CLEARLIGHT ACNE TREATMENT

With today's technology, there is no reason to suffer with pimples on your face or any other part of your body. Acne can be eradicated completely or improved dramatically with ClearLight Acne phototherapy now available at Advanced Body Sculpting of New England.

ClearLight treatments destroy acne-causing bacteria within the skin. The system's high-intensity blue-violet light activates special bacteria fighting agents in your own body called porphyrins. These porphyrins start a chemical reaction that produces peroxide which destroys the P. acnes bacteria, the culprit which causes acne. When ClearLight phototherapy is applied in 8 treatments over a 4 week period, most patients see a dramatic decrease in the number and severity of acne blemishes and lesions; some report significant improvements after only 2 to 3 sessions.

A typical ClearLight treatment session lasts approximately 15 minutes. The patient lies comfortably while the high-intensity ClearLight illuminates the acne. Protective eyewear is used during all treatments. The ClearLight utilizes a unique spectrum of light that causes the acne bacteria to self-destruct, while having no effect on the normal skin. The phototherapy is suitable for all areas of the body, including the face, back and shoulders, and chest. Treatments are painless and patients can return to normal activities immediately. There is no downtime, no irritation, no problems with the sun or physical activities, and no side effects.

ClearLight is the first medical device designed to significantly clear inflammatory acne lesions in less than 4 weeks. The goals of the ClearLight Acne Treatments include:

1. Prevent Scarring
2. Reduce the number of painful lesions
3. Limit disease duration
4. Minimize psychological stress and embarrassment

Treatment cost: $50/session
