Acne Treatment
A drug free alternative
Discover A World Without Acne & Scars
If you suffer from more than the occasional acne, pimples, and oily skin, Carbon facials and targeted acne laser treatments can help. Carbon Facials are a carbon mask applied to your skin that penetrates deep into your pore to remove dead skin cells, blackheads, and oil. SharpLight Acne treatments are a safe, drug-free approach to treat mild to moderate inflammatory acne.
How Does it Work?
During treatment, DPC pulses are emitted onto the target area. Depending on the condition that is being treated, your aesthetic physician can choose the best energy level- from very high to low pulses. The pulses penetrate the dermis layer of the skin and heat up the tissue. The heat causes the collagen fibers to contract, which yields immediate skin tightening results. It also stimulates the body to create new collagen, which helps the skin to restore its elasticity and firmness delivering long-term results.
