Laser Treatments

Results depend on the concern being treated. Improvements in inflammation, post-acne red marks, and rosacea-related redness are often noticeable early, sometimes within the first few sessions, with progressive lightening over 4–6 treatments. Changes in skin texture and acne scarring take longer, as collagen remodeling occurs gradually over 4–12 weeks. Deeper scars, especially when treated with Fotona, typically require a full treatment series to achieve the most visible improvement.

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) works primarily on the surface of the skin, using broad-spectrum light that interacts with pigment in the upper layers. Because of this, IPL can be more aggressive to the skin barrier and is not suitable for all skin tones, especially deeper or tan complexions. Its effects are mostly superficial, which limits both safety and consistency of results. Laser treatments, on the other hand, use a single, precise wavelength that penetrates deeper into the skin without unnecessarily affecting the surface. This allows us to treat inflammation, redness, and acne-related concerns while preserving the skin barrier. Thanks to this controlled depth and precision, laser technology is safe and effective for almost all skin tones when properly selected.

Aerolase, Genesis, Candela and Fotona are safe for all skin tones (Fitzpatrick I–VI). Excel-V is safe for only Fitzpatrick I - III.

Milder lasers (Genesis, Aerolase) target inflammation, redness, and surface-level texture with zero downtime. Aggressive lasers (Fotona) resurface the skin more deeply, breaking up scar tissue and stimulating greater collagen production — with a few days of redness or flaking afterward. We choose the approach based on your goals and scar severity. Mild, no Excel V модно сделать более агрессивным. Advanced. Milder lasers — such as Genesis, Aerolase, and Excel V — target inflammation, redness, vascular concerns, and surface-level texture with little to no downtime. Excel V is considered a mild, well-tolerated laser, but it can also be customized to more advanced settings when deeper vascular or inflammatory issues need additional correction, while still maintaining a strong safety profile. Aggressive lasers — such as Fotona — resurface the skin more deeply, helping break up scar tissue and stimulate higher levels of collagen production. These treatments deliver stronger structural change but typically involve a few days of redness, flaking, or downtime. We select the laser type and intensity based on your skin type, goals, and the severity of scarring, ensuring the most effective results.

Absolutely. Aerolase, Laser Genesis, and Candela are excellent options for patients with active breakouts, as they help reduce inflammation, redness, and acne-causing bacteria while supporting skin healing. Excel V is primarily designed to target vascular concerns, that’s why it is not typically used during active acne flare-ups and is better suited once breakouts are under control. For deeper resurfacing treatments like Fotona, we usually recommend stabilizing active acne first to ensure safer healing and the best long-term improvement.
