Aesthetic Treatments For Acne That Actually Work

The majority of people will experience some form of acne in their lifetime, but for most of us this exists as an unwelcome memory of puberty. Those who carry the condition into adulthood can find long-term acne embarrassing, with over-the-counter products offering little respite from breakouts. Thankfully, there are tried-and-tested aesthetic treatments for acne that boast effective results. Let’s explore our top 4 most successful acne-busting procedures.

 

4 Effective Aesthetic Treatments For Acne

Chemical Peels

The Obagi Radiance Peel uses salicylic acid as its primary ingredient. This rapidly breaks down the bonds between dead skin cells, releasing them from blocked pores and deeply cleansing the skin. The peel lowers the skin’s pH, making it an inhospitable home for acne bacteria and preventing future breakouts.

Opera LED Mask

One of the less familiar aesthetic treatments for acne, the Opera LED Mask uses a combination of different light wavelengths and galvanic currents to rejuvenate the skin. The 415nm blue light has proven antibacterial properties, destroying the acne-causing bacteria found on the surface of the skin. The 630nm red light promotes cellular repair, which helps to heal broken skin caused by breakouts, and the 830nm infra-red light increases blood flow, which accelerates the healing process.

 

Laser Rejuvenation

Some aesthetic treatments for acne focus solely on the face and neck, however, Laser Rejuvenation can be used anywhere on the body. This makes it a popular choice for those who experience acne breakouts across their chest or back.

During the treatment, an award-winning Lynton Lasers device converts a precise beam of light into thermal energy, removing the surface layer of skin. In addition to this, the laser destroys acne-causing bacteria and reduces oil production, preventing future breakouts. Courses of Laser Rejuvenation Treatments may also be used to treat acne scarring.

 

Advanced Skincare

ZO® Skin Health pushes the boundaries of medical-grade skincare. With over 30 years of clinically proven results, their philosophy is to maintain healthy skin, rather than treating ongoing skin conditions. Their Acne Control products seek to control surface oil and neutralise bacteria, resulting in a long-term clear complexion.

ZO® Skin Health products are a fantastic everyday tool to use alongside other aesthetic treatments for acne, such as Skin Peels, the Opera LED Mask and Laser Rejuvenation.
