We are very pleased to announce our partner clinic, Temple Clinic in Aberdeen has been accredited by ARAUK (Acne and Rosacea Association UK), making them a designated centre of excellence for acne and rosacea. Temple Clinic has a dedicated Problem Skin clinic ran by GP, Dr Sam Robson which specialises in treating acne.

Oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane) has been found to be a very successful drug for helping to resolve acne. However, there have been concerns raised over its safety record having had 10 suicides linked to its use in the past year. Here's 2 points to consider before committing to your acne treatment.

You cleanse, hydrate, eat well, spend your hard-earned salary on lotions and potions. You even got yourself a supersonic gadget to make extra sure you’ve scrubbed that face real clean before bed! Yet, you wake up in the morning and, to your horror, you see another bulging red bump peeking at you in the reflection.

How to help your skin survive the festive period? Here we are, a stone's throw away from Christmas - that's come around quickly! Back into warm hats and scarves it is, and it's time to prep your skin for the spot-inducing, dark and frosty winter holiday.

A fabulous and very honest update from Freyja. ‘Yes I still get the odd break out and yes it makes me feel self conscious and miserable but compared to 3 years ago this is nothing!'

"Acne did have an impact on my social life, as even with the best spot coverage makeup on, my spots were still easily visible and so it’s not like I could even rely on makeup to make me feel better. This resulted in me refusing to leave the house to go out for meals, to have catch ups with my friends and even to see the ones I love..."

I am excited to be writing a review about the Lustre Pure Light Pro. I’m 22 and I have been waging a private war against acne since I was 14. I don’t like to admit it often, but acne has had an unpleasant impact on my self-esteem and social life. I do get paranoid that people are looking at my face.
