Fotona Active Acne FAQs

Fotona Active Acne treatment is a non-invasive laser therapy that aims to reduce active acne by targeting sebaceous glands and bacteria on the skin's surface. It can help improve the appearance of acne lesions and prevent new breakouts.

Fotona Active Acne treatment uses laser energy to heat and shrink overactive sebaceous glands in the skin. This reduces excess oil production, which is a common factor in the development of acne. The treatment also has an antibacterial effect, targeting acne-causing bacteria.

Fotona Active Acne treatment can be used to address various types of acne, including inflammatory acne (papules and pustules), comedonal acne (blackheads and whiteheads), and acne with active breakouts.

Fotona Active Acne treatment is generally well-tolerated, and most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. Some individuals may feel a warming or tingling sensation, but this discomfort is typically mild and short-lived.

A single Fotona Active Acne treatment session typically takes about 15 to 30 minutes with numbing time needed beforehand, depending on the size and severity of the treated area.

The number of Fotona Active Acne treatment sessions required can vary depending on the individual's skin condition and the extent of acne. In many cases, a series of treatments, usually spaced a few weeks apart, is recommended for optimal results.

There is usually little to no downtime after Fotona Active Acne treatment. Some patients may experience mild redness or swelling immediately after the procedure, but these side effects typically subside within a few hours to a day. Most individuals can resume their regular activities immediately after treatment.

Results from Fotona Active Acne treatment may become noticeable within a few weeks to a couple of months after completing a series of treatments. Improvement in acne lesions and skin texture can continue over time.

Good candidates for Fotona Active Acne treatment are individuals with active acne breakouts or concerns about acne-prone skin who are looking for a non-invasive treatment option. A complimentary consultation with a healthcare provider can help determine if Fotona Active Acne treatment is suitable for your specific needs and goals.
