Acne Treatments in Tucson

LightPod lasers’ light-based therapy offers an effective, alternative treatment approach for all acne patients of any age or skin type, but it is particularly ideal for patients who either have not responded to traditional therapies or are unwilling or unable to take oral medications like isotretinoin.

There are a variety of benefits including:

• Reduced Inflammation – The laser energy helps to shut down blood vessels, blocking the inflammatory aspect of acne and reducing the pressure on the surrounding tissue. This alleviates pain and post-inflammatory redness.
• Destroys P.Acnes Bacteria – The laser energy destroys acne-causing bacteria in and on the skin to both clear existing lesions and prevent future breakouts. It also helps to reduce excess oil and sebum output from the sebaceous glands.
• Stimulates Collagen Growth – The deep-heating effect of the laser stimulates the growth of new collagen. This will not only help prevent acne scarring, but will also help smooth acne scars that have formed from previous breakouts, leaving your skin clear and healthy.
