At GLOJAS Aesthetic Clinic Kuala Lumpur, we offer personalized, doctor-led acne treatment programs designed to target the root causes of acne and restore long-term skin clarity. Whether you’re dealing with hormonal acne, cystic breakouts, blackheads, or post-acne scars, our MOH-registered clinic delivers safe, proven results tailored to your skin.
Acne is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages, especially teenagers and young adults. It typically appears on the face, but can also develop on the chest, back, shoulders, and other parts of the body. Acne occurs when pores become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria—leading to breakouts, blackheads, whiteheads, or painful cysts.
Mild to moderate acne (whiteheads, blackheads, papules, pustules)
Severe acne (nodules, cysts)
Hormonal acne (typically along jawline or chin)
Adult-onset acne
Post-acne pigmentation and scarring
Benzoyl Peroxide
Kills acne-causing bacteria and reduces inflammation. Best for mild to moderate acne, especially pustules and papules.
Salicylic Acid (BHA)
Exfoliates inside the pores to remove excess oil and dead skin. Ideal for blackheads and whiteheads.
Retinoids (Adapalene, Tretinoin)
Promote cell turnover, unclog pores, and reduce acne formation. Also help with post-acne marks and scarring.
Azelaic Acid
Reduces bacteria, inflammation, and pigmentation. Gentle enough for sensitive or rosacea-prone skin.
Topical Antibiotics (Clindamycin, Erythromycin)
Used for bacterial control in inflamed acne. Often combined with benzoyl peroxide for better results.
Oral Antibiotics (Doxycycline, Minocycline)
Reduce inflammation and bacterial activity in moderate to severe acne.
Hormonal Therapy (Oral Contraceptives, Spironolactone)
Used for hormonal acne in women. Helps regulate sebum production by balancing androgens.
Isotretinoin (Accutane)
A powerful treatment for severe or cystic acne. It shrinks oil glands and prevents new breakouts long-term. Requires medical monitoring.
Chemical Peels (Salicylic, Glycolic, TCA)
Remove dead skin layers and help unclog pores. Also improve acne scars and pigmentation.
Laser Therapy (Blue Light, Fractional, Q-Switched)
Kills acne bacteria and reduces inflammation. Some lasers also treat acne scars.
LED Light Therapy (Blue & Red Light)
Non-invasive treatment that reduces bacteria (blue) and calms inflammation (red).
Microneedling / RF Microneedling
Stimulates collagen to treat post-acne scars and improve skin texture.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
Natural treatment using your own blood plasma to regenerate and heal acne scars.
HydraFacial or Aqua Peel
Deep cleanses pores and delivers targeted serums, ideal for blackheads and dull skin.
Steroid Injections
Used to quickly reduce large, inflamed cysts or nodules within 24–48 hours.
Non-comedogenic products
Prevent pores from clogging — especially moisturisers, sunscreen, and makeup.
Gentle cleansing twice daily
Helps remove oil and debris without over-stripping the skin barrier.
Oil-free and fragrance-free formulas
Especially important for sensitive or acne-prone skin.
Balanced diet
Reducing high-glycemic foods, dairy, and processed sugar may lower inflammation and breakouts.
Hydration & sleep
Drinking enough water and maintaining regular sleep helps skin repair itself.
Stress management
Yoga, breathing exercises, and regular physical activity may help reduce stress-induced acne.
Avoid touching or picking the skin
Prevents further irritation and scarring.
Chemical peels use medical-grade acids such as salicylic acid, glycolic acid, or TCA to exfoliate dead skin, unclog pores, and reduce active acne and post-inflammatory pigmentation. Light peels are ideal for active breakouts, while medium-depth peels target acne scars and rough texture.
Lasers like Blue Light, Q-Switched, or Fractional CO2 are used to:
Kill acne-causing bacteria
Shrink oil glands
Reduce redness and inflammation
They are suitable for patients with inflamed acne, oily skin, and even resistant hormonal acne.
A gentle, non-invasive treatment using blue light to destroy Cutibacterium acnes (acne bacteria) and red light to calm inflammation. LED therapy is suitable as a standalone or combination treatment for mild to moderate acne.
Microneedling creates micro-injuries that trigger collagen production — ideal for acne scar revision. RF microneedling adds radiofrequency energy to improve skin tightening and deeper scar improvement.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses your own blood plasma to promote skin healing and tissue repair. It’s commonly combined with microneedling to treat acne scars, improve texture, and stimulate collagen naturally.
At GLOJAS aesthetic clinic with medical doctors, prescription medications may be offered as part of a combination treatment plan:
Oral antibiotics (e.g. doxycycline)
Hormonal therapy for women
Isotretinoin (Accutane) for severe acne (with monitoring)
For acne scarring, clinics may provide:
CO2 Fractional Laser
TCA CROSS for deep icepick scars
Subcision for rolling scars
These treatments aim to smooth the skin surface and improve scar appearance over time.

My acne was painful and kept coming back. Dr. Venu created a personalised treatment plan and my skin cleared up so much within a few weeks!
Tried everything before seeing Dr. Muya. She really understood my skin. The results were gradual but long-lasting. Thank you!
I had hormonal acne and nothing worked until I met Dr. Kiv. Professional, friendly and effective. My face has never looked better!
Dr. Venu explained the causes of my acne and gave step-by-step solutions. Super clear instructions and visible improvement in just one month.
I did chemical peels and some medication under Dr. Muya. It took time, but my skin is smoother and my breakouts are gone. So grateful!
The acne scars were my biggest issue. Dr. Kiv did laser and topical treatment – now my skin tone is even and way less bumpy.
Dr. Venu is kind and thorough. He really listened and treated the root of my acne, not just the surface. Very satisfied.
My acne was getting worse with stress. Dr. Muya balanced my routine and offered in-clinic treatments. Now I barely get breakouts.
Was recommended to Dr. Kiv and glad I went. The clinic was spotless and the treatment was professional. Clear improvements in 2 sessions.
My skin was red and sensitive. Dr. Venu customised a treatment that calmed everything down without harsh meds. Highly recommend!
