About Acne
Almost everyone goes through a period of acne at one time or another. Although there are many types of acne, the most common is called acne vulgaris. Just below the surface of the skin lie hundreds of tiny glands called sebaceous glands. Their function is to collect sebum, to keep the skin healthy. However, the tiny pathway for the sebum to escape often becomes clogged, and a bacterium called p. acnes grows inside. In a short time, the area swells up, and forms a pimple on the skin. At certain times of life, this process becomes very active, troublesome and hard to control. There are many treatment options for acne and acne scarring.


Treatment Options

Blu-U Treatment
The Blu-U treatment is used to treat mild to moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris. The Blu-U, Light can be used alone or in combination with any treatment you are already using to control your acne. Treatments are done twice weekly for four weeks or once a week for eight weeks. Any skin type can be treated with no side effects, pain or discomfort.

PDT-PhotoDynamic Acne Therapy
PDT can be used in combination with Levulan (ALA), Blu-U and or IPL (Intense Pulsed Light ) for the effective treatment of acne. This procedure improves acne by minimizing the pores, reducing oil glands and destroying bacteria. Whether treating acne or sun damage, the process is very similar. The solution is applied topically (directly onto the skin) to targeted lesions. A light or laser source is then used to activate the solution “Levulan” and the targeted cells are destroyed.

ProFractional Laser Treatment
ProFractional uses laser energy to create thousands of microscopic channels in the skin, which are surrounded by areas of healthy, untreated skin. The zones of untreated skin invigorate the body’s natural healing process, and the treated areas stimulate production of new collagen, plumping up the skin and smoothing out acne scars, wrinkles, lines and other irregularities. Most skin areas can be treated. Popular areas are the face, neck, chest, back and hands.

Injectable Fillers
Injectable fillers can be used to raise sunken scars to the level of surrounding skin, decrease appearance wrinkles, lines, and furrows, as well as re-store collagen and facial volume. Treatments are quick and painless. Results are seen immediately and can last from 6 to 12 months, or up to 10 years using ArteSense. To cater to the patient’s individual needs we offer a wide variety of injectable fillers including: Teosyal, Radiesse, Restylane, Perlane & ArteSense.

Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a quick, safe and effective form of exfoliation for all skin types with no down time and virtually no discomfort. Laser-cut precision peel utilizes very powerful crystal free microdermabrasion system that gently exfoliates dead skin cells of the outermost layer (stratum cornium), resulting in a smoother skin surface. A series of treatments are recommended for best results.
