What treatments does BYGOLDEN offer for acne?

BYGOLDEN offers a multi-modality approach to acne treatment including acne laser, chemical peels and collagen induction therapy. The right combination is selected by your clinician at your skin consultation based on your specific skin concerns and goals.

Can laser treatment help with acne scarring?

Yes. Laser treatments can significantly improve the appearance of acne scarring by stimulating collagen remodelling in the deeper layers of the skin. Collagen induction therapy (microneedling) is also highly effective for textural scarring. A course of treatments produces the most meaningful improvement.

How many treatments will I need for acne or acne scarring?

The number of sessions depends on the severity of your acne or scarring and which modalities are used. Most clients benefit from a structured course of 3 to 6 treatments. Your clinician will advise at your skin consultation.

What is the downtime for acne treatment?

Downtime is generally minimal. Acne laser may cause mild redness that resolves within hours, chemical peels may involve some skin flaking over the following days, and collagen induction therapy involves redness for 24 to 48 hours. Your clinician will provide detailed aftercare guidance.

Does BYGOLDEN require a consultation before acne treatment?

Yes. A skin consultation is required before commencing any acne treatment program at BYGOLDEN. This allows your clinician to assess your skin, identify your acne type and design the most appropriate treatment plan.

Our approach

Clearer skin,
from the inside out.

Acne is a complex condition, and effective treatment rarely comes down to a single solution. At BYGOLDEN, we combine clinically proven treatments to clear active breakouts, prevent recurrence and improve the longer-term appearance of scarring and post-acne marks.

You don't need to know which treatment you need. At your skin consultation, your clinician assesses your skin and designs the right combination for your acne type and goals, so the only decision you have to make is to start.

What we may use

The treatments behind clearer skin

Acne laser

Works within the pore to reduce oil, calm inflammation and clear the bacteria that drive active breakouts.

Collagen induction therapy

Microneedling that rebuilds the skin's structure to soften the appearance of acne scarring and refine texture.

Chemical peels

Resurfacing peels that decongest the skin and fade post-acne pigmentation for a clearer, more even complexion.

The approach

How we treat acne & scarring

Effective treatment works on more than one level, from the drivers of active breakouts, to the marks and texture changes that remain after acne heals. Your clinician combines the right treatments to address each.

Active acne

Targeting the source

Active acne is driven by excess oil, blocked pores and bacteria. Laser works within the pore to reduce oil production and calm inflammation, while peels decongest the surface and make the skin less prone to new breakouts.

Post-acne marks

Fading discolouration

The dark or red marks left after breakouts come from excess pigment triggered by skin trauma. Peels accelerate cell turnover to lift pigmented cells and gradually restore a more even skin tone.

Acne scarring

Rebuilding skin structure

Icepick, boxcar and rolling scars come from damage to the skin's collagen. Collagen induction therapy stimulates new collagen from within, progressively remodelling scar tissue and improving texture over a course.

Frequently asked questions

BYGOLDEN combines acne laser, collagen induction therapy and chemical peels to address active breakouts, post-acne pigmentation and scarring. The right combination is selected by your clinician at your skin consultation based on your skin and goals.

Yes. Laser can improve the appearance of acne scarring, particularly post-inflammatory pigmentation and superficial texture, by stimulating collagen remodelling. For deeper textural scarring such as icepick or boxcar scars, collagen induction therapy is typically the most effective option. A course of treatments produces the most meaningful improvement.

The number of sessions depends on the severity of your acne or scarring and which treatments are used. Most clients benefit from a course of three to six treatments. Your clinician will advise a specific plan at your consultation.

Downtime is generally minimal. Acne laser may cause mild redness that resolves within hours, chemical peels may involve some flaking over the following days, and collagen induction therapy involves redness for 24 to 48 hours. Your clinician will provide detailed aftercare guidance.
