ClearSkin Acne Treatment in Bracknell, Berkshire

Acne is a common lesion which affects many teenagers and adults. ClearSkin is a non-ablative laser that deeply penetrates the skin, causing thermal damage to the sebaceous glands, destroying P.acnes bacteria and reducing sebum production, whilst leaving the epidermis intact. Laser treatment for acne gives very good results.

Harmony ClearSkin can diminish the appearance of acne scars by stimulating collagen renewal. The treatment is suitable for all skin types, has no side effects and achieves a smoother complexion with lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions

• How does laser acne treatment work?

  Intense blue-wavelength light targets the acne-causing bacteria and rapidly reduces the bacteria without damaging the surrounding tissue, and can actually decrease the inflammatory response. Additionally the heat helps to regulate oil production, effectively treating the acne and leaving you with a clearer skin.*

• Am I suitable for acne laser treatments and how many will I need?

  Generally most patients will need 8 treatments over a 4 week period. Treatment is suitable for most people; however, prior to treatment a free consultation is mandatory during which a medical history is taken and an assessment of the desired treatment area is carried out. This will then allow the practitioner to determine suitability for treatment, how many sessions will be required and the expected results.

• Recovery time for acne laser treatment?

  There is little or no downtime with this fast and effective treatment. However, there may be some mild redness on the skin.
