Acne is a common skin condition characterized by the presence of pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads, resulting from clogged hair follicles due to excess oil and dead skin cells. Severe cases can lead to inflammation and deeper cysts or nodules. Scars are the lasting marks left on the skin after the acne heals, often appearing as depressions or raised areas on the face. These scars can be challenging to treat and may affect one’s self-esteem.
Family Health Care & Wellness Center offers ADVATx® yellow + infrared laser treatments, an advanced therapy designed to effectively reduce acne and improve the appearance of facial scarring, helping patients achieve clearer and smoother skin.
What causes it to form?
Acne forms when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, creating an environment where bacteria can thrive, leading to inflammation and the development of pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. Hormonal changes, particularly during adolescence, pregnancy, or menstruation, can increase oil production and exacerbate breakouts.
Scars result from the skin’s healing process; when lesions penetrate deeply into the skin, they can damage the surrounding tissue. As the body repairs this damage, it sometimes produces too much or too little collagen, leading to either raised or depressed scars. Proper management and early treatment are crucial to minimize scarring.
How does FHCWC treat acne & scars?
We offer ADVATx® treatments to effectively reduce acne and facial scarring. ADVATx® uses a combination of yellow and infrared laser technology to target the root causes by reducing oil production, eliminating bacteria, and calming inflammation.
This dual-wavelength approach also stimulates collagen production, which helps to smooth out scars and improve overall skin texture. By addressing both active acne and residual scarring, ADVATx® provides a comprehensive solution for achieving clearer, healthier skin.
