Acne can be a painful and debilitating condition, both physically and emotionally. It can often destroy our self-confidence, particularly in those who have battled with stubborn acne over a long period of time, or for those with sudden-onset adult acne who have never before experienced problematic skin in their lives.
What many people don’t realise is that laser treatments can be used very effectively to combat active acne. Wonderfully versatile, not only do our laser treatments provide excellent results when it comes to anti-ageing, pigmentation and skin rejuvenation, but the heat generated by the treatment destroys acne-causing bacteria, as well as helping to facilitate our skin’s natural healing process to help reduce the chances of post-acne scarring.
What to expect
Which Acne Treatment is Right for You?
At The Skin Lab, we offer two powerful, non-invasive acne treatments—Forever Clear BBL and Laser Genesis—to help clients of all ages achieve clearer, healthier skin. While both treatments target acne, they work in different ways and can be combined for optimal results.
Forever Clear BBL – Eliminating Acne at the Source
Forever Clear BBL uses a combination of blue, yellow, and infrared light to effectively treat active acne:
🔹 Blue light eliminates acne-causing bacteria (P. acnes)
🔹 Yellow light reduces inflammation and redness
🔹 Infrared light promotes healing and collagen production
This treatment is effective for teen and adult acne, requires little to no downtime, and most patients see noticeable improvements after 4 to 6 sessions, followed by quarterly maintenance. Teens as young as 16 can receive treatment with parental consent.
Laser Genesis – Repairing & Strengthening the Skin
Laser Genesis uses gentle micro-pulses of laser energy to:
✔ Reduce post-acne redness and scarring
✔ Stimulate collagen and elastin production for smoother skin
✔ Improve overall skin tone and texture
✔ Support long-term skin health and resilience
This treatment is perfect for minimising acne scars, refining skin texture, and reducing residual redness, with zero downtime.
How many treatments do I need?
A course of treatments is generally required to see a substantial reduction in acne. Plans will vary from patient to patient but generally, 3-5 sessions, performed every 4 weeks is required to see optimal results.
I’m booked in for a treatment! Do I need to do anything beforehand?
Great! We look forward to welcoming you to The Skin Lab. Prior to your treatment, we ask that you avoid excessive sun exposure. Please note that some skin types may be advised to prep the skin with topical skincare prior to laser treatment.
What happens during my treatment?
All The Skin Lab skin treatments begin with a comprehensive consultation where you’ll share your medical history, background and treatment goals. Together, we’ll formulate a treatment plan to achieve your objectives, which may include other treatments and skincare.
During your procedure, you will experience a gentle warming sensation as the laser is applied to your skin, which many people describe as relaxing and even like warm rain on the skin.
What can I expect afterwards?
Following your treatment, your skin may appear pink for a few hours post-treatment which can be easily concealed with mineral makeup.
