The best candidate is someone who has acne and/or acne-related inflammation on the face or body and is seeking a treatment similar to acne light therapy.

For safety reasons, you may not be able to get this treatment if you have/are:

• Metal or other implants in the treatment area

• Current or history of cancer

• Pregnant or nursing

• Any diseases that can be stimulated by light (e.g. epilepsy)

• History of disease that can be stimulated by heat (e.g. herpes)

• Poorly controlled endocrine disorders (e.g. diabetes or polycystic ovary syndrome)

• Any active condition in the treatment area (e.g. eczema, psoriasis, rash)

• History of skin disorders, keloids, unusual wound healing, or excessively dry and/or sensitive skin

• Any surgical procedures within the past 3 months

• A tattoo or permanent makeup in the treatment area

• Excessively tanned skin

These acne treatments work best for light to medium skin tones. The treatment may work on darker skin, but there is a higher risk of discoloration because darker skin has more pigment in it. It’s best to consult with your treatment provider to see if the treatment is right for you.

Most patients receive a total of 6-8 treatments.

There is no downtime. You can return to your daily schedule immediately after your treatment.
