Pulsed Dye laser PDL treatment for moderate acne skin?

Question

So I have booked the PDL (Regenlite). A package of 6 Regenlite and 6 Revlite (advanced Q-switch laser?) is offered (12 Regenlite if omit the other). I'm told Regenlite is for killing bacteria, Revlite is for cleaning.. but all I'm expecting is only getting rid of new acne, would the cleaning laser be necessary? They're suggested once every 2 weeks (assuming Revlite is involved), in turns. But some say PDL can prevent acne for roughly 3 months? What would be your suggestions? Thanks a lot!!

I recommend a good skin care regimen before you institute or initiate a good skin care regimen using the Clarifying Kit or another doctor formulated program. I place my patients on this system and have found it to be very effective. It is from Kare Skin/Best

Thank you for your question. It is difficult to determine without a photo. You can treat acne by doing a series of treatments via LightPodNeo Aerolase laser or PicoSure laser. The PicoSure laser is FDA-approved and is gentle on your skin, with minimal discomfort or downtime after treatments. PicoSure works by sending ultra-short pulses of laser energy into the outer and inner skin layers. The Aerolase laser aims laser technology Into both the outer and inner layers of your skin. As it penetrates the deep layers of your dermis, it helps to combat bacteria and any other infections. It also will help reduce oil, swelling, and inflammation. I recommend getting a in person consultation with a board-certified dermatologist.

YEs a great safe way of treating BOTH acne and PIE, the problem is that acne will come back if you do treat the CAUSE of acne. I use this treatment frequently if I need to clear up acne in a hurry before scar revision but concurrently refer patients to MEDICAL dermatologist to treat the cause of this condition. I encourage you to consider combined treatments , or if you want to spend the money for spot treatment every two weeks, its fine. Just here to advice you on the best practices. Dr Davin S. Lim.
