These tiny, closed bumps form when pores become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Whiteheads can be persistent and annoying, often caused by hormonal fluctuations or excess oil production.
In contrast to whiteheads, blackheads stay open at the surface, allowing trapped oil and dead skin to oxidise and take on a dark hue. Often found on the nose, chin, and forehead, these pesky blemishes can be frustrating for many.
Papules are the red, raised bumps of acne that don't have that pesky pus inside. Clogged pores often cause them and can be a bit tender.
Pustules are the inflamed, red bumps of acne that have a noticeable white or yellow pus-filled center. Pustules can be painful and often appear on the face, back, chest, and shoulders. If left untreated, they can worsen and lead to scarring.
Nodules are a severe form of acne characterised by large, hard, painful lumps that form beneath the skin's surface. Unlike other types of acne, nodules are not filled with pus and can last for weeks or even months.
These are deep, painful acne lesions that are filled with pus. They develop when pores become clogged and inflamed, often leading to significant scarring. Unlike other types of acne, cysts usually require medical treatment to manage effectively.
This type of acne is caused by friction and pressure on the skin. It's common in athletes and others who wear tight-fitting gear. The rubbing can irritate the skin and lead to pimples.
Discover the diverse world of acne: from mild breakouts to severe cystic acne!
For acne treatment, Shumailas can offer a wide range of both clinical and aesthetic treatments designed
to target the underlying causes of acne, reduce breakouts, and improve skin texture.
Chemical peels are effective treatments for various skin concerns. The salicylic acid peel targets oil and acne by penetrating deep into pores to reduce blockages and inflammation. In contrast, the glycolic acid peel exfoliates the top layer of the skin, promoting faster cell turnover and helping to reduce acne scars and pigmentation. Jessner's peel combines multiple acids for a more intensive approach, making it suitable for reducing acne scars and active acne lesions.
Laser skin resurfacing using Erbium YAG effectively reduces acne scars by removing damaged skin layers and stimulating collagen production. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) targets bacteria and reduces inflammation, making it particularly effective for active acne and post-acne pigmentation. Additionally, blue light therapy specifically kills acne-causing bacteria (P. acnes) and reduces active breakouts without damaging the surrounding skin, providing a gentle yet effective solution for acne management.
Microneedling, whether combined with mesotherapy or performed alone, is an effective treatment for improving skin texture and reducing acne scars. Microneedling with mesotherapy enhances healing and stimulates collagen production, delivering additional nutrients to the skin. Meanwhile, microneedling alone creates micro-injuries that stimulate skin repair and collagen formation, further aiding in reducing acne scars. Both approaches promote healthier, more resilient skin.
The HydraFacial with Acne Treatment Booster is a non-invasive facial designed to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate while targeting acne concerns. Enhanced with salicylic acid, it unclogs pores, reduces oil, and calms inflammation, making it ideal for mild to moderate acne. Enjoy clearer, smoother skin without downtime just remember to avoid heavy makeup and direct sun exposure post-treatment for best results.
Medical-grade skincare offers powerful options for acne treatment. Prescription strength retinoids, such as tretinoin, promote skin cell turnover, effectively reducing acne. Topical antibiotics like clindamycin target acne-causing bacteria and help minimise inflammation. Benzoyl peroxide further reduces bacteria and aids in clearing active acne lesions, while niacinamide helps control oil production, reduces inflammation, and promotes skin healing. Together, these ingredients provide a comprehensive approach to managing and improving acne-prone skin.
LED light therapy offers two effective treatments for acne and its aftermath. Blue LED therapy targets and kills acne-causing bacteria while also reducing inflammation, making it ideal for active breakouts. In contrast, red LED therapy calms skin inflammation and helps diminish post-acne redness, promoting overall skin healing. Together, these therapies provide a holistic approach to improving acne-prone skin and enhancing its appearance.
Exosome therapy for acne is an advanced treatment that uses regenerative cell derived particles, called exosomes, to repair and rejuvenate skin at the cellular level. Packed with growth factors and anti-inflammatory properties, exosomes help reduce acne by targeting inflammation, accelerating skin healing, and promoting a smoother, clearer complexion. This non-invasive treatment is ideal for those seeking long-term improvement in skin texture and a reduction in breakouts, leaving the skin healthier and more resilient over time.
Oral medications prescribed by a dermatologist can be crucial for managing more severe or persistent acne. Oral antibiotics are often used to treat cases that do not respond to topical treatments, helping to reduce bacteria and inflammation. For severe acne that remains unresponsive to other therapies, isotretinoin (commonly known as Accutane) is a powerful prescription option that addresses the condition comprehensively, often leading to significant improvement. Together, these medications provide targeted solutions for challenging acne cases.
Dermaplaning is an effective, non-invasive treatment for acne-prone skin, gently exfoliating to remove dead skin cells and fine hair that can trap oils and bacteria. By creating a smoother surface and allowing better absorption of skincare products, dermaplaning helps to reduce clogged pores and minimise breakouts. Ideal for those with mild acne or acne scars, this treatment leaves the skin feeling refreshed, clear, and radiant with no downtime.

chemical peels, microneedling, or lasers) alongside home-care routines.
Acne happens when pores get blocked by oil, dead skin, and bacteria, leading to breakouts like pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. Etc. Whether you’re a teen or an adult, acne can strike, but with the right treatment and care, clearer, glowing skin is within reach.
Acne treatments are suitable for all skin types and ages. However, we offer a complimentary consultation to assess your skin’s unique needs and any potential contraindications. A thorough evaluation will be conducted before and during the treatment to ensure optimal results!
Clients can expect to see results from their acne and acne scarring treatments at Shumaila’s London within the following timelines:
Non-Invasive Treatments: Procedures like HydraFacial and chemical peels provide instant improvements in skin texture and brightness.
Acne Treatments: Noticeable reductions in active acne may occur within this period. Early signs of scar improvement can also start to appear.
Continued Improvement: As the skin heals, clients will see enhanced texture and tone, with further reductions in acne and scars due to collagen stimulation.
Optimal Outcomes: Significant improvements in scarring and overall skin quality are typically visible during this timeframe, especially with ongoing care.
Sustained Skin Health: With maintenance treatments and proper skin care, clients can enjoy lasting results and improved skin health.
Results may vary based on individual factors, but clients can expect progressive improvements, starting with immediate changes and culminating in significant enhancements over several months. Our team is here to support you throughout your treatment journey.

I have completed a month of my Cosmelan Peel & just in a month i’m already seeing huge results. I highly recommend trusting this clinic with any of your needs. I have had Halima help me from start to finish - from making me feel confident about the procedure in the consultation to being open to answer any queries throughout the process, on the phone or in person. Her patience and expertise are a great asset to your team!
Excellent service. I'm so grateful for the advice on treatments for my skin concerns. Being able to go back for consultations and having Nazia on the other end of the phone during home treatment for advice. Definitely recommended 👌 If there was an option for 10 stars that still wouldn't be enough. The staff are so friendly and the premises are so clean

I was a student and I was suffering from a skin condition that was triggered by a wrong treatment in Pakistan. My skin was in a very bad state of pigmentation ,so much that it used to make me depressed and already with so much stress in this country when you move from abroad, it was not helping me. I have contacted many clinics but people were so, cold towards me and nobody really show me any help I have found out Shumaila’s online and I have booked my consultation. I came and see Nazia who were not only informative, but she was very nice kind and polite to me as well. She’s such a nice person. She recommended me the treatment and help me to understand the whole procedure. I was suffering with some financial problems when I called her back she was really accommodating and did not make me feel bad at all. She helped me a lot with the entire procedure and for me a dream coming true to see my face and walking out without even thinking about make up , I have spoken to my mother on video call and she is very happy in this holy month. I can give you lots of prayers Nazia thank you so much for everything.
As my first time getting morpheus8 with prp , I have to say the entire staff was so warm and inviting that I was barely nervous at all. I felt so cared for in the most gentlest way, which put my fears to rest as a new client start her new skin care journey. I can say enough about this outstanding medical group, other than, it’s a place you can trust and really feel good about yourself! I’m so looking forward to my treatments for acne scars and skin tightening treatments and more with these incredible and friendly staff Thank you

I came to Shumaila for skin care as my skin had heavy acne, they were polite and understanding and also offered a good service. Upneet, the lady who did my skin care sessions was a professional as she helped u throughout the treatments.
I go to Cranbrook Road Shumaila’s all the time.. I always see Arshia for my laser, brows, waxing, facial any treatments. Arshia is by far one of the best beauty therapist I have come across always so friendly professional goes absolve and beyond spends quality time and makes every visit to Cranbrook Road Shumaila’s so worth it. I really recommend her to anyone that wants any treatment by a perfectionist. I am a regular customer there and highly recommend them… xx
I highly recommend Shumaila's for skin treatment. From the moment I stepped into their clinic, I was impressed by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. Marima is extremely knowledgeable and professional, and she took the time to listen to my concerns and understand my skin issues. The treatment I received was tailored specifically to my needs, and the results were outstanding. Not only Marima addressed my immediate concerns, but she also provided me with valuable advice on how to maintain healthy skin in the long term. Overall, my experience at Shumaila's exceeded my expectations, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch skincare treatment.
Ive got my facial done from shumailas .the place is always tidy and treatment is always of high quality and this time my therapist ruby was well aware of all details of skin condition
Nazia has been amazing, 15 of tags were removed in less than 10 minutes. Amazing customer service: after I enquired they called me and booked in. Highly recommended!
Currently undergoing laser and hydrofacial treatment for acne scarring. Massive improvements and the staff are incredibly friendly and supportive. Thank you especially to Asma and Arshiyah
Rabia at Shumaila's Upminster delivered an outstanding skincare treatment. Her expertise and personalized approach ensured that my skin received the attention it needed. The results were impressive, leaving my skin feeling rejuvenated and revitalized. I highly recommend Rabia for anyone looking for a skilled and attentive skincare professional at Shumaila's Upminster.
It is very sad that Google only allows five star because I would love to give Nazia multiple stars years My story is, I was suffering with a different kind of skin condition, which was Unexplainable. It was dry, dark patchy and thick Skin and I wasn’t too sure what to do. I came in for a consultation, and after scanning assessment, I didn’t realise what it is. I have strictly followed whatever Nazia told me blindly and after four weeks of my post treatment, I cannot explain in words how happy I’m flying in the sky, a completely different person when she saw me for my skin checkup today she asked me who am I and we both were laughing ❤️❤️

Arzu was so kind to support me on skin concern offered a really good package for me and looking forward to experiencing the skin journey with Shumaila’s. ❤️
"I had never undergone any skin treatment before, but since I have PCOS, I decided to try something new for my skin. After researching, I discovered Shumaila's London and was initially hesitant to trust anyone with my skin. However, after my treatment, I am now 100% confident in Shumaila's London. The hydrafacial and laser treatment left my skin feeling amazing! I'm so glad I took the leap and trusted their expertise."
Had the brightening facial and eyebrow threading done by Huma. The facial included a great massage and she was very gentle during the extraction. I would highly recommend!
Hii I have a lovely experience with shamulias They guide as per my concern first i booked counselling session where they test my skin what i need to do on my face they have all explained to me on counselling session . My face is full of dark spots and hyperpigmentation . Then, when i visited again they did hydra facial and gave me prep kit which prep my skin for next stage peeing of session was started where staff applied products and within next few days my skin started peeling off . This stage was hard where i face pain and swelling on my face but staff guided me well . Whenever i contact staff regarding this or visit to clinic they always welcome me with whole heart and reply quickly . When this peeling off was done my skim looks so clear and fresh . Majority of spots were gone . They have also given me a appropriate products which i used . This helps me lot To get rid of more hyperpigmentation they have done micro needling which clear my skin and tighten as well . Am still using the products and day by day my skin looks more clear and fair . Overall , my experience at shamulias was very good . Staff was co-ordial , helpful and they guided me well whenever i faced problems like pain , swelling , redness . I will recommend if you are facing problems with acne and especially with hyperpigmentation this is must visit staff will definitely guide you as your concerns . Thanls
It’s been my 3rd session for Morpheus8 with PRP and it has been great. I have seen improvement on the texture of my face due to acne scars. Fajar and staffs at the Hammersmith branch have been very accomodating and friendly. I definitely recommend them.
I came in with hyperpigmentation amd acne scaring. I was recommended the Cosmelan treatment by Fajar who was not only extremely kind and answered all my questions, but reassured me that she will always be available should I have any concerns. I am one month post treatment and still undergoing my journey, and the consultants at the Hammersmith branch have been so wonderful. Anytime I had any questions, Fajar was fully on hand and walked me through any questions or concerns I had. My skin is so much better that I haven't seen it like this in years. I am beyond excited to continue this skin journey I am on.

Acne usually clears up over time, often starting in puberty and subsiding as hormones stabilise. However, for some, it can continue into adulthood. At Shumaila’s London, we’ve helped many clients who felt they’d tried everything without success, as shown by our positive testimonials and success stories.
At Shumaila’s London, we offer a personalised consultation to assess your skin type, acne severity, and scarring. Based on this evaluation, our experts will design a customised treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Most of our treatments are minimally invasive and designed for comfort. Treatments like HydraFacial and chemical peels are painless, while procedures like microneedling or Morpheus8 may cause slight discomfort. We use numbing creams to ensure a comfortable experience.
Some treatments, like HydraFacial and chemical peels, offer instant improvements in skin clarity and texture. Treatments that focus on deeper skin healing, such as microneedling or laser therapy, may take a few weeks for the full results to appear as the skin regenerates.
Yes, we offer treatments suitable for all skin types and tones. Our skilled practitioners have experience treating various skin types, including darker tones, and will recommend the safest and most effective treatment for your skin.
Most treatments have minimal side effects, such as mild redness or sensitivity, which subside within a few days. Our practitioners provide post-treatment care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and minimise any potential side effects.
