Acne

Aerolase NeoClear and GentleMax Pro are medical aesthetic lasers offering patients of all ages and skin types a safe, effective, and comfortable treatment for acne using advanced 650-microsecond technology. Both use powerful acne treatments that eliminate the major factors causing acne including excess sebum production, inflammation, and the p. acnes bacteria. Previously, many different treatments, medications, or skin care options were required to address these factors, but the NeoClear and the GentleMax Pro can achieve this with a single device. There are no side effects, it’s very tolerable for patients, and the results can be seen quickly – in as little as a single treatment. The NeoClear or the GentleMax Pro are excellent options for patients that do not want to take prescription medications or are unable to. Plus, with increasing prescription costs, this treatment is an excellent, cost-effective solution for patients’ acne problems.

How does it work? The unique settings of these devices allow energy to penetrate deeply into the skin within a highly safe and tolerable pulse to reduce sebum production, suppress inflammation, and destroy the p. acnes bacteria. This helps clear current acne breakouts and to stop them in the future. Also, the deep heating energy helps build collagen, which can reduce the appearance of acne scars and leave skin looking radiant.

How long do the treatments take? NeoClear or GentleMax Pro treatments typically take between 10-30 minutes depending on the severity of acne and the size of the area affected (face, neck, chest, torso). The NeoClear and GentleMax Pro are highly safe and effective lasers. They are tolerable for all skin types, all ages, and all types of acne. Treatment may be performed without any skin cooling, anesthetic, and even without the need to touch the skin.

Chemical Peel Options for Acne

Chemical Peel Lightest to Strongest

• No Downtime Peel
• Brightening Peel
• VI Peel Precision Plus

No Downtime Peels
We offer two different types of “no downtime peels.” Our aestheticians can tell you which is best for your skin based on what you want to accomplish with your skin and your skin type.
 
Brightening Peel
​Our Brightening Peel is a mid grade peel that has multiple benefits. This peel is great for completely getting rid of that top layer of skin, which helps with texture and skin complexion. This peel helps with acne and uneven skin tone. Patients will start peeling 2-3 days after the treatment and continuously peel up until that 7th day.
 
The VI Peel Precision Plus and Acne Purify
VI Peel Precision Plus - Hyperpigmentation is a condition when patches of skin become darker than the surrounding skin. Although it is usually harmless, it can be difficult to treat effectively. The VI Peel Precision Plus can help restore the skin tone you deserve.
 
VI Peel Acne Purify - During your battle with acne, you can be left with scarred skin and sometimes increased pigmentation. Acne scars will often fade over time but sometimes they need a little help. VI Purify will help eliminate acne scars and skin damage leaving your skin smooth and clear.
