How does the Aurora AC treat acne?
The Aurora laser utilizes a specific spectrum of light
which targets the bacteria that actually causes acne.
When this bacterium clogs pores, it can cause bumpy
and inflamed acne lesions. The Aurora AC combines
light and gentle radio frequency energies to decrease
acne-causing bacteria. It also helps keep the
sebaceous glands from over-producing oil and promotes
healing of the skin after acne break-outs.
Is acne treatment with the
Aurora safe?
Yes, acne treatment is extremely safe for all skin
tones, even for very dark skin. In fact, technology
advances in the Aurora make it one of the most
advanced and safest acne treatment systems available.
The light and radio frequency energies used in the
Aurora have been used successfully for decades in
medicine, surgery and aesthetics without damage or
other problems.
What kind of results can I
expect from acne treatment?
After a series of treatments with the Aurora AC, most
people notice a faster healing time of existing acne
lesions. Frequency and severity of acne lesions also
begin to subside as the treatments continue. In
addition, on-going treatments can help prevent acne
breakouts and promote skin-healing after breakouts,
which evens out skin tone and texture.
How frequently do I need
treatments?
Treatments are done twice a week for 4-6 weeks. Each
treatment session takes approximately 30 minutes.
After the initial series of treatments, your
technician may recommend additional treatments spread
out over a longer time interval to fine-tune your
therapy and help maintain the results.
Does acne treatment hurt?
The sensation is often described as a hot pinch or
snapping feeling and only last lasts for a fraction of
a second. You may feel warmth or a tingling sensation
for a short time afterward. The cooling tip that
touches the skin's surface makes the treatment more
comfortable and safer.
What happens after each
treatment?
Temporary pinkness in the skin lasts a very short
time, and most people return to work or other normal
activities immediately after a session. Everyone
responds differently, of course, but most report
improvement after the third week of treatments.
Who should get Aurora AC
treatment for acne?
Anyone who wants an alternative to traditional topical
or oral therapies for acne, or who has not responded
to traditional acne solutions, should consider Aurora
AC acne treatments. Acne on the face, chest and back
are all treatable, although there are a few medical
conditions that prevent people from undergoing
treatment. Those conditions as well as expectations will be discussed
during your free consultation with our expert staff.
