Acne Treatment Options
While having a good skincare regime is essential for keeping oil, dirt and dead skin cells at bay, acne often requires additional treatments in order for it to subside. Here are your options.
Forever Clear BBL is a proprietary, Broad-Band Light procedure for addressing symptoms of active acne. The result is clear skin without the side effects of harsh acne medications or creams.
– Forever Clear BBL
During a Forever Clear BBL treatment, patients feel minimal to no discomfort as the provider gently glides the BBL handpiece across the skin. This process involves 3 total passes of the device over the treatment area. The first pass uses blue light to eliminate acne-causing bacteria located deep within the skin’s pores. The second pass uses yellow light to reduce inflammation and acne-associated redness while preventing new breakouts. To maximize patients’ results, the skin receives a third pass using infra-red light in rapid, gentle pulses to initiate the body’s natural healing process, reduce the appearance of existing scars, and enhance the benefits of the first two steps.
The BBL applicator keeps the skin cool and comfortable throughout the treatment. Afterward, most patients will continue to feel warm for 30 to 60 minutes.

Even your cosmeceutical home skincare regime will have a more significant effect after a microdermabrasion treatment. Microdermabrasion is an intense cleaning and exfoliating treatment that helps bring your skin back to life.
