Laser acne treatment provides an excellent alternative to topical treatments (creams) or medication (antibiotics\/acne pills). The Harmony XL Pro laser works to destroy the acne-causing bacteria and stimulate the skin\u2019s healing responses. The manufacturers state:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cWithin eight brief acne laser treatments, over just four weeks, Harmony\u00aeXL\u2018s AFT can provide significant improvement. This is three times faster than common antibiotics and topical treatments. Patients should achieve 80% clearance and treatments for acne take only a few minutes\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Acne scar treatment focuses on the areas where former acne has damaged the skin surface. For individuals with lighter skin tones, this scarring usually causes redness and sometimes brown marks, whilst post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (darkening) is characteristic of these unwanted blemishes on darker skin tones.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Title” _builder_version=”4.11.2″ text_font=”Montserrat||||||||” text_text_color=”#747d88″ text_line_height=”1.4em” header_font=”Montserrat|700||on|||||” header_text_color=”#4E336B” header_font_size=”42px” header_2_font=”||||||||” header_2_text_align=”left” header_2_text_color=”#4E336B” header_2_font_size=”28px” header_3_font=”||||||||” header_3_text_color=”#00acdb” header_3_font_size=”24px” header_4_text_align=”center” max_width=”700px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||10px||false|false” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”bottom” animation_intensity_slide=”4%” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.11.2″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#c6c6c6″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”800px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.11.2″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_text_color=”#00acdb” custom_margin=”||10px|20px|false|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_accordion _builder_version=”4.11.2″ _module_preset=”default” toggle_font_size=”18px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_accordion_item title=”What does it treat?” open=”on” _builder_version=”4.11.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”How does it work?” _builder_version=”4.11.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n Intense blue-wavelength light targets the acne-causing bacteria and rapidly destroys the bacteria without damaging the surrounding tissue, and can actually decrease the inflammatory response. Additionally the heat helps to regulate oil production, effectively destroying acne and leaving you with a clearer skin.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Am I suitable for treatment, and how many will I need?” _builder_version=”4.11.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n Generally most patients will need 6-8 treatments. Treatment is suitable for most people; however, prior to treatment a free consultation is mandatory during which a medical history is taken and an assessment of the desired treatment area is carried out. This will then allow the practitioner to determine suitability for treatment, how many sessions will be required and the expected results.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”How long is each treatment session?” _builder_version=”4.11.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n It depends on which area is being treated.
