Innovations Acne Care | Aramis
If you have more than two pimples most of the time, you
are a good candidate for laser acne treatment. When bacteria clogs the
pores, skin produces a waxy substance that we commonly refer to as oil,
and pimples and acne form. Acne carries with it the risk of mild and/or
permanent scarring. Laser acne treatments have the capability to not only help reduce the acne itself but to remove acne-induced scars as well. Even normally unresponsive acne often responds to this laser acne treatment. Dallas and Fort Worth patients have an additional option: the complete Innovations Acne Care program.

Innovations Acne Care
Innovations Acne Care
combines proven acne treatments to aggressively treat acne while avoiding
Accutane whenever possible. Innovations Acne Care involves the use of topical
treatments with cosmeceuticals, chemical peels and topical retinoids.
In addition, Innovations Acne Care uses a special microdermabrasion process called
WaterBeam. The WaterBeam uses pressurized water to apply topical therapies
that penetrate deep into the skin. WaterBeam can also greatly enhance
the clearing of active pimples and blackheads.
Innovations Acne Care became FDA-approved on March 15, 2005, and
has already been used in England for several years. The revolutionary
aspect of Innovations Acne Care is its use of light technologies.
Omnilux system combined with blue and red light can clear
up acne when other methods fail. Two 20-minute, painless sessions per
week under the light for four weeks constitutes the usual treatment course.
The blue light kills bacteria, while the red light turns off the inflammatory
cascade. Red light can also restore pigment to Vitiligo patients, which
no other treatment is capable of. The Omnilux is also used in photodynamic
therapy (PDT). In PDT, Levulan is applied to the active acne lesions
and is activated using the light. This treatment can be highly effective
in reducing acne lesions. PDT requires the patient to avoid sunlight
entirely for 48 hours following the procedure.
Precautions must be taken when undergoing Innovations Acne Care
treatment including wearing proper eye protection, applying a catalytic
agent to lesions with blue light and remaining indoors for 48 hours post-treatment.

Aramis laser treatment for acne
Another revolutionary light
therapy is the Aramis laser. Many patients respond to Aramis laser treatments
even when they have failed to respond to other treatments. Aramis shrinks
sebaceous glands and reduces skin oiliness. Aramis also reduces the appearance
of acne scars.
These combined therapies can treat a great majority of
acne cases without the use of Accutane. Teens, young adults and older
adults are all excellent candidates for these treatments.
