Acne can be a persistent and frustrating skin condition, impacting not only your skin but also your confidence. Whether you're dealing with active breakouts or acne scars, effective treatment can make a significant difference. At Zaithra, we specialize in advanced, clinically-proven solutions to treat both active acne and the scars they leave behind, restoring your skin to its smooth, clear, and radiant best.

Acne Treatment

Understanding Acne: Acne occurs when hair follicles become clogged with excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria, leading to the formation of pimples, blackheads, and cysts. It commonly affects teenagers but can also affect adults due to hormonal changes, stress, diet, or skincare products. While acne is a common skin issue, untreated or improperly treated acne can result in scarring and long-term skin damage.

Benefits of Professional Acne Treatment:

  • Effective Solutions for All Types: From hormonal acne to cystic acne, we offer personalized treatment options for every type and stage of acne.
  • Prevent Breakouts: Address the root causes of acne to prevent future breakouts, not just treat current ones.
  • Minimize Inflammation: Reduce redness and swelling with targeted therapies that calm your skin.
  • Clear, Even Skin Tone: Focus on eliminating pimples while promoting an even skin tone without harmful side effects.
  • Instant Radiance: Revives dull, tired-looking skin for an immediate glow.


Popular Acne Treatments at Zaithra:

  1. Medical Facials:
    • Salicylic Acid Peel: A gentle chemical peel that helps to reduce acne, exfoliate dead skin cells, and clear pores.
    • HydraFacial with Acne Booster: Uses hydradermabrasion to cleanse and hydrate skin, combined with salicylic acid to fight acne-causing bacteria.
  2. Laser Treatments:
    • Fractional CO2 Laser: Targets deep layers of the skin to treat active acne and scars by promoting collagen production.
    • Blue Light Therapy: Targets the bacteria that cause acne while minimizing inflammation and redness.
  3. Prescription Skincare:
    • Topical Retinoids: Help to clear pores, reduce acne lesions, and prevent future breakouts.
    • Antibiotics & Benzoyl Peroxide: Effective treatments to kill acne-causing bacteria and reduce inflammation.
  4. Acne Injections (Corticosteroid Injections):
    • Targeted Corticosteroid Injections: For inflamed cystic acne, these injections reduce swelling and pain, speeding up healing and preventing scarring.

 

Scar Treatment

Understanding Acne Scars: Acne scars are a common aftermath of severe or untreated acne. When the skin heals from deep pimples or cysts, it can result in either :

  • Atrophic Scarring (Indented Scars): Characterized by hollow or sunken scars, including ice pick, boxcar, and rolling scars.
  • Hypertrophic Scarring (Raised Scars): Thick, raised scars that occur when the skin overproduces collagen during the healing process.

While acne scars can be frustrating, modern treatments can significantly improve their appearance and texture, leading to smoother, more even skin.

Benefits of Scar Treatment:

  • Minimize the Appearance of Scars: Specialized treatments help to reduce the depth and visibility of scars.
  • Stimulate Collagen Production: Promote skin regeneration and collagen rebuilding for smoother skin.
  • Safe & Effective: Advanced, non-invasive techniques ensure minimal discomfort with little to no downtime.
  • Customized Approach: Tailored treatments based on your scar type, skin type, and severity of scarring.


Popular Scar Treatments at Zaithra:

  1. Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy):
    1. How it Works: Tiny needles create micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen production and encouraging the skin to heal and regenerate.
    2. Benefits: Effective for both atrophic scars (like ice pick and boxcar scars) and general texture improvement.
    3. Downtime: Minimal, with some redness for a few hours after the procedure.
  2. Laser Skin Resurfacing:
    1. Fractional CO2 Laser: Targets deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and remodeling the skin's surface.
    2. Erbium YAG Laser: Works by removing damaged skin layers to improve texture and reduce the visibility of scars.
    3. Benefits: Helps with both deep scars and surface irregularities, promoting smoother skin.
  3. Chemical Peels:
    1. Glycolic Acid Peels: Exfoliate the outermost layers of skin, improving texture and reducing the appearance of scars.
    2. TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid) Peel: Stronger peel for deeper scars, targeting the lower layers of skin for more significant improvements.
  4. Dermal Fillers (For Atrophic Scars):
    1. Hyaluronic Acid Fillers: Used to plump up sunken scars, making them less noticeable by filling in the indentations.
    2. Collagen Stimulators: Help rebuild collagen under the skin for a more permanent solution to deep scars.
  5. Subcision (For Deep Scarring):
    1. How it Works: A small needle is inserted beneath the skin to break up scar tissue and promote the formation of new, healthy tissue.
    2. Benefits: Particularly effective for rolling scars or deep, tethered scars that don’t respond well to other treatments.
