Acne Treatment from Andover — What to Expect

Changes Clinic is at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth — around 50 to 55 minutes from Andover via the A303 and M27. Free on-site parking at the clinic means the journey is the only thing to plan. Clients from Andover come to Changes Clinic for acne treatment because effective clinical intervention requires assessment and prescription-grade options that many local providers cannot offer. We address both active acne and post-acne scarring in a regulated clinical environment.

About Acne Treatment

Acne treatment at Changes Clinic begins with a thorough clinical assessment. The right approach to acne depends on its type, severity, distribution, and your skin's history. Our practitioners assess all of these factors before recommending a treatment protocol, which may combine more than one modality for the best outcome.

We offer chemical peels calibrated to acne-prone skin, laser treatments that target active breakouts and reduce inflammation, LED light therapy using specific wavelengths proven to address acne-causing bacteria, and advanced skincare formulations to support the skin between sessions. For post-acne scarring, we add treatments such as microneedling and resurfacing to improve skin texture and reduce the visibility of marks left behind by previous breakouts.

A typical programme runs across 4 to 8 sessions spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart, with ongoing maintenance depending on your skin's response. Active acne requires consistent treatment to bring it under control. Scarring responds more slowly and may need 6 to 12 months of treatment to see significant improvement.

Find full information on our acne treatment service page.

Why Choose Changes Clinic Near Andover

Clinical assessment before any treatment plan. Acne does not respond to a one-size-fits-all approach. Our practitioners assess skin type, severity, and history before recommending a programme. We do not sell a package before understanding your skin.

Multiple clinical modalities in one clinic. Changes Clinic offers chemical peels, laser, LED therapy, and advanced skincare under one roof, which means your treatment can be adapted and combined as your skin improves. This is not a single-product clinic.

CQC-registered, free parking, Klarna at 0%. We operate from a Care Quality Commission-registered facility at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham. Free parking on site and 0% Klarna finance make both the journey and the cost of a full treatment programme manageable.

Very happy with my consultation. I got the answers I was hoping for and I will soon be booking myself in for a quick and easy mole/sun spot removal. I now have a new understanding of what the problem is and what has caused it. Thank you.

I’ve suffered with rosacea for several years and have tried all sorts of creams, skincare routines and products, but nothing really made a lasting difference. Looking after my skin and being mindful of my diet definitely helps to keep it under control, but IPL at Changes Clinic has made the biggest difference by far. The redness in my face has reduced so much, and even when I do get a flare up, it’s nowhere near as bad as it used to be because the underlying redness has improved so much. Everyone at Changes Clinic has been friendly, professional and really knowledgeable. They’ve always taken the time to answer any questions and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I’d happily recommend Changes Clinic to anyone who suffers from rosacea and is thinking about IPL. It’s made a huge difference to my skin and has given me so much more confidence.

It’s the first time I’ve done something like this. What a lovely place & people. Very kind, polite & efficient. Very impressed with my procedure, obviously, it hasn’t healed yet, but will definitely be back for more treatment & also considering other treatments too. Well impressed and everything was explained as the treatment was carried out, pleasantly surprised, thank you so much for taking such good care of my skin. Lee B

I had PRP Hair Treatment, with Sumayiah, she is very friendly, she takes the time to explain the procedure and really makes sure to focus on target areas. I have had 2 treatments so far and I already see a difference in my hair density and texture. She can use a gun or syringe, the syringe goes deeper and achieves better results, so its worth asking for the syringe method. I combined my PRP with Calecim serum and that gives an even greater boost. So I recomend you sign up and ask for a booking with Sumaiyah, you'll be very happy that you did..

One of the best decisions I’ve made for my skin! The treatments are effective, safe, and handled by experienced professionals. I struggled with acne for years, and after visiting this clinic, I finally see clear and healthy skin. The staff always follows up after treatments, which shows how much they care about their clients’ progress. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction is truly impressive. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone who wants real results and excellent service.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere with great staff. My lazer hair removal was undertaken by two very capable proffessional young women Kelly and Surmaiyah. Both demonstrate constant care and ensure this not always comfortable experience is as pleasant as possible. The facility is immaculately clean and there is excellent visitor free parking available. I have no hesitation in recommending the clinic to others and whilst I can only comment on the treatments I have received to date I will be availing myself of some of the others services offered.

I am so glad I visited the Changes Clinic today for an upper abdominal ultrasound. I was a nervous wreck as I have a bit of a phobia of scans & Andrea was just brilliant with me. So reassuring, she went above & beyond with careful detailed descriptions, even went over some areas twice just for extra reassurance. I left smiling with a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I have already recommended to a friend & highly recommend to anyone experiencing symptoms they’d like some extra peace of mind for. Was also really easy to book & communication excellent throughout. Thank you so much!!

I’ve been attending changes for facial hair removal for about 6 months now and I can honestly say it’s been one of the best and easiest experiences for me. Sumaiyah has been amazing through every step. From consultation to our current progress. She shows great professionalism, compassion, consideration -especially when I’m having a bad pain tolerance day- and is very meticulous in which the results are to show for it. Every appointment I get a little nervous and Sumaiyah has always put my nerves at ease and worked at a pace that suits me and my needs. I’m very thankful to work with her and be attending changes clinic. I would recommend their treatment. The staff are very welcoming. Adriana Verrier :) .

Chloe was very well informed and helpful. There was probably too much information to absorb in the time span, and more published literature would be helpful (FAQs, prices, offers, medical considerations etc)

Common Questions

How far is Changes Clinic from Andover?
We are at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth — around 50 to 55 minutes from Andover via the A303 and M27. Free on-site parking is available at the clinic, making regular appointments across a full treatment programme easy to manage.
How many sessions will I need?
Active acne typically requires a programme of 4 to 8 sessions, spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart, to bring breakouts under meaningful control. Post-acne scarring takes longer to address and may need 6 or more sessions over several months. Your practitioner will give you a realistic assessment at your free consultation based on your skin's current condition.
Is there any downtime after acne treatment?
Downtime varies by treatment. Most sessions produce mild redness that settles within 24 hours. Deeper chemical peels or laser treatments may involve 3 to 5 days of visible peeling or redness. Your practitioner will confirm what to expect from each specific treatment in your plan before it takes place, so there are no surprises.
What happens at my first appointment?
Your free consultation is a full skin assessment. Your practitioner examines your skin, asks about your breakout history, what you have already tried, and any relevant health factors. Based on this, they recommend a treatment plan with specific modalities, a realistic timeline, and a clear cost breakdown. No treatment takes place at your consultation unless you are ready to start on the same day.
