Treatment Laser Treatment for Acne and Acne Scars Achieve Clear and Even Skin
Acne: What is it?
Acne is a common skin condition that affects many people during their life. Many factors can contribute to this complex and perpetual cycle, leading to hormonal fluctuations that stimulate oil production. This phenomenon is more common among teenagers, but it can affect people of all ages, with varying degrees of severity. Too often, those affected pick at their pimples and imperfections because of their unsightly appearance. Unfortunately, this habit can increase inflammation and, in extreme cases, leave permanent scars.
How can laser treatment help clear my acne?
Fotona's laser treatment reduces acne inflammation through photo-selective absorption and a controlled heating system. The laser safely penetrates the skin to reach an optimal treatment depth, allowing for the thermal destruction of overactive sebaceous glands. Additionally, the treatment accelerates the healing process and stimulates collagen remodeling, a crucial step in long-term acne treatment.
What if I have acne scars?
Fotona's laser treatment is ideal for promoting the disappearance of mild scars. It safely and effectively penetrates the skin to gently resurface acne-marked skin, helping to improve its texture and color. Unlike chemical exfoliations and dermabrasion, laser skin resurfacing allows the practitioner to precisely control the depth of laser penetration. The laser delicately vaporizes thin layers, less than 1 micron thick, from the acne-marked surface to reveal the healthy, intact skin beneath.
