Acne treatment built around your skin, not a generic protocol

Acne is not a single condition with a single solution. Hormonal acne behaves differently from congestion-driven breakouts. Cystic acne requires a different approach to surface-level comedones. Skin that has been treated with harsh over-the-counter products needs a different starting point than untreated skin. A treatment plan that does not account for these differences is unlikely to produce meaningful results.

At Changes Clinic, your acne treatment begins with a clinical skin assessment carried out by a qualified, experienced & insured practitioner. The assessment identifies your acne type, the skin's current condition, any previous treatments that have been tried and your lifestyle factors. From this, your practitioner builds a treatment plan specific to your skin. This may include chemical peels, LED light therapy, medical-grade skincare, or a combination of these, depending on what your skin responds to.

Our CQC-registered clinic provides the clinical environment and governance for treatments that go beyond standard facial protocols. We do not sell a generic acne package. We build a clinical response to your specific concern and adjust it as your skin responds.

What we treat

We treat all common forms of acne: comedonal (blackheads and whiteheads), papules and pustules, hormonal breakouts and post-acne pigmentation. We also address acne scarring with appropriate resurfacing treatments following active acne control. The face, back and chest are the most commonly treated areas.

Treatment plans typically involve a series of sessions alongside a home skincare protocol your practitioner recommends. Consistency matters more than any single treatment session.

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 went for an ultrasound scan due the NHS appointment waiting time was a longtime away, the service I recieved from Andrea was excellent, second to none, Andrea explained everything including the results of the scan straight afterwards.

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 :) .

I had an amazing experience — very friendly and welcoming from the moment I arrived. She was super helpful, incredibly knowledgeable, and truly professional throughout. She made me feel completely at ease. Such a down-to-earth lady that you can feel genuinely comfortable with. Her prices are so reasonable and very affordable too. I highly recommend Andrea

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 Chichester?

Changes Clinic is at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth. From central Chichester, the drive takes approximately 20 to 25 minutes on the A27 heading east. Free parking is available on site.

Is a consultation required before acne treatment?

Yes. Effective acne treatment depends on understanding your skin type, acne severity and history. Your practitioner conducts a clinical skin assessment before recommending a treatment plan. This assessment also identifies any products or medications you are already using that might affect treatment choice. The consultation is free.

How long does it take to see results from acne treatment?

Most clients begin to see improvement within four to six weeks of starting their treatment course. Acne does not clear overnight. A course of treatments combined with a home skincare routine produces progressive results over two to three months. Post-acne pigmentation and scarring improve more slowly. Your practitioner will set realistic expectations based on your skin at the initial assessment.

What makes Changes Clinic different from a beauty salon offering acne facials?

A clinical acne treatment protocol is not the same as a facial. At Changes Clinic, a qualified, experienced & insured practitioner assesses your acne type before recommending treatment. We use medical-grade chemical peels and products that work at a level standard salon treatments cannot reach. Our CQC-registered clinical setting means treatments are carried out under proper clinical governance. Beauty salon acne facials typically cleanse and extract. They do not address the biological drivers of acne or use ingredients at clinical concentrations.
