Photodynamic Therapy vs Photo Therapy and Fotofacial?

I want to try a "photo" treatment for my acne, but I don't know how they are different or which one works best on acne. Can someone tell me how phototherapy and photofacial and photodynamic therapy are different and recommend the best one of those treatments? Thanks a lot.
