Blemishes » Acne Photofacial

Attack current breakouts and prevent future blemishes with Intense Pulsed Light treatments. Destroys bacteria for a quick clearance of current breakouts and targets the hyperactive sebaceous glands to slow down sebum production to unplug pores and prevent future breakouts.

Topical creams and oral medications can be effective treatments for acne outbreaks, but they can be expensive and can dry and irritate sensitive skin. What’s more, acne that occurs on backs and chests can be difficult to treat topically because of the large surface area.

Treating acne with pulsed light can deliver better aesthetic results, especially on inflammatory acne, without the side effects associated with topical and oral acne medications.

Remedy’s acne phtofacials target and destroy the skin bacteria responsible for acne to help prevent future breakouts from occurring on faces, chests and backs. We use the finest technology for our acne procedures. The Palomar 500 technology delivers just the right amount of light in the right spot size for your treatment needs, while their Advanced Contact Cooling technology protects your skin.

How Does The Acne Photofacial Work?

Palomar’s IPL treatment for preventing future acne breakouts delivers a spectrum of light that is absorbed by porphyrins within skin, destroying P. acnes bacteria and inhibiting future acne breakouts. To treat acne scars, we use pulses of laser light to coagulate scar tissue and trigger healthy new tissue to form in clients’ skin.  Healing time is minimal, infection risk is eliminated and clients feel little to no pain.

Our medical team is among the most experienced in the country. Laqueta Gajewski, R.N. (pictured at left) has trained physicians and their teams from Seattle to San Diego to Hawaii. She is a highly sought after expert with this laser technology. Her experience and expertise are second-to-none.

Dr. Emery, Laqueta, and the rest of our team, have worked together to develop safe, effective protocols that consistently yield results for our clients. Schedule a free consultation to learn more.
