Acne scars are painful reminders of an adolescence spent struggling with blemished skin. Now that you’re an adult, it seems that those years haunt you, every time you look in the mirror. But you may also suffer from adult acne on your body.
If you’re less than confident because of the scarring left by acne or body acne, you’re probably hoping to find a solution that doesn’t involve surgery.
If you’re wondering about acne treatment with laser, the answer is “yes”. There are non-invasive options now available. For acne scars on your face and adult acne on the body, Ethos Aesthetics + Wellness has the technology to improve your skin’s appearance and boost your confidence.
Fraxel and PicoSure.
For those ready to do something about acne scars, these two laser treatments are FDA-approved solutions.
Fraxel employs fractional lasers which stimulate the production of collagen in the skin. The effect is a smoother appearance. Acne scars, lines, wrinkles and age spots can all be drastically improved with this therapy.
PicoSure, also a laser-based treatment, is another excellent therapeutic tool for improving the appearance of acne scars, hyperpigmentation and other skincare challenges. The technology works by slowly removing layers of skin, allowing new skin to be revealed.
Treating adult body acne.
Levulan BLU-U is a laser-based acne treatment which is also capable of addressing scarring. Employing blue light, this therapy targets sebaceous glands which are over-producing oil. It also addresses bacteria which may be at the heart of your acne problem.
Who’s a candidate?
For two of these three therapeutic answers to acne and acne scarring, anyone who’s interested in improving the appearance of their skin is a candidate.
In the case of PicoSure, it’s important that you consult with us prior to proceeding. People with darker skin tones may find that the treatment provokes hyperpigmentation, so talking to a knowledgeable professional to gain an accurate assessment of the treatment’s suitability is a pre-requisite.
If PicoSure isn’t the right solution, Fraxel will probably be the right therapy for those who wish to minimize the appearance of acne scars. In the case of Levulan, most people are adaptable to the treatment.
Acne treatment with laser? Yes!
Laser therapy is a highly effective response to most instances of acne and acne scarring which requires no anesthesia, because it’s non-invasive. Laser treatments for the skin are also safe. Ensuring that you visit a licensed, highly-trained practitioner is your assurance that treatments will be successful.
