Understanding Your Acne
Acne assessment and treatment planning in London
Active acne and acne scarring are related but different concerns. The first step is to understand the current breakout pattern, contributing factors, previous treatment and whether marks or established scars also need a separate plan.
Request an Acne Consultation
Review previous treatment
Bring details of prescribed, over-the-counter and clinic treatments you have tried, including what helped, what irritated the skin and how long each option was used.
Plan suitable next steps
A treatment plan is discussed after assessment and may combine home care, clinician-led treatment and follow-up according to your skin and clinical suitability.
Separate active acne from scarring
Active breakouts, post-acne marks and established acne scars may require different approaches. Scar treatment is considered separately once active acne is appropriately managed.
Treatment suitability, expected appointments, downtime and cost depend on clinical assessment. A free online Nurse Consultant conversation is an initial enquiry, not a free dermatologist examination or a guaranteed diagnosis.

Wider Clinic Treatment Options
These are wider Harley Street Medics services, not a treatment plan for every concern on this page. Assessment determines which approach is suitable; treatment, follow-up and recovery vary with the condition and your skin.

Warts / Verruca Removal
Wart and verruca options include Nd:YAG and surgical CO2 laser where suitable. Your assessment considers the lesion, treatment options, recovery and the possibility of recurrence or scarring.
Cyst Removal
Cyst assessment considers the size, location and symptoms before removal options are discussed. The clinician explains the procedure, recovery, scarring and recurrence risks.
Moles / Skin Tags Removal
We assess moles, skin tags and seborrhoeic keratoses before discussing surgical or laser options where appropriate. Suitability and possible scarring are explained before treatment.
Laser Nail Fungus
Our nail-fungus service includes dual-laser treatment options. Assessment, suitability, the treatment plan and the time needed for nail regrowth are discussed individually.
Pigmentation Treatment
Discuss melasma, hyperpigmentation, dark spots or uneven skin tone with our team. Assessment helps establish the cause and whether the clinic’s pigmentation 3R programme or another approach is suitable.

Your questions, explained
Acne consultation questions
Are active acne and acne scars the same concern?
No. Current breakouts, post-acne marks and established scars may need different approaches. Your assessment considers each concern separately rather than assuming that a scar treatment is appropriate for active acne.
What should I prepare before an acne consultation?
Note how long the breakouts have been present, where they occur, previous prescribed or over-the-counter treatments and any irritation or response. This information helps guide the clinical discussion.
What does the free online conversation cover?
The Nurse Consultant can discuss your enquiry and explain next steps. This is not a free dermatologist examination or a guaranteed diagnosis. Any subsequent assessment or treatment charges are explained separately.
