Acne Care

Acne laser therapy is an effective way to treat acne. This gentle, safe treatment uses a laser to target overactive sebaceous glands in your skin – the root cause of acne. Medical lasers are safe and have been used for over 20 years to treat many medical and cosmetic skin conditions.

As the laser penetrates the skin, heat is generated in and around the sebaceous glands in the upper layers of the skin. The heat causes a mild thermal injury that changes the structure and function of the glands and patients will start to see a reduction in the number of acne lesions in the skin.

To treat acne Skin-thetics use a combined system of treatment. Thus giving a highly effective skin care routine incorporating specialised home care products and medically effective clinic treatments.
