Acne isn’t just for teenagers. Do you know that 37% of adults in their 40s struggle with acne?
You might have tried everything from face washes and dieting, but still, pesky red pimples remain. You might know that laser can smooth away age-related skin concerns, but you probably didn’t know it can drastically improve breakouts and prevent them from reoccurring.
Forever Clear® Broadband Light (BBL) uses high-intensity pulses of light to eliminate acne-causing bacteria for smoother, clearer skin. Shantique Med Spa is proud to provide BBL to patients in Torrance, California, who want to get rid of their acne once and for all.
Everyone wants clear, dewy skin. Instead of buying that new product, undergo a treatment that stands the test of time.
Forever Clear is a sophisticated laser system designed to treat acne and give you the skin you’ve always wanted. But how? The secret lies in photothermolysis.
Used in dermatology and aesthetics, photothermolysis is a scientific process in which light energy is precisely used to target skin tissues by safely destroying them through heat. Our attentive technicians use the handheld Scition handpiece and glide it across your skin using light to:
Not only does it target these unwanted causes of acne, but it also promotes skin healing. BBL supercharges collagen to:
You’ll see an improvement in your skin after one treatment but may need four to six treatments to get the clearest skin results. BBL treatments should be done about a month apart to give your skin optimal time to recover.
You likely want to banish acne fast. The good news? Right after your BBL treatment, your skin begins working toward a clearer complexion. However, optimal results will take a few weeks. Here’s the timeline:
After your BBL appointment, you may notice your skin looks red, and you might have some minor swelling — similar to a sunburn. Some patients may also notice age spots and pigmentation have darkened. These are both normal, common side effects from treatment that generally subside in hours or a few days.
During this time, you’ll notice a reduction in active acne lesions while inflammation and redness are on the mend. This leaves behind clearer, brighter skin and an even complexion.
You’ll enjoy less oil production and clearer skin during this time. Collagen production is heightened, which repairs acne-damaged skin like scars and discoloration. You’ll notice a great improvement in your appearance, and your friends will wonder what your secret is!
You must continue BBL treatments every few months to sustain your results and stay breakout-free. Continuing treatment betters your results by further improving skin texture and clarity.
You’ve probably heard of Accutane, a prescription medication that can treat severe nodular acne. More than 12 million people have been prescribed the medication, but this powerful drug has a dark side. More than 30,000 people report serious side effects like anxiety, hallucinations, and even suicide.
Don’t take a chance with your health – BBL is minimally invasive with a safe track record and few side effects, although mild. You don’t have to worry about undergoing any mood or behavior changes with this innovative skin treatment. Choose the safer and more natural way – your body and skin will thank you.
