ACNE TREATMENTS
Effective, painless, drug-free alternative
Our acne treatments use a combination of light energy to target the skin in 3 ways:
1 - Blue light energy produces free radicals inside infected oil glads. This helps destroy any bacteria in the lesion.
2 - Yellow light energy coagulates the lesion feeding blood vessels to accelerate healing.
3 - Infrared light dries out the lesion.
Each treatment also helps decrease redness and pitted scaring associated with acne by renewing collagen.
For optimal results treatments are to be performed twice a week for 6-8 weeks.
Available for skin type 1-5
