Acne and Acne Scar Treatment

Here’s a look at the non-surgical acne and acne scar solutions offered by Lakeside Laser Clinic:

Quanta Light EVO - IPL Photorejuvenation: IPL photorejuvenation, also known as photofacial, is the gold standard for treating acne and acne scarring. Intense pulsed light targets the skin’s deeper layers beneath the acne. Pigments in the cells called melanin absorb the light energy and turn it into heat, eliminating acne-causing bacteria. That helps control acne outbreaks and prevents future ones.  

IPL therapy also promotes collagen and elastin production, which helps heal the skin and smooth away scar tissue. Just a few treatment sessions can clear even the most stubborn acne outbreaks and deliver a smoother, more radiant complexion. 

Microneedling: Microneedling involves the use of microneedles to create numerous micro-injuries in the top layer of the skin. That sets off the body’s natural healing process in overdrive, triggering collagen and elastin production and healing the skin from within.  

Microneedling has been shown to reduce acne outbreaks and smooth away scarring, with dramatic results that last. It’s also highly effective in reversing the signs of aging, sun damage, skin discoloration, and many more common skin concerns. The procedure works well for all skin types and tones, with dramatic results every time. 

Quanta Light EVO Series - Non-Ablative Laser Resurfacing: Non-ablative laser therapy involves the creation of numerous tiny channels in the skin, triggering the body’s self-repair processes and increasing collagen production. Fractional resurfacing is an effective treatment for acne scars as well as many other common skin concerns. 

Most individuals report immediate improvement in the skin’s health and appearance, with improvement continuing for a few months as the collagen is replenished. We usually recommend 3 to 5 treatments scheduled 4 to 5 weeks apart for the best results.
