Laser is an emerging technology for treating acne.

Intense Pulsed Light laser shrinks the sebaceous glands and treats acne by stopping the production of sebum. It is sebum that is blocked by the dead skin and fills a pimple. This sebum then gets infected and the pimple becomes inflamed. By removing/destroying the sebaceous gland, laser removes the root cause of acne. Side effects are very mild and temporary and include- redness, swelling etc.

Lasers help to reduce the inflammation and redness that surrounds acne lesions. Laser treatments also remove the damaged outer layers of skin so that new cell growth can be initiated. Our laser technician will vary the intensity of the laser as required to effectively treat the area. This is a desirable acne treatment method because it has few side effects. It's simple, only slightly uncomfortable and doesn't involve the use of messy creams or potentially dangerous prescription drugs.

Pimples and acne are a widely recognised problem that all individuals encounter at least once in their lifetime. For many others, facial scars, acne scarring and blemishes profoundly impact on their self-confidence and contentment. Laser and intense pulsed light (IPL) treatments can provide an effective acne treatment, as well a permanent solution to scarring.

People find current treatment options ineffective and others develop problematic side effects. Additionally, the cost and duration of acne treatment with topical medications and oral antibiotics make standard therapy far from ideal.

Acne Solutions

Now, you can clear mild to moderate inflammatory acne without any side effects, discomfort, photosensitivity or downtime.

Acne Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments utilise a high intensity light source to penetrate through the tissue and destroy acne bacteria quickly and easily.

Typically, just 4 -6 treatments over a two month period will greatly improve the appearance of skin as well as evening out skin tone and producing collagen.

What to Expect after Treatment

The treatment is non-invasive, with full-face treatments taking only 20-30 minutes. A therapist will conduct a thorough consultation and skin analysis to determine if the IPL skin treatment is suitable.
Clients simply lie on a comfortable bed while the light is applied to the affected area. The  Medicam IPL pulse feels like a sharp stinging sensation. Once the treatment session is over, the therapist will advise of any after-care and an aftercare sheet will be provided. The IPL skin treatment means minimal downtime or inconvenience, an especially important factor for active teens and adults.

Results after Treatment

The IPL skin treatment effectively clears most inflammatory acne in a 4-6 visits. More than 80% clients at The Europeanhave noticed a considerable reduction or elimination in the appearance of their acne. Moreover, the skin appears replenished and rejuvenated with a more even skintone and texture.
