Active Breakouts
Different types of acne lesions may require different considerations. Your specialist will assess the pattern, severity and distribution of your breakouts.

with care.
Acne can change over time and affect more than the appearance of your skin. At ÉLAN, we begin by understanding your individual pattern before considering the most appropriate approach.

Acne is individual.
Acne can appear in many forms and at different stages of life. Breakouts may be influenced by a combination of factors, and the pattern can change over time.
Our approach focuses on understanding the nature of your acne, its impact on your skin and what you hope to achieve from treatment.
The visible concern is only part of the picture.
Recurring Acne
When breakouts continue or return, understanding the wider pattern can help inform a more considered long-term approach.
Post-Acne Marks
Marks and changes in pigmentation can remain after active acne settles and may need to be considered separately.
Acne Scarring
Changes in skin texture and scarring can be assessed once active acne is appropriately addressed.
Your Consultation
Start with the skin in front of us.
Your consultation is an opportunity to discuss how your skin has changed, what you have already tried and what concerns you most.
Your specialist may consider your skin, acne pattern, previous treatments and relevant history before discussing possible next steps.
There is no single acne treatment that is appropriate for everyone. Treatment decisions should be made with a qualified healthcare professional.
Clear thinking. Appropriate treatment. Realistic expectations.
The aim is not simply to treat what is visible today, but to create a considered plan around your individual skin.
Understand
We listen to your concerns, history and experience with acne.
Assess
We consider the characteristics and current pattern of your skin.
Plan
Where appropriate, we discuss treatment options suited to your circumstances.
Review
Your progress can be reviewed and the approach adjusted when appropriate.
Treatment Options
A plan shaped around your skin.
Depending on your individual assessment, your dermatologist may discuss different approaches to managing acne and its effects on the skin.
These may include prescription-based care, topical approaches, procedures or combinations of treatments where clinically appropriate.

Looking Beyond Breakouts
Healthy-looking skin is a process.
Acne care may involve addressing active breakouts first, followed by consideration of marks, pigmentation or textural changes where appropriate.
Realistic outcomes
Skin responds differently from person to person. Results depend on the individual, the concern being treated and the approach selected.
