Many cosmetic skin issues stem from deeper layers.  Modern tools and technology in dermatology can  reach these layers to help resolve  conditions such as:

  • Acne
  • Acne scars
  • Age Spots

Los Angeles patients who want  clear skin can benefit from  treatments that create physiological changes beneath the surface of the skin. Improvements can actually be measured through digital imaging analysis.

Los Angeles Clear Skin Procedures For Acne and Acne Scars

Acne is perhaps the most common obstacle to having clear skin.  This condition is multifaceted. Contributing causes to this issue include:

1) bacterial discharge

2) deeply embedded blockages created from within the skin (e.g. dead skin cells)

3) overly active oil glands that harbor bacteria and hasten the creation of blockages

4)  dirt from the environment

Clear Skin With the Spectra Laser for Getting Rid of Acne

A results oriented treatment will address these different areas.  Los Angeles patients have been able to achieve clear skin through procedures with a laser system called Spectra. The energy from this laser is able to reach deep within skin pores to clear blocked pores and kill microbes.  Most importantly though, the laser is able to burn away the outer sac of the sebaceous glands. This makes them less active. As a result, they secrete less oil.

Bacteria in the skin causes inflammation to occur.  In response to this trauma, the dermis will produce collagen fibers in the form of scar tissue.

Enabling the skin to generate normal collagen fibers will help fade the scars.

Los Angeles Clear Skin Treatment For Age Spots

Age spots emerge in response to sun damage. The skin will secrete a pigment called melanin which acts as a protective sunscreen.

Age spots are situated below the skin’s surface. Lasers are ideal for removing unwanted pigmentation. They can work on deeper layers without disturbing the outer layer of skin.

Fraxel Dual’s specialized wavelengths target the melanin in the age spots. This energy is resistant to being absorbed by the surrounding skin pigment. Therefore it is safe for all skin tones.

The laser system can help Los Angeles patients achieve their desired clear skin complexion by breaking up the structures in the skin that contain the melanin.

This patient received significant improvement in clearing her age spots.  According to a VISIA skin analysis, her complexion improved from  the 54th percentile to the 91st percentile.
