LASER TREATMENT OF ACNE

Millions of young Americans suffer with acne. The great majority can get relief with the use of lotions, creams, and on occasion low dosage antibiotics. Some have acne that fails to respond to traditional treatments. This can result in scarring and damage not only to one's skin but also to one's psychological well-being. Accutane® is a valuable and effective remedy for severe resistant acne, but it carries a risk of significant side effects. It is because of concern about these side effects that there has been an ongoing search for safer treatments for acne.

At the Dermatology & Laser Center of Northern New Jersey the Vbeam® laser, along with the CoolTouch® laser and Levulan®, are being used effectively to suppress and control severe acne and to improve scarring that has already occurred as a result. Laser treatment of acne allows individuals to avoid the side effects of Accutane®. Call the Dermatology & Laser Center of Northern New Jersey for a complimentary consultation to determine whether or not you are a candidate for laser treatment of your acne.
