Laser Acne Treatments
Fotona Laser for Active ACne
Acne is among the most common skin conditions but can be surprisingly complex and difficult to treat. Multiple factors contribute to the development of acne, including excess oil production, clogged pores, inflammation, hormonal fluctuations, genetics, and acne-causing bacteria. Because these underlying causes vary from person to person and often change over time, a treatment that works well for one individual might not be effective for another. Acne is a chronic condition for many patients, meaning it can persist or recur despite treatment. Successful acne management often requires a personalized approach, combining professional treatments, medical-grade skincare, and ongoing maintenance to achieve and maintain clear, healthy skin.
Clearer Skin with Advanced Laser Technology
Fotona’s advanced laser technology offers a non-invasive option for active acne by targeting the underlying causes of breakouts, not just the visible symptoms. Using a combination of Nd:YAG laser wavelengths, the treatment helps reduce inflammation, control excess oil production, and support healthier skin regeneration.
How Fotona Acne Treatment Works
The Fotona acne protocol is designed to manage active acne through a multi-step approach:
Targets overactive sebaceous (oil) glands to reduce excess oil production.
Helps control inflammation associated with acne breakouts.
Assists in deep cleansing of congested pores and inflammatory lesions.
Stimulates collagen production and skin renewal for improved texture and long-term skin health.

What to Expect
Most patients require a series of treatments for optimal results, beginning with a minimum of four sessions for active acne management. Treatment plans are customized based on acne severity, skin type, and individual goals.
After treatment, patients can experience mild redness, swelling, or small scabs that typically resolve within five to seven days. As the skin heals, improvements in clarity, texture, and inflammation become more noticeable.
