Look in the mirror and finally love what’s looking back at you. Our advanced treatments not only remove your acne but also give you back the confidence you desire.

Acne treatments require specific lasers which target the bacteria that are infecting follicles, eliminating the infection without the need for antibiotics or medications like Accutane. A specialized BlueLight can also be used for this purpose. With the infection now in retreat, we use 1 or 2 additional lasers to shut down the inflammation that often accompanies acne and cystic acne. This will reduce swelling and remove redness and pigmentation.

What to expect:

At your complimentary consultation, our patient educators will advise you on the acne treatment and/or cystic acne treatment you will be receiving and give you a detailed step-by-step outline of the procedure. You will also be advised of the proper pre and post-treatment skincare instructions.

After your acne treatment, expect to have some degree of redness, ranging from a mild “sunburn” pink to a deep red (depending on your skin type and skin sensitivity). Patients are photo-sensitive to sunlight for up to 48 hours following treatment. During this time it is advisable to stay indoors and out of direct or indirect sunlight. Skin peeling and crusting is expected for several days after the acne treatment. During the first week, a strict skincare regimen must be adhered to for proper healing and optimal results.

In cases where the patient also suffers from existing acne scarring, sun damage, age spots, rosacea and wrinkles, Photodynamic acne treatments can be customized along with other specialized protocols such as the various procedures incorporated into The Spectra™-Lift.
