Doctors at Edenpark Medical have many years experience managing severe and difficult acne.
We are very much aware of how this problem can negatively affect people's confidence, especially during teenage years and early adulthood, and we do our utmost to help.
While most patients will respond very well to creams, antibiotics and hormonal treatments (alone or in combination), a significant number will require more specialised treatment with isotretinoin, also known as Roaccutane.
This medication has been shown to produce excellent results, however treatment requires close monitoring due to rare but potentially significant side effects.
We will be happy to explore which option best suits your skin during your initial consultation.
