Acne Treatments and Skin Rejuvenation Therapy
Light therapy for acne is a gentle, non chemical approach to fighting acne. Our system provides two light sources to create a synergistic approach to healing acne and rejuvenating the skin. The blue light is 100% natural and works by killing bacteria found in acne. Coupled with red LED Photomodulation treatments to encourage cellular turnover in the skin and reduce scarring, acne treatments are safe for all ages, painless, and have no side effects.
Blue light acne therapy is a totally safe, and painless way to naturally treat acne. It is FDA approved to treat the rapidly reproducing bacteria of the persistent P. Acnes, and acne vulgaris strain. Continued use is recommended as acne is an ongoing process. The Laser Hair & Skin Center system utilizes both the red and blue light therapies to treat acne while healing acne scars and hyperpigmentations that occur with the disease.
The red light photomodulation system also helps to restore existing collagen, therefore reducing wrinkles, and giving the skin a more radiant and youthful appearance. The system also helps to increase cellular turnover, and in turn, improves sun damaged skin, giving it a smooth appearance and texture.
Photomodulation is an FDA approved method, using Light Emitting Diodes (LED) to treat the skin, and is a completely safe and painless method for skin rejuvenation. No heat is used, and there is NO down time.
What should I expect?
Patients can rest comfortably in a chair while a technician guides the hand piece over the face. Aloe gel is used to facilitate the gliding of the hand piece over the skin. The red light is simply directed onto the face during the entire treatment.
How many treatments do I need?
Because skin aging is a continual process, a series of treatments is needed to get skin looking great and continual treatments would be necessary to maintain the skin’s healthier appearance.
How often should I do a treatment?
A customized plan will be developed to suit your needs. Typically one to two treatments per week is suitable.
When will I see results?
Each individual varies but generally most patients see results in 6 to 8 treatments. Maintenance is required to keep skin looking great.
What precautions should be taken before or after treatment?
The light therapy is completely natural and can be used in conjunction with other forms of skin treatments, however we ask that you please arrive with a clean face, free of makeup. Patients can wash their face immediately following treatment and are able to apply makeup and continue their daily activities.
