Acne is one of the most common skin conditions affecting teenagers and adults. Persistent pimples, painful cystic acne, blackheads, and recurring breakouts can impact both skin health and confidence.
At SkinEssence Skin & Hair Clinic, we provide medically supervised acne treatment tailored to the type and severity of acne. Our approach focuses on controlling active acne, preventing recurrence, and reducing the risk of scarring.

What Causes Acne?
Acne develops when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. In Kochi’s humid climate, excessive sweating and oil production can worsen breakouts.
Common triggers include:
Hormonal changes
Excess oil production
Stress
Diet factors
Cosmetic product reactions
Heat and humidity
Understanding the underlying cause is essential before starting treatment.
Types of Acne We Treat
Mild Acne
Whiteheads, blackheads, occasional pimples.
Moderate Acne

Each type requires a different treatment protocol.
