimples, nodules, black or white heads, and sometimes cysts. Acne mainly appears on the skin of your face, back, chest, and shoulders. There are various causes of acne, and if it is not treated promptly, it leaves scars that can be difficult to manage.
Types of Acne
Acne appears in several types. They include:
Hormonal Acne
Hormonal changes lead to excess oil production, which clogs the pores. It mostly occurs in adults.
Fungal Acne
It occurs when yeast builds up into the pores. It appears as swollen and itchy facial pimples.
Cystic Acne
This type of acne leaves scars that appear as deep, pus-containing pimples.
Nodular Acne
It’s the severe form, appearing as painful lumps on your skin.
Acne Causes
Various glands empty in and maintain your hair follicle health. But sometimes, when these hair follicles are clogged, they swell, and acne appears. Here is what can clog the hair follicles:
- Overproduction of sebum (oil)
- Bateria
- Fungus
- Dead skin cells
- Hormonal fluctuations
- Genetics
- Dietary habits

Acne Treatments in Bradford At MySkyn Clinic
At MySkyn Clinic, we start with a thorough consultation with Dr. Uzma Qureshi. She assesses your skin, determines your acne type, and discusses its causes. Based on this assessment, we create a customised treatment plan for you to achieve clear, blemish-free skin.
Our range of acne treatments include:
Skin Care Products
Our expert skin doctors prescribe medically-proven skin care products according to your acne type and severity. These products contain unique ingredients that treat acne and promote better skin health. Our doctor is highly experienced in treating skin and skin conditions and recognises every patient needs a bespoke skincare plan.
Prescription Medicines
As we believe in personalised acne treatment, our expert practitioners may prescribe medications like topical retinoids or oral antibiotics if needed. These medications may be used after a cosmetic procedure to ensure skin health and achieve optimal results.
Chemical Peel Treatment
Chemical peeling involves applying medical-grade chemical solutions to your face. These solutions deeply exfoliate, unclog the pores, and peel off your skin. The skin that comes underneath is fresh and clearer.
Dermalux Phototherapy Treatment
During Dermalux treatment, we use LED lights of different wavelengths. These lights penetrate your skin, boost collagen production, reduce swelling, and treat acne. Dermalux phototherapy can treat mild to moderate acne.
Laser Skin Resurfacing Treatment
Laser skin resurfacing involves delivering a concentrated beam of light to the skin. The laser profoundly penetrates the skin and kills the bacteria or fungus that causes acne. It is a painless treatment that results in healthy, pimple-free skin.

What causes acne?
Acne occurs when oil glands produce excessive oil, which combines with dead skin cells, forming a plug in the hair follicles, leading to acne.
Can stress make acne worse?
Yes, stress causes hormonal fluctuations that may worsen acne. Managing stress through meditation, exercise, and adequate sleep can help mitigate this effect.
How long does it take to see results from acne treatments?
Results after acne treatment depend on acne type and severity. However, many people notice improvement within a few weeks to a few months.
