We know what it is like to have acne. It’s painful. It crushes your confidence. It can be hard to find a treatment that works long-term. And it is one of the reasons we founded this clinic. Out of the frustration that few places provided the medical and the cosmetic support under one roof, we created one.
What acne treatment works:
Depending on the type and the severity of your acne, we can help with a combination of treatments that we have been found to be the most effective.
Evaluating your at home skincare routine. If you have suffered with acne for a while, it is likely that you have googled and researched (and spent a fortune on) multiple products that give wonder claims. This is great if you land on one that works. But, everyone’s skin is different and it is far more effective if an expert (or a dermatologist) looks at your skin to identify the key cause – and then recommends what will actually work for you. And stick with it. Consistency with the right products is everything.
Identifying if there is a medical need. Often a prescription is required to calm down your acne and bring you some peace. Again, the prescription depends on your acne, but this can be antibiotics, topical creams, and more heavy hitting acne medications that need close monitoring.
Putting in place a treatment plan. The right clinical facials show brilliant results for acne. But don’t be fooled by spa-like treatments. You’ll need a combination of peels, anti-inflammatory treatments like LED, and moisturising (even if you feel like your skin wouldn’t like a moisturiser).
Continue with a maintenance plan. This will be skincare identified in point one, plus the occasional facial/treatment to keep everything under control long-term.
Scar management. If you have scars from the acne, this can feel even more unfair than the acne in the first place. Fortunately, there are effective FDA-approved treatments that can get rid of them, whilst improving your overall skin texture. Win win.
Don’t be left wondering if your acne can be sorted – whether you feel it is too late, too much, too little – if it is affecting your day-to-day life it is worth getting sorted. We don’t judge, we’re super-approachable, and we can always help, regardless of your starting point.

Honestly the BEST clinic! Shannon has been so amazing and I feel so comfortable with her and the chats are great! She also wants to see the best results with you! I’ve been for 3 BBL sessions and have seen amazing results and lighter freckles 🤩 It’s so worth it and got plenty of compliments on my skin!

Have had two BBL sessions and one facial here and I think this clinic is brilliant. Genuinely very knowledgeable, friendly, unpretentious, results driven skincare. One of the best (of many!!) places I’ve been to for skin. Thank you!

Today, I had my first visit to Dr. Shannon at No. 23 Skin for acne treatment and was thoroughly impressed. This was my first time seeking professional help for my skin, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The clinic was very clean, modern, and comfortable. The staff was friendly and professional, making me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. I highly recommend No. 23 Skin to anyone struggling with acne or other skin concerns. The expertise and caring approach of Dr. Shannon and the team made a great first impression. I’m looking forward to seeing positive results and can’t wait for my next appointment. Thanks so much.

Very easy and informative booking process, super helpful reception and really great medical professional (who also put up very patiently and empathetically with the fact I was a slightly anxious client!)

Went here for a skin tag removal and it was handled efficiently yet caringly and at a reasonable price. Would go there again. Recommended.

I have been going on and off to the clinic for over a year, and I travel over one hour as Shannon is the only person I trust with my skin and this is the only place that delivered very quickly amazing results. The whole team goes above and beyond to help you achieving your results and I can’t wait to go back for my next treatment, they gave me my confidence back and highly recommend.
