Laser therapy is a modern and effective method for the treatment of a variety of conditions. Results appear immediately after the procedure, there are no significant side effects, healing is rapid and the effect is long-lasting.
ClearSkin is a Er:Glass 1540 used in aesthetic dermatology for several types of conditions: acne, post acne scars, vascular conditions, hyperpigmentation, ageing.
It is an ALMA LASERS technology, world leader in medical lasers, adapted to the Harmony platform.
ClearSkin Laser has two main actions in the treatment of active acne:
- will reduce Propionibacterium acnes flora by altering the bacterial cell membrane
- will reduce the activity of the sebaceous glands, which secrete sebum in smaller, more fluid quantities.
On a clinical level these effects will translate into reduced hyperseborrhoea, closed and open comedones, pore size and inflammatory acne lesions.
At the same time those micro-pulses of energy cause micro-injury to the collagen in the dermis, causing a healing reaction with collagen and elastin synthesis, correcting post acne scars, pigmented spots, erythematous spots, enlarged pores and generally creating smoother, more even, more aesthetic skin.
Because the treatment does not affect the epidermis (the outer, protective layer of the skin) recovery time is short or not necessary compared to other more aggressive lasers.
The protocol comprises a series of 4-6 sessions, spaced every 2 weeks and can be integrated into complex treatment protocols.
A treatment session lasts 30 minutes, does not require anaesthesia, the usual sensation during the procedure is warmth, slight stinging.
Unlike other acne treatments (chemical peels, fractional CO2 laser, microneedling) the patient can return to daily activities because the skin has not been damaged and does not need a healing period.
