WHY DO ACNE BREAKOUT?
Acne usually appears in the teenage years, but a lot of adults also suffer from persistent and long-lasting acne. These skin blemishes appear when the pores in the skin are blocked with oil, dirt, bacteria and dead skin cells. Hair follicles exist in the pores together with the sebaceous gland that is responsible for the production of sebum or natural oil. The sebum goes up the hair and keeps the skin soft and moisturized.
If people produce too much sebum then they are bound to get acne. There are various reasons why this excess sebum is produced like increased or fluctuating hormones during puberty or pregnancy or the reason can be medications like birth control pills. An improper diet that is high in sugar or fat can contribute to acne breakout. Too much sebum, combined with dead skin cells and bacteria that cause acne, results in a clog that doesn’t let the oil get out. The skin can’t get properly cleaned and regenerated. This process can bring up undesired red pimples, oozing pustules, or black or whitehead bumps.
These unwanted red spots often end up leaving scars on the skin that look like sunken craters. The appearance of the face that has active acne combined with acne scarring can seriously diminish a person’s self-esteem. But, finding out that there is a solution in a form of ClearSkin treatment can transform the patient’s life for the better.
HOW DOES CLEARSKIN TREATMENT WORK?
ClearSkin treatment utilizes Erbium Glass Fibre laser that penetrates deep into the skin and eliminates P. Acnes bacteria- responsible for acne breakout. At the same time, the laser causes thermal damage to the sebaceous glands and lowers the production of sebum. The sebum causes blockages inside the follicles of the hair that result in acne and spots appearance. The vacuum element in the treatment cleans the area and gently extracts the dirt blocking the pores, while the laser works under the skin’s surface.
The top layer of the skin stays intact because this is a non-ablative laser – it heats the tissue but doesn’t damage it.
Compared to stronger cleaning and aggressive chemical peels, ClearSkin treatment doesn’t eliminate the protective oils from the skin – it just vacuums the blocked pores and lowers the production of sebum.
This precisely controlled laser targets only the bacteria under the skin surface. It produces microscopic light beams and creates pixels or fractional perforations in the targeted area. It utilizes a wavelength that doesn’t ablate or evaporate the water in the skin tissue, but only heats it.
Simultaneously, the laser triggers the body’s natural healing process and starts producing collagen, increases blood circulation and stimulates skin cells’ renewal. The skin starts to heal and regenerates the targeted areas.
The result of the treatment is the reduction of acne and acne scars but also smoother and youthful-looking skin.
