How Dual Light Acne Treatment Works

Over 80% of the adolescent population and over 50% of the adult population suffer from acne and oily skin. Acne develops when an over production of sebum and dead skin cells collect in your pores creating an inflammatory reaction. To treat this condition, we must target both the inflammation and bacteria build up at the same time. We do this by using dual light-based technology. The dual-light is separated into blue light, which kills the bacteria that causes acne breakouts, and red light, which reduces acne-related inflammation. We pair this treatment with our clarifying human growth factor serums to deliver the coding for healthier skin and produce optimal results.

It feels like a really light snap with an elastic band against your skin, or like if someone lightly flicked you, as the applicator moves around
the treatment area.

The applicator has a cooling feature built into it to make the treatment as comfortable as possible, but you might feel a bit of discomfort if
you’re treating a more sensitive area, like the upper lip. If you find it too uncomfortable, let the operator know and they can adjust the
treatment accordingly.

Your skin may feel warm, like a sunburn, and can remain red for anywhere from a few hours to a day. Be sure to follow instructions for
before and after your treatment.

Avoid tanning for at least 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after your treatment, and wear sunscreen. You should also avoid hot baths,
massages, or any treatment that requires direct contact with the skin for the first 2 days after your treatment.
