An award-winning clinic with a commitment to excellence
At Self London, we believe that excellent patient care starts with a commitment to delivering the best acne treatment in London. Our clinic has been recognised with numerous awards, highlighting our dedication to achieving outstanding results for every patient. When you choose Self London, you’re choosing a clinic that is at the forefront of dermatology, offering the latest advancements in acne treatment and skincare.
Comprehensive care: More than just skincare
Many clinics in London offer basic acne treatments, but Self London provides a comprehensive approach that goes beyond the usual prescription creams and medications. We understand that effective acne treatment requires a combination of advanced technology, expert knowledge, and holistic care. Our patients benefit from an integrated approach that covers every aspect of acne treatment, from initial diagnosis to advanced scar management.
Cutting-edge energy-based devices At Self London, we offer some of the most advanced acne treatment technology available, ensuring that our patients receive the best care without needing referrals to other clinics. Our state-of-the-art energy-based devices are proven to effectively treat active acne and acne scarring.
Here’s what we offer:
- Fractional and fully ablative lasers: Using erbium:YAG and CO2 lasers, we provide the gold standard in acne scar removal. These lasers effectively resurface the skin by removing layers of damaged tissue, stimulating collagen production, and promoting the growth of new, healthy skin.
- Hybrid lasers like HALO: HALO is a cutting-edge treatment that combines the benefits of both ablative and non-ablative lasers. This dual approach offers powerful skin resurfacing with minimal downtime, making it ideal for improving skin texture and tone while treating acne scars.
- Radiofrequency microneedling: This innovative treatment combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to target deeper layers of the skin, promoting collagen production and significantly improving the appearance of acne scars. It is particularly effective for patients with more severe scarring when combined with other treatments such as the fractional lasers.
- BroadBand Light (BBL): BBL therapy is a versatile treatment that targets acne-causing bacteria, reduces inflammation, and improves post-acne pigmentation. It’s highly effective in clearing active acne and evening out skin tone, particularly from redness or discolouration left behind after inflammatory acne breakouts.
Advanced scar treatments Acne scars can be as distressing as acne itself, which is why Self London offers a range of advanced treatments specifically designed to reduce their appearance. Our clinic is equipped with the latest technology and techniques to treat all types of acne scars, ensuring comprehensive care that addresses every aspect of skin recovery.
- TCA CROSS: This treatment involves the precise application of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to ice-pick scars, stimulating collagen production and significantly improving the skin’s texture.
- Polynucleotides with subcision: Subcision is a minimally invasive procedure that releases the fibrous bands causing depressed scars. When combined with polynucleotides, which promote collagen production, this treatment offers significant improvements in the appearance of acne scars.
- In-house expertise: All these treatments are performed in-house by our team of experienced dermatologists, ensuring consistent, high-quality care throughout your treatment journey. Treating scars requires a multimodality approach and our team have experience in combining the right treatments for the right patient for the right indication.
AviClear: The future of acne treatment
Self London is proud to be one of the first clinics in Europe to offer AviClear, a groundbreaking laser treatment specifically designed to target acne at its source. AviClear is the world’s first FDA-cleared energy device for treating mild, moderate, and severe acne. This innovative technology has transformed acne treatment, offering patients an effective and safe solution for all skin types.
Dr. Mahto is a recognised key opinion leader for AviClear and has helped establish Self London as a global leader in the use of this cutting-edge technology. Our clinic’s success with AviClear has made us a top destination for patients seeking long-term solutions to their acne without the need for oral medication. We are recognised as one of the largest users of AviClear worldwide which means considerable experience on how to achieve best outcomes for acne.
AviClear works by selectively targeting the sebaceous glands, reducing oil production and preventing the formation of new acne lesions. This laser treatment is ideal for patients who have not responded well to traditional treatments or who are looking for a non-invasive, medication-free solution.
Holistic approach: Addressing the whole person
At Self London, we recognise that acne is not just a physical condition—it can have a significant impact on your mental health and overall well-being. That’s why we offer a holistic approach to acne treatment, addressing the root causes of the condition while also supporting your mental and emotional health.
Mental health support Acne can take a toll on self-esteem and mental health, which is why we provide in-house mental health support as part of our comprehensive care. Our team includes qualified professionals who can help you manage the psychological challenges that often accompany chronic skin conditions, ensuring that you receive the emotional support you need throughout your treatment journey.
Nutritional counselling Diet plays a crucial role in skin health, and at Self London, we integrate nutritional counselling into our treatment plans. Drawing on Dr. Mahto’s interest and qualification in nutritional science and working together with a specialist dietitian, we provide personalised advice to help you manage your acne from the inside out.
