What is Acne?

How Acne Forms

    1. Oil and Dead Skin: Overproduction of oil and accumulation of dead skin cells clog pores.
    2. Bacterial Growth: This clog becomes a breeding ground for bacteria, leading to inflammation and pimples.
Key Takeaway
Overactive sebaceous glands are at the root of most acne concerns. The Fotona acne laser treatment effectively reduces the activity of sebaceous glands, significantly minimizing the occurrence of acne. 

Fotona Laser vs. Traditional Acne Treatments

The Fotona acne laser treatment stands out with:

  • Targeted Precision: Directly addresses overactive sebaceous glands, reducing oil production without harming surrounding skin.
  • Minimal Downtime: Get back to your day-to-day activities almost immediately, thanks to its non-invasive approach.
  • Lasting Results: Enjoy clearer skin for longer, with effects designed to prevent future breakouts.

Moving Beyond Traditional Methods

Traditional acne treatments often come with drawbacks, such as prolonged treatment courses, potential skin irritation, serious side effects, and variable results. Fotona’s laser technology transcends these limitations, offering a scientifically advanced solution to acne and skin rejuvenation.

Your Fotona Acne Laser Treatment Experience

Initial Consultation

Treatment begins with a thorough consultation, including a skin assessment to tailor the approach to each individual’s needs. This personalized plan ensures the most effective use of the Fotona acne laser treatment for your specific concerns and skin type.

A Typical Treatment Session Involves:

  • Cleansing the skin to remove any makeup, oil, or debris.
  • The treatment involves a comfortable warm sensation and takes about 30 minutes, with some mild post-treatment redness.
  • Post-treatment care instructions, focusing on hydration and sun protection.

Most treatment plans require multiple sessions, spaced a few weeks apart, for optimal results. 

Post-Treatment Care:

After the Fotona acne laser session, expect mild redness, resembling a sunburn, which subsides quickly. Results will begin to show at week 1 or week 2, noticing diminishing signs of any acne, acne scarring, or rosacea.
