Acne is a very common skin disease affecting 50 million Americans annually, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. Although it is a common condition, acne is a misunderstood and tricky thing to deal with.
Acne usually begins at puberty and impacts teenagers and young adults the most due to rising levels in hormones. The role of hormones is very crucial when it comes to skin health as hormones trigger sebum production and sebaceous growth, causing congestion, clogged pores, inflammation and excess oil.
What is AviClear?
Thankfully, there are amazing remedies to treat acne at the source. If you feel like you've tried everything including medication, topical creams, retinoids and facials, and haven't had any luck, AviClear is the newest FDA- cleared device that uses a 1726 nanometer to selectively target and suppress the sebaceous gland with little to no side effects.
The best part of it all
Other than a bit of redness around blemishes, which is typically short-lived, and some possible purging, there is no swelling, bruising, peeling or scabbing associated with the treatment. AviClear is a laser/ light treatment, meaning there are no side effects like there are with medications like Accutane.
In the treatment room
AviClear requires no topical numbing agents and requires each patient to at least do 250 pulses to effectively target the sebaceous gland in a safe way. On the bright side, the device does come with a sapphire cooling smart sensor to help with the sting.
