Best Laser Treatment for Acne?

We disagree wholeheartedly with the statement that "lasers do not work for acne". In fact, if you look at the before and after pictures on Realself and at Celibre, you will find exactly the opposite. As with many medical procedures, what may work well for one patient may not work for another. This is especially true for acne.

Isolaz is my favorite. The new model allows for extraction of the pore content, light based treatment of the skin, and topical infusion of acne meds.

I cannot tell too much from the picture, but it looks like papular and cystic acne, and that you have ethnic, darker skin. For you, I'd use Cooltouch. It is safe for all skin types. Cooltouch C3 laser heats the sebaceous glands to shrink them, while stimulating collagen production to reduce scars. My second choice would be Isolaz which combines pneumatic suction to clean the pores with blue light to kill bacteria and IPL to reduce redness. Good luck.

There is no laser treatment that I find is effective for acne. Photodynamic therapy and blue light produce only minimal improvement, if any. IPL treats the red discoloraions after the acne resolves only and doesn't treat acne.
