Acne (Acne Vulgaris) is a common inflammatory skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria—leading to blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, nodules, or cysts. It affects both teens and adults and varies from mild breakouts to severe cystic acne with scarring.
At Modern Aestheticss Dermatology and Laser Clinic in Dubai, we provide personalized, dermatologist-led acne treatment plans using advanced devices, medical-grade skincare, and targeted procedures for all skin types.
Several factors contribute to acne development:
Understanding the root cause is key to effective and lasting acne control.
We customize treatment based on acne type:
Blackheads and whiteheads
Papules and pustules (red bumps or pus-filled pimples)
Deep, painful breakouts that often lead to scarring
Flare-ups around the jawline, often linked to menstrual cycles or PCOS
Caused by sweat, clothing, or occlusion
Understanding acne types helps tailor the best treatment:
non‑inflammatory blackheads and whiteheads
red inflamed bumps; pustules contain pus
deep, painful lesions that heal with scarring
We offer evidence-based, combination treatments for active acne and post-acne concerns.
Your treatment starts with a detailed skin evaluation and acne grading . Our dermatologist will assess your skin type, triggers, and lifestyle factors to create a custom plan.

Acne is not just a cosmetic issue—it’s a medical condition that can cause scarring, hyperpigmentation, and emotional distress if left untreated. Over-the-counter products may offer temporary relief but won’t address the root cause.
At Modern Aestheticss Dermatology and Laser Clinic, our dermatologist:

Combination therapy: topicals, medications, medical facials (like pHformula), peels, and lasers are most effective together.
Some topicals (e.g., azelaic acid) are safe. However, medications like retinoids or isotretinoin must be avoided. We offer safe alternatives for pregnant patients.
Mild acne may improve within 3–4 weeks. Moderate to severe acne can take 3–6 months for significant improvement.
