(Intensed Pulsed Light Fotofacial)

Using Light Therapy Alone – (BLU-U®)

It is also notable that blue light (BLU-U®) treatments alone (not in combination with the Aminolevulinic Acid) are effective in combating moderate acne; however BLU-U® has to be used several times per week. Narrow band blue light causes a photodynamic effect within the pylosebaceous gland that kills the bacteria primarily responsible for acne vulgaris.

Intense pulsed light alone is a very common procedure for sun damage, redness, and broken blood vessels of the face. The use of PDT in combination with light is clearly superior, but the individual who cannot tolerate some “down time” from the more aggressive procedures will still benefit from light based treatment alone. There is no need to live with sun damaged or acne affected skin because now they are highly treatable. Call today for a consultation to pursue a treatment that is right for you. 1-800-610-7484
