How Does AviClear Work to Treat Acne?
Reducing excessive oil production can have a positive impact on your skin, resulting in fewer and less severe breakouts. However, the skin still needs a certain amount of oil to stay healthy. AviClear strikes a perfect balance by controlling oil that causes acne without compromising your skin.
AviClear utilizes a gentle yet powerful laser with a wavelength of 1726 nm to target the oil glands present in the skin. The 1726 nm wavelength is a new type of infrared diode laser device designed to effectively treat various levels of acne, ranging from mild to severe. The laser quickly raises the temperature within the sebaceous glands, resulting in a carefully controlled thermal injury.
What Is the Procedure Like?
The AviClear procedure uses a device that emits pulses of light and heat energy to the specific area being treated. Patients often describe the feeling as a mild and brief discomfort, comparable to the sensation of a rubber band snapping. However, the laser’s skin cooling sensors help minimize discomfort during the procedure.
How Many Treatments Are Needed?
Typically, patients require three AviClear treatments in order to observe a noticeable improvement in their acne symptoms. However, the number of treatments required may vary based on your skin type and the severity of your acne. Each session has a duration of about 30 minutes, and the recommended interval between treatments is typically four to six weeks.
In general, approximately 90% of patients experience notable improvement in their acne symptoms following treatment with AviClear.
