Forever Clear BBL® gets rid of acne at the speed of light! Drugs and other over-the-counter “remedies” can be a thing of the past. Why deal with the wait and potential side effects of those options when you can have clearer skin in typically just a few short treatments? Skin is first treated with blue BBL light to eliminate acne-causing bacteria at its source, deep down in the pores. Skin is then treated with yellow BBL light to reduce inflammation and acne-associated redness to give you healthy, luminous skin. For added benefit, the skin is then treated with SkinTyte® using infrared light in rapid, gentle pulses to initiate the body’s natural healing process. Our aestheticians will create a customized treatment plan with you; including follow-up laser treatments and a personalized skin care regimen. Our goal is to keep your skin looking and feeling healthy.
Book OnlineWhat is a Laser Acne Treatment?
We tend to learn at an early age that first impressions are powerful. Acne can make first impressions difficult. Patients with acne can have papules or infected cysts on their face, collarbone, upper back, shoulder blades, chest, and arms. Acne can significantly impact a person’s life in many ways, both physical and emotional. If you find that prescriptions, gels, or lotions can’t provide relief, acne laser treatment could make a difference. Many of our Minooka and Tinley Park, IL patients notice vast improvements in their acne after receiving laser treatments. We encourage you to call and request additional information about our laser acne procedures and schedule an appointment.
What Can I Expect During a Laser Acne Treatment?
Our skin care professionals will begin by cleaning your face and may give you eye protection to wear during the procedure. During the half-hour session, we guide the laser across the skin to extract blackheads and eliminate acne-causing bacteria. You will likely experience a little irritation during the procedure; many patients describe a mild stinging sensation. Laser acne treatment helps renew your skin for a better complexion.
You may notice a little redness, swelling, and mild skin sensitivity after your session. We may recommend not using skin care products on the treated area for about a day after. You should also avoid any lengthy sun exposure. Patients will often see results after a day or two. We can determine the number of treatments you need depending on the severity of your acne. Generally, patients require three to six sessions to see smoother skin.
