August 28, 2025

Revolutionary Laser Technology That's Transforming Acne Care

Acne affects millions of people worldwide, causing not just physical symptoms but emotional distress that can last long after breakouts clear. While traditional acne treatments often come with harsh side effects, downtime, and inconsistent results, Aerolase laser treatment has emerged as the most effective, gentle, and comprehensive solution for all types of acne.

What Makes Aerolase the Best Acne Treatment Device?

1. Unique 650-Microsecond Technology

The Aerolase Neo Elite utilizes proprietary 650-microsecond pulse duration technology, which is uniquely suited for acne treatment. This ultra-short pulse duration allows the laser to:

  • Target acne-causing bacteria (P. acnes) without damaging surrounding tissue.
  • Reduce sebaceous gland activity to control oil production.
  • Stimulate collagen production for acne scar improvement.
  • Provide immediate anti-inflammatory effects.

2. Safe for All Skin Types and Tones

Unlike many laser treatments that carry risks for darker skin tones, Aerolase acne laser therapy is FDA-cleared and safe for all skin types, including:

  • Fitzpatrick skin types I-VI.
  • Active tanned skin.
  • Sensitive skin conditions.
  • Patients taking photosensitizing medications such isotretinoin, doxycycline, benzoyl peroxide, etc.

3. No Downtime, Immediate Results

Aerolase acne treatment offers several advantages over traditional therapies.

Immediate benefits:

  • Visible reduction in active breakouts after one session.
  • Reduced erythema, redness, and inflammation.
  • No peeling, crusting, or recovery time needed.
  • Return to normal activities immediately post-treatment.

Long-term results:

  • 80-90% improvement in acne lesions after 4-6 sessions.1
  • Reduced acne scarring and improved skin texture.
  • Long-lasting results with maintenance treatments.
  • Improved overall skin health and appearance.
