Acne Treatment Singapore

Acne or pimple, marks, and acne scars are the skin concerns of many in Singapore. It is not just a skin condition or a phase in life that we go through growing up.

Acne outbreaks can cause serious cosmetic changes on the facial skin and have a strong psychological impact on patients’ self esteem. Acne is associated with an increased risk of depression, anxiety and suicidal tendencies for some patients.

Therefore there is tremendous value in the acne treatment and acne scar treatment. Acne treatment is one of the most common treatments cited in the Singapore National Skin Centre.

WHAT IS ACNE?

Acne is actually an infection of our sebaceous glands (oil-producing glands) in the skin. They are characterised as painful red pimples or bumps that can occur either at the facial skin (the cheeks, forehead, temples, chin) or other parts of the body skin like the upper back, shoulders, legs or chest. Acne leads to the destruction of skin cells and causes unsightly skin pigmentation (red marks and brown marks) and acne scarring.

WHAT CAUSES ACNE?

Most of us will have acne on our skin at one stage of our lives. This is how it happens:

Excess oil production in sebaceous glands
Blockage by dead skin cells of the pores of sebaceous glands
The buildup of bacteria (P. Acnes) in the oil glands leads to infection, redness, swelling and pus(pimple).

Certain factors will aggravate acne condition:

Hormonal changes occur in our teenage or pregnancy that causes hypersecretion of sebaceous glands which causes and aggravates acne.
Typically family members are more prone to having acne
Certain medications like steroids can temporarily resolve acne. However, the acne may rebound when the medication is stopped
Family History
Stress or lack of sleep can lead to more acne formation
Facial mask or MASKNE

During the times of COVID-19 in Singapore, wearing a facial mask is a practice that everyone in the world adopts to protect themselves. However, due to the long term wearing of masks, there might be an over-activity of sebaceous glands and blockage of glands. As a result, maskne may form.

TYPES OF ACNE

Non-inflammatory acne

Non-inflammatory acne represents the beginning stages of acne where active inflammation or bacteria infection of the acne gland has not taken place.

  • Blackheads or open comedones are formed when there is excessive sebum production and the gland gets swollen (forming a bump). The pores are still open, although the sebum at the entrance of the pores gets oxidised and turns black (see diagram above). Blackheads can be easily treated with facial extraction.
  • Whiteheads OR closed comedones are formed when the pore entrance is blocked by dead skin it becomes a whitehead or closed comedones. This appears as small raised bumps. Comedones can turn potentially turn into acne.

Inflammatory acne

  • Papules: The buildup of bacteria leads to infection and acne inflammation of the sebaceous glands and small red raised bumps are formed known as papules or pimples.
  • Pustules: Inflammation of the glands leads to the destruction of skin cells and pus starts to accumulate resulting in the formation of papules.
  • Nodules: As the papules grow and the pus accumulates, it becomes nodules.
  • Cysts: As the nodules grow bigger, they become large pus-filled lumps known as cysts (or boils). The bigger the acne site the more extensive the damage and hence a greater degree of scaring.

OZHEAN ZOEY’S PORELESS PROGRAM

Agnes Treatment (Permanent Removal of Acne)

Acne is a treatable skin condition that can be controlled by medical or laser treatment. The limitations of these treatments in Singapore are that the acne may recur again in the future and therefore do not pose as a permanent solution for acne. The Agnes acne treatment specifically targets the oil glands at the hair follicles. It delivers safely radiofrequency energy to the acne-prone hair follicles without causing any damage to the skin. As a result of this RF energy, the glands at the hair follicles is shut down permanently. Therefore acne will no longer recur at the treated areas. Find out more about Ozhean Zoey’s Agnes acne removal in the services section.

LDM

LDM is a high-frequency ultrasound treatment that is painless and soothing to the skin. Not only does it restores skin health, but it also improves recovery from laser procedures significantly.  Its anti-inflammatory effects help to treat and control acne and are a good complement to Agnes treatment.

Triamcinolone Injection 

Anti-inflammation injection to shrink acne fast, suitable for nodular acne. However, it needs to be done by a trained doctor to prevent complications.

Mulgwang Laser

Mulgwang Laser is a unique treatment option designed to give you a glowing, hydrated complexion that embodies the essence of 'mulgwang' (물광)—a Korean concept that translates to 'water glow'. This term is often associated with a vibrant, well-rested appearance characterised by a soft, natural radiance.

  • Yellow Laser

    Yellow Laser treats the superficial layers of the skin. It reduces redness, soothes rosacea, clears fine blood vessels, targets acne, and minimises surface-level pigmentation. By addressing these common skin issues, Yellow Laser helps enhance the skin’s natural brightness and even out the complexion.

  • Long Pulse Laser

    The Long Pulse Laser  penetrates deeper into the skin. It primarily aims to stimulate collagen production, tighten the skin, and reduce deeper pigmentation. This deeper focus not only revitalises the skin’s structure and firmness but also complements the Yellow Laser’s surface treatments.

OZHEAN ZOEY’S SKIN FIT PROGRAM

Just like our fingerprints, each person’s skin is unique and different. This is why there is no fixed treatment formula for everyone.

Each skin is different in thickness. It has also a varying amount of melanin, water and haemoglobin (the common components of the skin that absorb laser energy).

“Un-customised” laser or skincare program that is insensitive to the skin type will bring about a high risk of under-treatment or over-treatment. Under-treatment leaves unsatisfactory results while over-treatment causes unnecessary complications.

SKIN FIT program by Ozhean is a trademarked program in Singapore that customises skincare and treatment care for our customers to the smallest detail. This is why Ozhean has enjoyed good success with their patients all these years.
