WHAT CAUSES ACNE?
Acne occurs when the skin’s sebaceous
glands become overactive, creating cellular
debris, called sebum, which plugs the
pores. Bacteria accumulates in the blocked
pores and leads.
Acne generally begins in puberty but
can last well into adulthood.
PULSED LIGHT: HOW DOES IT WORK?
Pulses of filtered light are
directed onto the skin and absorbed
by the bacteria and sebaceous
glands. Pulsed light systems are
similar to lasers but with a larger
beam for wider coverage and faster,
more comfortable treatments.
The Palomar Pulsed Light System
attacks acne on two fronts:
It attacks bacteria to clear
current acne breakouts.
It decreases the production of
sebum, which clogs pores and
traps bacteria, leading to
future acne breakouts.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What Happens After Acne Treatment?
Your skin may be slightly red after treatment. The acne
blemishes shrink and become less noticeable, and then fade
after approximately one week.
Will the Treatments Hurt?
Palomar Pulsed Light Systems use a unique long
pulsewidth that delivers energy to the skin over a relatively
long period of time. This makes the pulses safer and more
comfortable. You may experience a feeling similar to that
of a rubber band being snapped on the skin, but most
people do not report this sensation as painful.
Are There Any Adverse Reactions to Treatment?
You may experience temporary redness and a
mild “sunburn”- like effect that may last a few
hours to a few days.
