IPL ACNE CLEARANCE
IPL or Intense Pulse light machines these days is the advanced treatment for acne. Speciifally the IPL targets the sebaceous gland where the oil is secreted. By getting rid of the sebaceous glands and the over production of the oil, the acne is diminished. Depending on the type of acne one suffers from, the type time may vary and with homecare plans the acne is totally diminished.
Using a unique 3-prong approach of green light, red light & heat optimizes the oxygen effect and quickly destroys p.acnes bacterial. Green light penetrates deep beneathe the skin surface causing the porphyrin molecules to release oxygen which attacks the bacteria. Red light quickly reduces the inflammation from the base of the hair follicle. The heat clears the pores, speeding up the chemical reaction and soothes the acne lesions.
