Acneic Facial is a cutting-edge treatment designed to address the root cause of persistent acne: overactive sebaceous glands. This innovative therapy combines three powerful components: Sebaceous Gland Ablation (SGA) technology, followed by an exfoliation and decongestive mask to provide a comprehensive solution for acne-prone skin.
Unlike traditional acne treatments, Acneic Facial uses a precise, high-frequency current to selectively disable problematic oil glands without damaging surrounding skin. This non-drug approach offers a safe, scar-free alternative for those seeking long-term acne management, effectively neutralising problematic oil glands and promoting clearer, healthier skin.

how does an acneic facial work?
The Acneic Facial begins with a thorough skin analysis to determine the type and grade of acneic blemishes. Our dermal clinicians then use a pen-like device with a fine probe to deliver targeted, high-frequency currents (thermolysis) directly to overactive sebaceous glands. This process effectively neutralises these glands across all acne grades, preventing excess oil production that leads to acne formation.
Following the SGA treatment, a customised peel is applied to exfoliate dead skin cells, unclog pores, and promote cell turnover. The strength and type of peel are tailored to your skin's needs and acne severity.
The facial concludes with a decongestive mask, chosen based on your individual skin type and concerns, to soothe, hydrate, and further address acne-related concerns. This comprehensive approach not only treats existing acne but also helps prevent future breakouts, offering a long-term solution for clearer, healthier skin.
