ACNE SKIN TREATMENT IN CHICO, CA at 916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC
Treatment protocols for Photodynamic Skin Rejuvenation take 2 to 3 hours and vary from practice to practice. For non-inflamed acne, the treatment typically includes deep cleansing, astringent and microdermabrasion to prepare the skin. Next, Levulan ALA, a photosensitizing agent is applied to the affected area and allowed to penetrate the skin for 1 to 2 hours depending on the location and the severity of skin damage. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), a light treatment therapy similar to a laser, is used to activate the Levulan. IPL is selectively administered to acneic, damaged or diseased tissue while leaving healthy skin in tact.
Following the procedure, patients experience a sunburn-like reaction with varying degrees of skin shedding for 3 to 5 days. Generally, the skin heals quickly with the aid of a closely monitored skin care protocol as well as LED light if necessary.
Photodynamic Skin Rejuvenation with Levulan ALA is safe and effective. It can be used for a variety of cosmetic and dermatologic conditions, and can safely treat many skin types and ethnicities.
