Light emitted directly targeting the overactive sebaceous glands, greatly
reducing the total number and severity of active lesions and lessening
the inflammation and occurrence of breakouts. The light stimulates the production of new collagen to improve skin texture, scarring and can also reduce the appearance of red or brown areas of skin that are often associated with acne breakouts.
Treatment is mildly uncomfortable but there is no need for anaesthesia and the procedure is actually quite quick. Sensations vary but most describe it as a very quick hot pin prick.
The number of sessions required varies from client to client dependant on many factors. Though results can been seen after a few treatments, a minimum of 4 and
up to 8 treatments, at 4-week
intervals, deliver the best results.
Almost everyone can be treated, apart from tanned individuals. If you are pregnant or taking Roaccutane
(an acne medication) it is best not to undergo treatment until you have been off the medication for a minimum of 6 months.
You may experience a superficial tingling feeling on the skin and you
may see a darkening of pigment spots before they flake away. This means the treatment has worked providing you with a more
even, flawless and brighter skin tone. Following your treatment you will notice clearer, healthier skin and you will also experience
an ongoing improvement to
the firmness and plumpness of your skin. this is because in the following months post-treatment
new collagen is stimulated
deep within the skin tissue.
