Smoothbeam Laser Treatment for Acne in Burbank
Acne Scar Removal in Los Angeles
Acne can leave its mark for years in the form of scarring, pockmarks and other skin blemishes. While some skin resurfacing treatments like Chemical Peels and IPL can improve the appearance of acne scars, we have found that Smoothbeam is also effective in stimulating the skin to rebuild and replenish its own natural collagen, filling in acne scars and improving overall skin appearance from within.
In addition, Smoothbeam is more comfortable than most other acne treatments because it does not remove, cut or damage the surface skin. In fact, the surface skin remains cool while the laser energy is focused on the deeper dermis.
Fast Facts On Smoothbeam Laser Acne Treatment
- Number of Treatments Required - In general, 4 to 6 treatment sessions will be scheduled, with the exact number depending on the severity of active acne or acne scars and how well the acne responds to each treatment.
- Treatment Interval - Initial sessions will be spaced out about 2 weeks apart, and then 1 month apart once active breakouts have been controlled. In between each treatment you should see gradual improvement - a decrease in active acne and/or less noticeable acne scars.
- Treatment Time - Each acne treatment session will last about 20 minutes, slightly longer if a larger area such as the back is being treated.
- Recovery Time - Mild redness is seen immediately after treatment, but this typically subsides within a few hours. Makeup may be applied immediately.
- Results - Laser therapy for acne is an effective solution for painful, active acne as well as the scars it leaves behind. Acne improves and scars can diminish greatly after a series of treatments. Keep in mind that results will vary from patient to patient.
- Real Patient Story - "Miracles are hard to come by, but in my world, Smoothbeam is one. It's a heartbreaking thing to have a gorgeous daughter so covered in zits that her skin was like sandpaper. For 10 years, we tried everything, every doctor, every scary medicine, you name it. My girl has gone off to Oxford with clear skin, renewed hope and high self-esteem. A miracle! A thousand thanks!!" - C.L.
