Acne is a skin disease developing most often in puberty, but can also be found in adults. The cause lies in sebaceous gland disorder. Acne lesions are most frequent on the face, but can also develop on the back, shoulders, or neck. Excessive excretion of sebum causes that the skin is too oily and this triggers the formation of pimples. The gravity of the disease depends on genetics, stress, or bad eating habits.
To win the battle against acne using the Fotona Dynamis SP laser, a neodymium-yag beam should be employed. The job expected of the energy from the laser is to penetrate the skin in a controlled manner and destroy the most active sebaceous glands. The purpose of the treatment is also to prevent future acne development processes.
The laser is also intended for removing difficult acne scars. The treatment involves using a beam of erbium-yag laser. Thanks to regulated penetration depth, the laser vaporises the scarred skin layer in an absolutely safe manner, and reveals new skin free of any lesions.
