Dealing with acne can be frustrating and overwhelming. Whether it is the occasional breakout or persistent acne, it can affect your confidence and leave behind scars. When choosing the best acne treatments, you may need something that works on multiple levels, addressing not just surface concerns but also the underlying causes. Here’s why:
Over It? Take a Stronger Approach
Unlike facials that focus on a single method, fusion treatments offer a well-rounded combination of carefully selected solutions to tackle acne more comprehensively.
This approach allows us to address surface-level issues such as clogged pores, inflammation, and acne scars, while also reaching deeper into the skin to control acne-causing bacteria and oil production to diminish future breakouts. This leads to better, long-lasting results and healthier, clearer skin.
What Is the Most Efficient Treatment for Acne?
The most efficient acne treatment will depend on the severity and type of acne you are dealing with. Fusion Face Treatments offer two powerful options:
- Triple Action Acne Clearing: This three-step treatment is perfect for those with moderate acne.
It begins with hydradermabrasion to deeply cleanse and exfoliate the skin, removing impurities and unclogging pores. LED light therapy is then applied to soothe the skin and kill acne-causing bacteria, accelerating the healing process.
Finally, an acne-specific peel diminishes inflammation and helps reduce future breakouts. This method offers a multi-faceted approach to treating and preventing acne, leaving your skin smooth and clear.
- Ultimate Acne Defense Trio: If you have more widespread or persistent acne, this advanced treatment is ideal.
It starts with hydradermabrasion and LED light therapy, just like the Triple Action Acne Clearing treatment. However, it takes things a step further with Mesotherapy, which delivers active ingredients more deeply into the skin to control oil production, and promote healing. This trio offers a deeper, more intense treatment to tackle acne at its root and promote long-term skin clarity.
What is mesotherapy?
We offer non-invasive mesotherapy, which triggers micro-vibrations in the skin tissue to improve the delivery of active ingredients and your skin’s ability to absorb them.
This pushes the nutrients deeper into the skin while also stimulating collagen production, leading to firmer, glowing skin. This painless method offers excellent results with no downtime.
How Can I Clear Up Acne Fast?
While there is no instant cure for acne, combining multiple treatments into one session is one of the fastest ways to see visible results. Fusion Face Treatments are designed to target acne from different ‘angles’, making them highly effective for achieving clearer skin faster than using single treatments alone.
How can I treat my acne scars?
There are multiple solutions available to treat your acne scars, whether they are pigmented, indented, or both!
Pigmented acne scars: areas of discoloration or hyperpigmentation left behind after an acne breakout.
Pitted acne scars: characterized by depressions, indents, or uneven texture on the skin’s surface caused by the loss of collagen or tissue during the healing process.
Treatments for Pitted & Pigmented Acne Scars
- Uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin regeneration.
- It is effective for treating indented acne scars by encouraging collagen remodelling, filling in the depressions and improving the texture of the skin.
- Microneedling also helps reduce the appearance of pigmented acne scars by promoting skin cell turnover and fading hyperpigmentation over time.
- Fractional laser treatments create microthermal zones within the skin, stimulating collagen synthesis and skin remodelling for treating both indented and pigmented acne scars.
- Laser energy promotes collagen production, plumping the skin to minimize depressions, and targeting pigmentation, reducing discoloration.
PicoSure Laser for Pigmented Scars & Large Pores
- PicoSure laser delivers ultra-short pulses of energy to the skin, targeting specific pigmented areas or scar tissue.
- It is particularly beneficial for addressing pigmented acne scars, as the laser energy breaks down melanin deposits, reducing discoloration and promoting a more even skin tone.
- By promoting collagen remodelling and surface skin tightening, it can also reduce the size and visibility of pores over time, resulting in a smoother and more refined complexion.

How many treatments will I need?
Microneedling and laser treatments for acne scars require multiple sessions (we recommend starting with 3 sessions) to be effective as your skin needs time to undergo natural collagen remodelling triggered by the treatment. Gradual improvement is achieved with each treatment session as the scars gradually fill in and the skin texture becomes smoother after each appointment.
This allows new, less marked skin to be generated after each treatment until you reach your desired outcome.
Should I get Microneedling or Laser?
Both these acne scar solutions give excellent results. We offer both types to give you options based on your unique skin type and personal preferences. For many people, it simply comes down to a choice between the sensation of microneedles or the warm energy of a laser treatment.
Every treatment begins with a complimentary consultation with an expert skin technician to determine the perfect solution personalized to your skin.
Typically, microneedling is ideal for those with milder scarring while laser treatments suit skin with more pronounced scarring. Although more intensive, laser often yields quicker results.
An At-Home Skincare Routine to Support Your Treatments
Essential Components of a Skincare Routine
- Cleanser: A good cleanser with salicylic acid removes dirt, oil, and makeup from your skin.
- Toner: A toner helps to balance your skin’s pH and prepares it for the next steps.
- Serum: Use serums with vitamin C to help neutralize free radicals caused by UV exposure, which helps reduce inflammation.
- (Night) Retinol: Apply retinol at night to promote cell turnover and help unclog pores, which diminishes breakouts and promotes clearer skin.
- Moisturizer: Oily skin needs moisturizer to maintain balance and reduce that overproduction of oil caused by skin dehydration.
- (Day) SPF: Finish with sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) during the day to accelerate the fading of your acne scars (and protect your skin).
Here’s A Curated Daily Routine for Acne-Prone Skin:
- Cleanser: Medicated Wash
- Toner: Refreshing Toner
- Active Ingredients: Vivier Acne Lotion (for widespread acne) or Serum 10
- Eye Cream (if this is something you use): Radiant Eye Contour Cream
- Moisturizer: Image VITAL C Hydrating Intense Moisturizer
- SPF: EltaMD UV Clear or Tinted SPF 46 for acne-prone skin
- Retinol: Vivier range: Start at 0.3% and work your way toward 1% retinol in the span of a year to prevent skin sensitivity.
Can Acne Be Cured Permanently?
Acne is managed, not eliminated. However, with the right skincare routine and professional treatments, you can manage acne effectively, reduce future breakouts, and diminish scarring. Fusion Face Treatments not only treat existing acne but also focus on prevention, helping you maintain a smooth, clearer complexion long-term.
Which of the Two Fusion Face Treatments for Acne Should I Pick?

Triple Action Acne Clearing is perfect for those with moderate acne. This treatment focuses on cleansing, soothing, and preventing future breakouts. It is ideal if you have occasional acne flare-ups and want a straightforward approach to keep your skin healthy.
The Ultimate Acne Defense Trio is designed for those with more persistent or stubborn acne. This treatment goes deeper, targeting the root causes of acne with mesotherapy to control oil production, bacteria, and inflammation. It is a better choice if you are dealing with widespread breakouts and need a more intensive solution.
