Treating acne at a clinical level

Effective acne treatment depends on accurate assessment. Acne presents differently across skin types and has different underlying drivers — hormonal fluctuation, excess sebum production, bacterial colonisation, comedone formation, inflammation. A treatment that works for one presentation may do little for another. At Changes Clinic, our qualified, experienced & insured practitioners assess your skin before recommending any treatment protocol. We do not apply a one-product-fits-all approach.

Our qualified, experienced & insured practitioners work from our CQC-registered clinic at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth. The assessment covers your acne type, severity, skin tone, previous treatments you have tried, and any hormonal or dietary factors that may be contributing. From that assessment, we build a treatment plan that addresses your specific presentation — which may combine in-clinic treatments with prescription-strength topical products where appropriate.

Prescription-strength acne treatment is another area where clinical oversight makes a real difference. Products available over the counter are restricted in their concentration. Our qualified, experienced & insured practitioners can prescribe and administer treatments at clinical concentrations, and can adjust the protocol if your skin's response requires it. That level of flexibility is not available outside a clinical setting.

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 :) .

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 Worthing?

Changes Clinic is at 1000 Lakeside, Cosham, Portsmouth. From Worthing the drive is approximately 40–45 minutes via the A27. Free parking is available at the clinic when you arrive.

Is a consultation required before acne treatment?

Yes, and it is the most important part of the process. Our qualified, experienced & insured practitioners assess your skin type, your acne presentation, and your treatment history before recommending anything. Acne treatment that is not matched to the right presentation can aggravate rather than improve the skin. The consultation is free and sets the foundation for everything that follows.

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

Most clients notice an improvement from their second or third session. A full course of treatment typically runs over 2–3 months, with results continuing to develop as the skin recovers and rebalances. Post-acne scarring can take longer to address and may require a separate treatment protocol. Our qualified, experienced & insured practitioners will give you an honest timeline based on your assessment.

What makes Changes Clinic different from a beauty salon or skincare clinic offering acne treatment?

Our qualified, experienced & insured practitioners can prescribe. That means access to clinical-strength treatments that are not available in a beauty context, and the clinical authority to adjust a treatment protocol if your skin responds unexpectedly. Our CQC-registered clinic operates with governance and accountability that a beauty salon does not carry. We treat acne as the medical skin condition it is, not as a skincare concern to be managed with retail products.
