Thanks alista97 for your question! It's a normal concern because reducing your oil output is the main goal of AviClear. The quick answer is that your skin "type" won't typically fundamentally change to "dry," but it will act quite differently than you're accustomed to. In terms of the texture and oil content of your skin, you may actually anticipate the following: It regulates oil glands rather than eliminating them. AviClear suppresses the production of sebum by targeting the sebaceous (oil) glands to treat acne. It's similar like lowering a high-pressure faucet to a steady, controllable stream. You're transitioning from being too oily to being balanced or "normal." You'll probably feel "dry" during and just after your three treatment sessions of acne. This is frequently a transient consequence of the initial reduction in oil and the laser intensity. This is generally transitory. After your skin settles into its new "baseline," the acute dryness usually subsides. If you have spent years using harsh, oil-stripping foams and salicylic acid toners, such products will likely become too aggressive for you. You might use moisturizers that are high in ceramides and mild, non-foaming cleansers instead. Hope this was helpful! Best wishes, Dr Ali Sajjadian
