Summary by Danna Schneider, edited by Ferdinand Rinaldy

There are always new ways to treat acne coming out as the latest and greatest method to treat acne and smooth the skin out to its pre-acne days. Others, like acne laser treatment, are a truly effective and proven way to clear acne, help mend the skin, and help heal scarring and existing acne lesions.

How Does Acne Laser Treatment Treat Scarring and Acne at the Same Time

Home acne lasers actually emit a low, constant frequency of red light which helps to stimulate collagen, making scarring less visible, and helping to stimulate the healing of existing acne, and speed the whole recovery process.

One particular medical grade home acne laser treatment that uses this technology had the following to report:

1. The home laser device was found to be an effective treatment for acne in the inflammatory stage.

The positive results depended largely on consistency and continuity of treatment.

2. After 6 Weeks of Laser Treatment:

20% of the patients were completely healed.

You can achieve even greater and faster success when combining an oral remedy for acne and the laser.

Summary by Tanya Curry

Almost any visible light source can be used, including narrow-band light sources such as the ClearLight and Blu-U, assorted IPL devices (broadband light) copper vapor lasers, pulse dye lasers and various orange/red light lasers or light sources. Many researches have proven that to get good results of acne laser treatment combining the use of the pulsed dye technology with carbon dioxide laser vaporization can turn out to be an efficient way in treating scars. Usually two or more treatments are needed for cystic acne scars. The main reason for the increasing demand of acne laser treatment is its safety factor because acne laser treatment eliminates the risks of prolonged antibiotic use and retinoid therapy can be avoided, as well as the expense and inconvenience of prolonged topical treatments, acne medications, creams, gels, etc. Whether or not acne laser treatments should be used as first-line treatment for acne, or even for prevention of acne, remains unclear at this time.
