Don’t let acne hold you back

Have you been suffering from acne for far too long? Have you tried extensive treatments without success? Break-outs occur due to a skin predisposition that does not allow the skin to exfoliate itself correctly. If you’re ready to tackle it once and for all, About Face was the first medical spa to offer the Isolaz laser acne treatment in Philadelphia.

Patient Education

The Causes of Acne

To best understand how the Isolaz works, it is helpful to understand the acne basics. Acne typically happens when the skin is unable to exfoliate itself correctly.

Rather than shedding dead and dying skin cells, the acne sufferers skin cells get clogged inside the opening of the skin’s pores. This forms little ‘plugs’ which result in the beginnings of blackheads, whiteheads, and all forms of pimples. Although there are additional factors at work, it is this clogging of pores that causes acne.

Bringing You Results

How does laser acne treatment work?

Isolaz uses both “vacuum” action and light therapy for the most effective treatment. The Isolaz vacuum action helps loosen and extract dead and dying skin cells, dirt, blackheads and excess oil from deep within your pores. Simultaneously, a painless flash off light goes off, which destroys acne-causing bacteria, and promotes faster healing.

The laser also decreases, and in some cases eliminates, the production of oil from your sebaceous glands, so future acne is prevented.

Topical Numbing

Topical numbing creams provide effective pain relief for moderately uncomfortable skin treatments.

Pronox is a 50/50 mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen. Often called “laughing gas,” it relieves anxiety and pain.

Lidocaine Injection

For a deeper level of numbing, we can utilize lidocaine injections.
