Full Face Laser Acne Treatment

Service Description

We all experience acne at one point or another, typically in our teen and young adult years, and for most of us, these acne issues go away. But some of us are left with acne problems that last much longer than we would like, leaving us to deal with anywhere from mild to severe acne conditions that can bother us for years. If you feel like you have tried everything, there may be one more treatment that might just be your solution. Photo -facial is the general term for skin treatments that utilize light-based technology. The science behind light-based treatments is simple, although most patients may find it confusing the first time. IPL photo facial utilizes the body’s natural healing processes to create significant changes to the targeted area. The treatment releases a set of different pulsed light wavelengths, similar to the flash of a photo- Scattered intense pulsed light can penetrate to deeper layers of the skin beneath acne without causing damage to the top layer. With just a few sessions, IPL treatments can clear up even the most extreme cases of facial acne and/or acne scarring. With alternatives like oral antibiotics that can be harmful to some patients, IPL therapy is a safe and easy option for acne removal. How does it work? When the pulses touch the skin, the energy is absorbed by pigment cells and turns into heat. This heat beneath the surface of the skin can destroy spots and the bacteria that may be causing the patient’s acne. When dealing with acne, IPL photo facials treatments generally utilize three filters or wavelengths: 420 nm or blue light, 560 nm of yellow light, and 590 nm of red light. These three filters provide their own properties: 420 nm (blue light): Destroying certain acne bacteria 560 nm (yellow light): Tending swollen acne lesions 590 nm (red light): Paralyzing overactive oil glands in the skin Patients can expect to see some improvements after their first treatment, but full results won’t start to become visible until after the first few treatments are done and they are several weeks into their treatments. To maximize your recovery, follow the following tips: Use lotion to moisturize the skin daily Wash the face a few times a day with cleanser If the skin is in pain, don’t apply makeup Always use sunscreen with at least an SPF of 30 if you plan to go outside to avoid sun damage, as sun damage is very harmful to the skin
