Β Acne is one of the most common yet complex skin conditions, affecting teenagers as well as adults. It can develop due to excess oil production, clogged pores, bacterial growth, hormonal imbalance, stress, dietary factors and environmental triggers such as humidity and pollution, conditions that are especially common in Bhubaneswar. Because acne varies in type and severity, effective treatment always begins with an accurate dermatological diagnosis rather than one size fits all solutions.
At DNA Skin & Hair Sciences, acne treatment is guided by experienced dermatologists who carefully assess your skin type, acne pattern, medical history and lifestyle factors. Acne may present as blackheads, whiteheads, inflammatory pimples, nodules, cystic acne, or persistent adult acne and each form requires a customised approach. Our goal is not only to control active breakouts but also to prevent scarring, pigmentation and long term skin damage.
Treatment plans may include medically approved topical therapies, oral medications when necessary, chemical peels, laser or light based treatments, and advanced procedures depending on the condition and response of the skin. All treatments are evidence based and selected to suit Indian skin types, ensuring both safety and effectiveness. We avoid unnecessary or aggressive treatments and focus on gradual, sustainable improvement.
Patients often notice reduced breakouts, less redness and improved skin texture over time with consistent treatment and follow ups. Along with clinical procedures, equal importance is given to post treatment care, skincare routines, sun protection and lifestyle guidance to maintain results and reduce recurrence.
What sets our acne treatment approach apart is transparency and education. Patients are informed about the expected timeline, number of sessions, possible side effects and realistic outcomes before starting treatment. This helps build trust and allows patients to make informed decisions about their skin health.
If you are struggling with persistent acne or acne scars, consulting a qualified dermatologist in Bhubaneswar can make a significant difference. With expert care, modern technology and personalised treatment plans, achieving clearer, healthier and more confident skin is both safe and achievable.

Whiteheads are closed comedones that form when pores are blocked by oil and dead skin but remain closed at the surface. They usually appear as small, white or skin coloured bumps and are common in oily or combination skin. While they may seem mild, improper handling or overuse of products can worsen inflammation. Dermatologist guided topical treatments help clear whiteheads safely and prevent recurrence.
Blackheads are open comedones where trapped oil and dead skin are exposed to air, causing oxidation and a dark appearance. They commonly occur on the nose, forehead and chin. Blackheads are not caused by dirt and should not be aggressively scrubbed or squeezed. Medical exfoliation, chemical peels and proper skincare guidance help manage blackheads effectively.
Papules are small, red, inflamed bumps that occur when blocked pores become irritated or infected. They are often tender to touch and indicate inflammatory acne. Papules require careful treatment to reduce inflammation and prevent progression into more severe acne forms or scarring. Early dermatological care helps control flare ups and protects skin texture.
Pustules are inflamed acne lesions filled with pus and usually appear red with a white or yellow centre. They develop when bacteria multiply inside clogged pores. Picking or popping pustules increases the risk of pigmentation and scarring, especially in Indian skin types. Medical treatment focuses on controlling infection, reducing inflammation and supporting skin healing.
Nodular acne consists of large, painful, solid lumps that form deep beneath the skin surface. These lesions do not have a visible head and are often associated with hormonal imbalance or genetic factors. Nodular acne requires professional evaluation, as over the counter products are usually ineffective. Dermatologist-supervised treatment helps reduce pain, inflammation and long term skin damage.
Cystic acne is the most severe form of acne and appears as deep, painful, pus filled cysts beneath the skin. It carries a high risk of scarring and pigmentation if not treated correctly. Cystic acne always requires expert dermatological care using a combination of medical therapies and advanced procedures. Early intervention significantly improves outcomes and skin recovery.
All acne treatments at DNA Skin & Hair Sciences are planned and supervised by qualified dermatologists. Every patient undergoes a detailed skin examination to identify the type, severity, and root cause of acne, ensuring safe and clinically appropriate care rather than generic or cosmetic-only solutions.
We use only US FDA approved medications, peels, lasers and dermatology grade equipment. This ensures treatments meet international safety standards and are suitable for Indian skin types, minimizing the risk of complications, pigmentation, or long term damage.
Acne is not the same for everyone. Based on your skin type, age, hormonal factors, lifestyle and medical history, we design a customized acne treatment plan. This may include topical therapy, oral medications, chemical peels, lasers, or a combination approach for effective and lasting results.
Our clinic offers advanced acne solutions such as medical grade chemical peels, prescription based medications and laser or light therapies. These treatments help control active acne, reduce oil production, improve skin texture and prevent future breakouts when used under expert supervision.
All procedures are selected carefully to suit sensitive, acne prone and pigmented skin. We avoid aggressive treatments and focus on gradual improvement to reduce redness, irritation and post inflammatory pigmentation, common concerns in Indian skin.
With consistent treatment and proper follow up care, many patients begin to notice visible improvement in acne, inflammation and skin texture within 3-6 weeks. Results vary depending on acne type and severity, but our focus is always on realistic, long term skin health rather than quick fixes.
Dermatologist prescribed topical creams, gels and oral medications help control active acne by reducing oil production, inflammation and acne causing bacteria. Treatment is carefully selected based on acne type, severity, skin sensitivity and medical history for safe and effective results.
Medical grade chemical peels help unclog pores, reduce acne lesions, improve skin texture, and fade post acne marks. These treatments promote controlled skin exfoliation and renewal under expert supervision, making them safe for both active acne and acne prone skin.
Professional acne extraction safely removes blackheads and whiteheads using sterile techniques. Unlike home extraction, this procedure minimizes skin trauma, reduces infection risk and helps prevent future breakouts and scarring when performed by trained professionals.
Advanced laser technology targets acne causing bacteria, reduces inflammation and controls excess oil production. Laser treatments are especially useful for resistant acne and post inflammatory redness, offering faster recovery and visible improvement with minimal downtime.
Excess oil is a major contributor to recurring acne. Oil control treatments help balance sebum production, tighten pores and maintain skin clarity. These therapies are ideal for oily and combination skin types prone to frequent breakouts.
Hormonal acne requires a targeted approach. Treatment plans may include medical evaluation, hormone balancing therapies, and customised skincare routines to manage breakouts linked to hormonal fluctuations, stress, or underlying conditions, especially in adult patients.
Acne is often influenced by diet, stress, sleep and daily habits. Along with medical treatment, patients receive guidance on lifestyle modifications and skincare practices that support long term acne control and overall skin health.
Every acne treatment begins with a detailed skin examination by an experienced dermatologist. We assess acne type (whiteheads, blackheads, inflammatory acne, nodular or cystic acne), severity, skin type, lifestyle factors and medical history to identify the root cause and avoid unnecessary or aggressive treatments.
Based on the diagnosis, a customised treatment plan is created for your skin. This may include topical medications, oral medicines, in clinic procedures, or a combination approach. Treatment plans are tailored to your age, skin sensitivity, acne severity and long term skin goals to ensure safe and effective results.
When required, advanced in clinic procedures such as chemical peels, laser therapy, or acne extraction are performed under strict medical supervision. These treatments help reduce active acne, control oil production, improve skin texture and prevent future breakouts with minimal downtime.
A structured medication and skincare routine is prescribed to support clinic treatments. This includes dermatologist approved topical products, oral medications (if needed), and guidance on proper cleansing, sun protection, and product usage to avoid irritation and recurrence.
Regular follow ups help track progress and adjust treatment as your skin improves. Our focus is not just clearing acne but preventing recurrence, managing acne marks and maintaining long term skin health through ongoing care, lifestyle guidance, and maintenance treatments.
