LightPod lasers’ light-based therapy offers an effective, alternative treatment approach for all acne patients of any age or skin type, but also for patients who have not responded to traditional therapies and for those patients who either cannot take or who do not want to take oral medications.

 

The gentle laser light superheats the p. acnes bacteria in the sebaceous gland and surrounding skin to effectively destroy the bacteria, reduce oil and sebum output and to help reduce swelling and inflammation.

 

Many patients report less irritation and dry skin directly after treatment compared to the waiting period commonly experienced following oral medications as they adjust the body’s chemistry. This offers patients relief, which is highly important for patients with severe cases.
