Acne is a treatable skin condition that causes whiteheads, blackheads, and inflamed red lesions (papules, pustules, and cysts) to form. These growths are commonly called pimples or “zits.” Acne is most common on the face and shoulders, but can also occur on the trunk, arms, legs and back.Regardless of the type or severity of your acne, About Face and Body offers Fotona laser acne treatments that safely penetrates your skin to target overactive glands – reducing your chances of developing renewed acne inflammation.

For active acne on your body, Fotona’s laser reduces inflammation by using photoselective absorption and highly-controlled heating effects. Fotona’s high powered Nd:YAG laser penetrates your skin to a safe, optimal depth where it thermally destroys the overactive sebaceous glands that cause your acne.

In addition to Fotona’s thermal penetration abilities, the Nd:YAG acne laser accelerates your skin’s natural healing process and stimulates collagen remodeling which is important for your long-term acne treatment. Combining laser peels with the Erbium Yag laser with these treatments intensify the results and help to minimize previous scarring and post inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
