What is Blue Light Therapy and how does the procedure work to treat Acne?
Blue Light Photodynamic therapy is a dynamic light treatment for treating moderate inflammatory acne. Blue Light selectively targets and destroys acne-causing bacteria in a safe, and comfortable 30 minute procedure.

What are the major steps of the procedure?
After consulting with a physician, patients are prepped and seated beneath the treatment light for a set duration. The recommended treatment time may vary based on your specific needs but generally sessions run between 10 and 15 minutes and may be scheduled on average twice per week for up to 6 weeks to maximize results. A customized skincare program will also be prescribed to help enhance and maintain results.

Who is a good candidate? 
Teenagers and adults suffering from moderate inflammatory acne are great candidates for this treatment.

When will I see results and when can I return to everyday activities?
Patients will experience a gradual improvement of active acne and breakouts after several Blue Light Therapy treatments. Following each treatment, patients are advised to avoid sun exposure and exercise extreme care when sun exposure is unavoidable for at least 48 hours. Some patients may experience dryness and flaking for several days.
