Acne Treatment Service in Bow, East London
Acne is a common skin condition that can affect people of all ages, showing up as spots, blackheads, whiteheads or inflamed skin. We offer professional acne treatment at our pharmacy in Bow, London, in a confidential and welcoming environment.
Located on Roman Road in Bow, East London, our experienced healthcare team can assess your symptoms and discuss the right treatment options for your skin without you having to wait for a routine GP appointment.
Acne Treatment Options Available
Acne varies in severity, so treatment is tailored to you. Depending on your symptoms, this might include benzoyl peroxide or adapalene-based treatments, medicated washes, or other options available following a consultation. Our team will talk you through what’s available and help you settle on the right plan for your skin.
Over-the-Counter vs Prescription Acne Treatments
Some acne treatments are available over the counter, while others — such as topical antibiotics or stronger retinoids — need a private prescription. If you’re after prescription acne treatment without going through a GP, we can arrange this privately and explain what each option involves before you commit.
