Acne Treatment

When Susan talked about changing my whole skincare and make up routine I was convinced she was just another sales person trying to make money out of me. But Susan’s passion and empathy became apparent after our consultation and putting my trust in her knowledge is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made!
Susan educated me about what was causing the acne and why many of the products I had tried in the past hadn’t worked. The new routine took some getting used to and my skin definitely got worse before it got better but persistence paid off and gradually my skin started to clear. The most important thing is to stick to the routine and the products 100% and not to put anything else on your skin. It’s a big commitment but it’s definitely worth it!
My friends / family cannot believe the change they have seen over the past 6 months, not only in the appearance of my skin but also in the way it has affected my confidence and my personality. Before starting treatment, I had extremely low self-esteem and never left the house without applying a full face of heavy make-up. The acne affected every aspect of my life, but thanks to Susan I am now able to do so many things that I felt unable to do before.
I would recommend anyone to see Susan, no matter how young or old. With patience and perseverance, your skin will begin to thank you!

- MICRODERMABRASION If appropriate, we use a non-toxic, chemical-free microdermabrasion to clear the dead skin cells and unblock the pores.
- PEELS Our acne targeted peels are another alternative for the deeper exfoliation of the outermost layer of skin. They treat acne from below the surface, clarifying, soothing and preventing skin impurities. We thoroughly assess and evaluate the suitability of peels for each client, as their programme progresses with us, as part of the combination therapy approach we apply for the treatment of acne.
- DIODE LIGHT THERAPY (RED AND BLUE LIGHT THERAPY) The blue light assists the clearance of the P.acnes bacteria from the sebaceous pores and the red light helps the skin to heal itself. Progressive treatments bring about a significant clearance of the acne as well as improvement in skin tone and texture.
- PRODUCTS The products used in the clinic as well as the home care regimen that we will advise, are synergistic with your treatment. They help to keep the skin clear of a build up of dead cells. They also have the capacity to penetrate the sebum filled follicles, unclogging, reducing and refining pore size. This simple, effective and affordable skincare programme requires consistency and persistency. It will not get better within 1-2 weeks, but will get better within 5-6 months, provided you follow the programme as directed. Introducing other products might compromise results. We recommend only the use of our skin-friendly and healthy mineral make-up ranges. They offer excellent coverage and are free of chemicals, dyes and fragrances that can irritate already sensitive skin. They are without talc, mineral oil and other comedogenic ingredients that block pores and exacerbate the acne condition. They actually help to soothe, protect, nourish and help heal the skin and provide a flawless finish.
My treatments included microdermabrasion and Gym for Skin. For the three days following every treatment, my skin would appear redder and often spots cropped up. However, Susan reassured me that this is all part of the process and so I persevered. Sure enough, on the fourth day and onwards my skin becomes glowing, smooth and more supple than it had ever been before! And this happens month after month with every treatment and my skin is only getting better and better.
I’m so happy with how much smoother and clearer my skin has become and I look forward to my skin becoming healthier and more healed with her. Thank you, Susan.

After a bit of Googling, I came across Skincare InsideOut. I studied the website extensively, read every review and stared at every single picture of people whose acne had cleared up after putting their skin in Susan’s hands. I felt like all my prayers had been answered and that I had finally found something to get rid of my acne!! (Spoiler alert: it is indeed getting rid of my acne!!)
I sent Susan an email to get the ball rolling, we then spoke on the phone and scheduled a Zoom consultation. She explained everything about acne, and how you must stick 100% to the regime she tailors to your skin, throw everything else away and put nothing but the approved products on your face. This may sound daunting, but it’s the best thing I have ever done. You just have to trust her, she really knows what she’s talking about, and your skin will get better!
Due to the clinic being unable to open due to lockdown, I started off just by using the products she recommended for me at home. Initially, my acne got a bit worse, my skin got a bit dry, but Susan assured me this was normal, and in due course, my skin would start to clear up. As I write this, I don’t have a single active spot on my face (!!!!) and I’m currently five months and one visit to the clinic into my regime. To begin with, I was anxious to visit the clinic once it had reopened. Initially I was going to wait until things were a bit more “normal”, but after going to pick up a refill for one of my products, Susan showed me around the clinic, talked me though the Covid safety precautions she has in place, and immediately I felt safe and knew I wouldn’t feel anxious coming to have a treatment at the clinic during Covid.
About 3 weeks later I had my first treatment, and immediately felt and saw a difference! The products alone work incredibly well for me, but the treatments at the clinic are just the cherry on top. Susan made me feel comfortable, safe and at ease the entire time, and I can’t wait to go for my next treatment.
My acne and scars are finally disappearing, and I cannot thank Susan enough for helping me get the skin I’ve always hoped for.

after treatment
I was convinced it was the masks, so kept trying a variety of different types of masks. I was trying all sorts of products and spending a fortune on all different things, nothing seemed to be working. As a hairdresser, I come across many therapists in the beauty industry and thought that I looked after and did the best for my skin. Feeling very frustrated, I contacted the GP and was prescribed antibiotics and an antibiotic cream. The medication made my skin so sore and dry which I felt and looked awful, as well as wearing a disposable mask all day. I was still certain it was caused by the masks but could not find a solution.
I was recommended to Susan and saw her for a consultation in October 2020. I had my first treatment in November and made a start using the products. Then, lock down number three was announced so I could not continue with my monthly treatments as planned. I strictly stuck to Susan’s advice, using the whole range of products at home including the make-up during this time (by the way, the make-up is lovely, and it feels like it is treating the skin, rather than just masking the acne). I couldn’t believe how well my skin was doing!
By April and end of lockdown, my skin was so clear and was hardly getting any spots. I couldn’t believe it! I’ve been peri menopausal for 5 years and haven’t been spot free for years. Since April I’ve had another four treatments and I’m over the moon with its success. The scars and deep pitting that I had has greatly improved! My skin is so clear… and I’ve been wearing a mask at work for over 8 hours a day and I’ve not had any spots!
I would definitely recommend this treatment and the products. It is such a worthwhile investment. I’m 46 and my skin is 100 % better than in my 30’s. I’m really so grateful to Susan.

Susan gave me a strict regime to follow which I have been using religiously. A month later when the lockdown was eased, I visited her clinic for my first treatment in April. Since then, I have seen a massive difference on my face, most of my blackheads are faded, my face feels smooth and glowing and I get a lots of compliments from my friends. A big thanks to Susan for such an amazing experience. I feel more confident already and I know that each month and each treatment will bring further improvement.

Susan was recommended to me on a few occasions, but I thought that it was unlikely she could improve my acne because I had never heard of her before and I thought only someone ‘high profile’ on Harley Street would be able to cure my acne. But I could not have been more wrong!
I went for a consultation with Susan after my visit to the clinic in Essex. I went feeling sceptical and not expecting much from the visit. However, I left making a plan on how I can start saving money to start my treatment with Susan. The consultation had instantly made me feel confident in her ability. She made it very clear that this was her area of expertise, she was firm about the rules and how she ran her business, achieving good results. You didn’t tell Susan what you wanted, she would tell you what your skin needed! It was completely different to a cosmetic brand or treatment.
I have continued having treatment at Skincare InsideOut for 3 years now and I have seen a marked and continued improvement in my skin. I absolutely love the monthly treatments and the products, which is bespoke to my skin’s needs. How Susan treats her clients is very different to anywhere I have previously been, it is never about a sale or money. It is purely about what she recommends for your skin and what you can do within your budget. I can ask her for advice and I always feel like she is giving advice based on her knowledge and not about selling another product or service.
If you are looking for a specialist to treat your skin, Skincare Inside Out is who you need to visit.

Upon recommendation we went to see Susan; Lucia was under 16 and so she could not receive any facial treatment directly. However, Susan examined her acne and expertly selected a range of products and worked out a routine for Lucia’s skincare. Lucia very strictly adhered to Susan’s advice and applied the products as instructed. The products have definitely helped to improve Lucia’s acne and her skin looks a lot clearer and healthier which has helped restore her self-confidence. We would like to thank Susan so much for all her help and assistance.

I first got told about Susan about 5 years ago, but after trying soo many things before to try and get my skin better, I was sceptical about just how effective it would be, and as I live in Suffolk, I was unsure if I could fit it into my life and it be worth it. My cousin, who had very similar skin to me started seeing Susan at that time. 3 years later and I met up with her for the first time in ages and her skin was stunning – clear, smooth and glowing. During those 3 years, she had been using Susan’s products and having the treatments. Myself on the other hand had spent a fortune on I don’t know how many different products, with none of them working, and my skin looking just as bad as ever. I decided that enough was enough and to try Susan – oh how I wish I had done sooner!
Susan is extremely knowledgeable about skin and the different problems it can have, and she is very giving with this knowledge. Finally, you are getting told something that actually makes sense! As you will read from her site, you do have to give up all products that you are using and this may seem hard at first, but it totally makes sense – you have been using all these products and they are not working, so why carry on using them! If they worked then you wouldn’t be reading this website! It did not take long for my skin to start showing the benefits from all of Susan’s work, and if there were any issues then Susan would immediately help me.
My skin is now a constant source of surprise to me when I look in the mirror. I am just totally shocked by how clear it is. I keep waiting for it to fail, as everything else I tried before did, but it just keeps getting better instead. I have this amazing sense of relief for the first time in what feels like forever, where I don’t have to think about what products I should or shouldn’t be using – I can walk past beauty sections in shops, or magazine articles about skin, and just be confident that I already know and am using the answer – Susan!
If you are reading this and suffer from bad skin/acne then I promise you, you have finally found something that will actually work. Please do give Susan a try. I know you might be dubious, I know it might seem like a big sacrifice, but I promise you, it works, no question. I wish that someone had told me about her before, it would have saved me years of anxiety, depression, and insecurity. I cannot sing her praises highly enough (to the point I have actually started telling complete strangers who I see with bad skin all about her!) and I will forever be indebted to her for helping me finally feel comfortable in my own skin.

I wasn’t very enthusiastic about throwing away my trusty foundation that I had used for years, as I felt it was a mask for me; one in which I could safely hide behind in order to face the world. However, I was willing to try anything because my confidence and my patience were at an all-time low, as I was sick of the constant barrage of spots. I was pleasantly surprised with her range of mineral make up available and after practising, it looked really amazing and gave great coverage.
The treatments themselves are pain free and relaxing, and the actual results are that my complexion has never been so clear! I’m honestly so happy with the new me and never thought that I would have such results as I have done. It’s done amazing things for my confidence. Many thanks, Susan!

My skin felt dry and flaky and the spots did not disappear. For years I went through ups and downs with my skin, trying every single product out there, forever envious of others with flawless skin. I was so self-conscious of my skin, I would not go out anywhere, including the gym, without make-up!
I was introduced to Skincare InsideOut in July 2016. Susan educated me about my skin, what was causing the spots, how the products work and then the make-up that I could and couldn’t use. As soon as I started treatment, I decided to keep a photo diary of my entire journey to capture the difference in my skin, which I would love to share with you.

Each month I have seen a progressive change in my skin, but it has been a bit of a rollercoaster too. Yes, I continued to have breakouts through the first 5 months and at times I debated whether this was another regime and set of products that were going to fail me. But the key was persistence and staying committed 100% to the products. The scarred and pinkish skin surrounding old spots has reduced and the congestion all over my face has all but gone, and I truly feel so much more confident.
I only use the products that Susan has recommended – 100%. I must admit that when I attended my initial consultation I felt nervous about changing my make-up and thought I would have to make a massive compromise. I was wrong. The make-up is beautiful to wear, quick to apply and offers great coverage. I can still contour with my bronzer and concealer bought from Susan and I believe it looks just as good as any other brand bought on the high street. I love using the skincare products, they smell delicious and leave my skin smooth and replenished. Best of all – they work.
My skin is now healthy and glowing and I’m ecstatic with the results I now have and it’s all thanks to Susan.
The first time I went to see her, I was nervous to say the least. I was apprehensive about changing my skincare products more than anything else. Thank goodness I did. Apart from my monthly treatment appointment, I love the skincare that she recommended to treat my acne condition and couldn’t imagine using anything else now. The recommended make-up that I was most nervous of, is now part of my everyday routine. I’ve found my own perfect way of applying it and I’m totally in love with it! My skin has changed completely without the use of antibiotics and harsh products that I had tried using without success, over many years.
Six months on and I am over the moon with the difference in my skin without the use of medication. Susan explains everything step-by-step, helping you understand the whole recovery process, which is really interesting and helps you understand how to best look after your skin. Putting my trust in her knowledge and recommendations has really paid off for me. I just wish I has started sooner. It is the best money I’ve spent as I felt nothing would ever clear up my acne after 16 years of suffering and it finally has. Worth every penny!

Acne FAQ
What level of acne do you treat?
We treat mild to moderate levels of acne and our treatments and products are suitable for all skin types. It is best to treat this condition as soon as the first signs of congestion appear on the skin and before infection takes hold in the deeper dermis. It can often be treated with one or a few treatments and by using the right cosmeceutical grade products.
How long is the course of treatment?
This varies from one individual to the next, depending on the condition of the skin. If the acne is very mild, some can see a significant improvement after one or two treatments and can maintain a clearer skin condition by using the recommended cosmeceutical grade skincare products at home.
Acne that has been present for a long time and with persistent breakouts will need an ongoing course of monthly treatments for a minimum of 6 months, along with the recommended homecare products. Depending on the severity of the condition, it could take up to 12 months. Ongoing treatments and consistent use of our home skincare regime are recommended to help maintain clear skin.
Can you help acne scarring?
Yes! You might notice your skin gets smoother as you progress through your treatment programme. It is important however, to first get the acne under control before tackling the issue of scarring to get the best results. Even the most severe cases of acne scarring can be dramatically improved with the right treatment.
Can I wear make-up during my course of treatment?
Yes, our skin-healthy mineral make-up is non-comedogenic and is enriched with essential nutrients to replenish, protect and heal the skin. It is anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial and provides excellent coverage. It is perfect for use by acne sufferers.
Do I have to use your products?
Yes, it is essential. Our products and make-up are specially formulated for acneic skin. They are non-comedogenic, and cosmeceutically graded and support your treatment programme to bring about the best results.
What does acne treatment cost?
This depends on the condition of your skin and we can only assess this at your consultation.
The skincare products that are a requisite as part of your treatment programme are very reasonably priced, a little goes a long way and they are more affordable than many high street brands.
We suggest you contact us for a free, no-obligation consultation.
My daughter struggled with acne from the age of 13 and we tried all sorts of things to help her manage her sore extremely spotty skin. It really affected her confidence and mood. When Grace was old enough, we visited Susan for a consultation during which she shared her approach and gave a thorough overview of the causes of acne and how best to manage it. She then went on to speak with Grace about the best products to use for her skin and the way that treatments would work.
Grace has been visiting Susan for over two years and she is absolutely delighted with the results. She rarely has spots now and her confidence has gone from strength to strength. Susan has been amazing! She explained each step to Grace and is always available to answer questions or queries. Grace loves coming to her appointments almost as much as the results. I can’t recommend her enough.
However, in the summer of 2014 I was recommended I go along to Susan at Skincare InsideOut. It was from here that the transformation in my skin began. Along with an individualised treatment plan Susan educated me on how to best care for my skin at home, something of which I had never been made aware of before. It was Susan’s knowledge and genuine care for my complexion that struck me most, not once was I made to feel as though it was merely a sales pitch!
The products which she recommended for me have proven a day to day lifesaver! In combination with my monthly treatments, the products continue to give me that ‘post clinic-feeling’ for the remainder of the month. Despite having both a morning and night regime I’ve not once felt as though it’s a chore, rather something I look forward to given the smooth, radiant finish it gives my skin each time.

And as for the make-up, well I could never be without! Again, Susan is extremely knowledgeable of her products and always recommends what will best suit your individual needs, albeit she claims she is not a make-up artist! For me, the make-up provides what I can only describe as a professional finish, just enough coverage without looking too much. However, as I have progressed through my treatments, I have found I need less and less make-up, a direct result of the overall improvement in my complexion!
For me, there is no better place to combat your skins needs than at Skincare InsideOut. They have worked miracles on my skin, something that I am confident they can do for everyone. You no longer need to let problem or acne-prone skin affect you, rather book an appointment at Skincare InsideOut and just watch the transformation for yourself. I have not been this happy in my own skin since my pre-teens and I owe that only to Susan and Jacey!

I was recommended to Susan by a friend of a friend, who has had a successful outcome under Susan’s guidance. I was told that I must follow her regime very carefully, as it is important to use the products as prescribed. I was slightly sceptical at first, as I thought this would be yet another lot of expensive products that would yet again fail. I was so sick and tired of being let down and my skin was stressing me out so much that I was beginning to lose hope and think that it would be this way forever. I would even say it depressed me. As well as that, committing to this, meant a two-hour journey each way to Susan and time off work, each month, so this was a lot of effort for me. Despite this, I decided to give it a go as a last resort.
When I had my first appointment with Susan, she gave me an in-depth lesson on the science of skin, the cause of my acne and congested skin. She reassured me that my skin would improve, but only if I followed my regime strictly. She also told me to be patient – there will be ups and downs and it will take at least six months to start seeing a clear difference.
Unfortunately, lockdown happened, so I was only able to have one more appointment in November. I continued using the products only during this lockdown period and was then able to return in April 2021 to continue my course of in-clinic treatment.
Every month, I travel from Norfolk to Bedford for a treatment with Susan or Jacey and they are both lovely, reassuring and instantly put my mind at ease. I absolutely love going as I know it is another step closer to clear skin.
As I continue to follow the skin regime at home (not a chore!) and have my monthly appointments, I am seeing results. My friends and family know what a huge deal my skin has been for me and they have all noticed the improvement. I am growing with confidence every week and yes, there have been ups and downs along the way. But when I have had a blip, Susan reassures me and makes me feel so much better instantly.
I understand how acne can make you feel and I truly believe that this treatment has completely changed my mental wellbeing. I will continue to see Susan each month, and I will continue to use the products and make up forever!
