Nodular and Cystic Acne:

Deep, painful, large breakouts under the skin. This is the most severe form and can cause significant scarring if not treated early. Requires prescription-level medical treatment.

Type 04

Hormonal Acne

Cyclical breakouts that worsen around menstruation, linked to PCOS or thyroid issues. Predominantly affects women and typically appears along the jaw, chin and lower cheeks. Very common in Nagpur - and very treatable with the right hormonal evaluation and personalised acne treatment approach.

Type 05

Acne for Oily Face

Patients with an oil-prone complexion tend to produce excess sebum, increasing the risk of clogged pores, blackheads, and acne breakouts. Successful acne treatment in Nagpur requires a customised approach that focuses on sebum control, pore purification, and strengthening the complexion's natural protective barrier.

Root Causes

Common Causes of Acne

Dr. Shruti always identifies the root cause before recommending any treatment. The most common causes of acne seen in Nagpur patients:

Hormonal Imbalance

Excess androgens, PCOS, thyroid disorders and menstrual irregularities trigger sebum overproduction and breakouts. This is the number one cause of hormonal acne treatment cases we see in Nagpur.

Diet and Gut Health

High sugar intake, dairy, refined carbohydrates and poor gut microbiome health are strongly linked to acne. Nagpur's food culture - rich in spicy, fried and sweet foods - plays a role.

Pollution and Climate

Nagpur's hot, humid and dusty environment clogs pores faster. Many patients notice increased breakouts in summer or after extended time outdoors.

Wrong skincare products causing acne — acne cosmetica heavy creams

Wrong Facial care Products

Using products not suited to your complexion type - especially heavy creams, coconut oil or certain sunscreens - can cause or worsen acne. This is called acne cosmetica.

Stress

Chronic stress elevates cortisol, which in turn increases sebum production and face inflammation - fueling acne.

Genetic causes of acne — family history hereditary acne

Genetics

If one or both parents had acne, you are at a higher risk. Genetic acne tends to be more severe and persistent.

Medications

Certain medications including steroids and some contraceptives can trigger or worsen acne as a side effect.

Our Treatments

Acne Treatments at Cleaura Clinic Nagpur

Dr. Shruti Gunashekhar offers a complete, medically supervised range of acne treatments - from mild pimple control to severe cystic acne management:

Prescription Medical Therapy

Topical retinoids, antibiotics, and oral medications including hormonal therapy are prescribed based on acne type and severity. This is the foundation of effective acne treatment.

Chemical Peels for Acne

Superficial to medium-depth peels using salicylic acid, glycolic acid or combination acids to unclog pores, reduce active acne and fade post-acne marks. One of the most effective treatments for acne on oily face.

Laser Treatment for Acne

Advanced laser therapy reduces active bacterial infection, controls sebum production and reduces the redness and inflammation of acne lesions. Also effective for preventing new breakouts.

Carbon Laser Peel (Hollywood Peel)

A popular treatment for oily and acne-prone face. Carbon particles are applied to the face and then activated with a Q-switched laser, deeply cleansing pores, reducing acne bacteria and improving face texture in a single session.

Acne Scar Treatment

For patients who already have post-acne marks, ice pick scars, rolling scars or hyperpigmentation, we offer microneedling with PRP, laser resurfacing, chemical peels and combination therapies.

Comedone Extraction and Acne Facials

Professional extraction of blackheads, whiteheads and congested pores - done hygienically under clinical conditions to prevent scarring and secondary infection.

Acne-Prone Complexion Types

Acne-Prone Complexion Types - Which One Are You?

Not all acne is the same - and treating it the wrong way can make things worse. Identifying your complexion type is the first step toward effective, targeted acne care.

Oil-Prone Complexion + Acne

Too much oil leads to clogged pores and blackheads - especially in Nagpur's humid weather. Treatment includes chemical peels, laser therapy, and oil-free medicated facial care. Cleaura offers specialised acne treatment for oil-prone complexions in Nagpur..

Dry Complexion + Acne

Dry complexion can still break out. Using harsh acne products removes moisture, causing face to produce even more oil. The right treatment balances acne control with hydration and barrier support.

Combination Complexion + Acne

Oily T-zone, dry or normal cheeks. Very common in Nagpur's climate. Needs different treatment for different areas of the face - not one product for all.

Sensitive Complexion + Acne

Easily irritated by most acne products. Requires a gentle, careful approach. A professional facial assessment in Nagpur helps avoid further damage and get the right treatment.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Have more questions? Dr. Shruti Gunashekhar's team is available for a personalised consultation to address your specific concerns.

What is the best acne treatment in Nagpur?

The best acne treatment depends on your acne type, cause, and severity. At Cleaura Clinic in Nagpur, Dr. Shruti creates personalised plans using prescription therapy, chemical peels, and laser treatment. A free consultation helps determine the right option for your face.

Which doctor is best for acne treatment in Nagpur?

Dr. Shruti Gunashekhar at Cleaura Clinic is a Canadian Board-Certified Aesthetic Physician with international training. She specialises in medically supervised acne treatment for all complexion types and acne causes in Nagpur.

Can acne be permanently cured?

Acne can be fully controlled and often permanently resolved with the right treatment. Hormonal, dietary, and stress-related acne can be treated at the root cause. Chronic or genetic acne can be managed long-term. Early treatment gives the best results.

What causes jawline and chin acne in women?

Jawline and chin acne in women is often linked to hormonal factors such as PCOS, irregular menstrual cycles, or elevated androgen levels. Effective treatment requires a combination of hormonal management and targeted acne therapies. Dr. Shruti at Cleaura Clinic, Nagpur, addresses both aspects through a comprehensive and personalised treatment plan.

How long does acne treatment take to show results?

Most patients see visible improvement within 4 to 8 weeks. Chemical peels and laser sessions show results after the first few sessions. Full clearance typically takes 3 to 6 months, depending on acne severity.

What is the difference between acne and pimples?

Pimples are individual spots that appear occasionally. Acne is a persistent face condition involving multiple pimples, blackheads, cysts, or nodules. If breakouts keep returning or leave marks, it's acne - and it needs medical treatment, not just spot creams.

How do I get rid of acne scars in Nagpur?

Acne scars need different treatment from active acne. At Cleaura Clinic, acne scar treatment in Nagpur includes laser resurfacing, microneedling, and chemical peels - depending on scar type and depth. Early treatment of active acne is the best way to prevent scarring.

Does stress cause acne?

Yes. Stress triggers cortisol production, which increases oil (sebum) production and worsens breakouts. This is one of the most overlooked acne causes. Managing stress alongside medical treatment significantly improves results - which is why Cleaura's treatment plans address lifestyle factors too.

Is acne treatment safe for teenagers?

Yes. Cleaura Clinic offers teenage acne treatment in Nagpur using age-appropriate, clinically safe methods. Early treatment is recommended to prevent permanent acne scarring.

Does diet cause acne?

Yes. Sugar, dairy, refined carbohydrates, and fried or spicy foods are common acne triggers. At Cleaura Clinic, dietary guidance is included in every acne treatment plan in Nagpur.

What is hormonal acne and how is it treated?

Hormonal acne is caused by androgen fluctuations that increase oil production and clog pores. It is common in women with PCOS, during menstruation, or perimenopause. Treatment at Cleaura combines hormonal therapy with aesthetic care for lasting results.

Can I wear makeup during acne treatment?

Yes, with the right products. Dr. Shruti advises using non-comedogenic, mineral-based, or breathable makeup during treatment. Avoiding heavy foundations helps face heal faster and reduces breakouts.

What is the cost of acne treatment in Nagpur?

The cost of acne treatment in Nagpur at Cleaura Clinic varies by treatment type and number of sessions. All pricing is transparent with no hidden charges. A free consultation includes a full cost breakdown.
