Are you tired of battling persistent acne breakouts and the scars they leave behind? At Solcara Health in Mt. Pleasant, SC, we can provide you with customized solutions that can help you regain your confidence and achieve clear, radiant skin. Some options are medical grade ZO skin care, topical prescription medications, oral hormonal blockers, oral prescription antibacterial medications, and personalized chemical peels. With post acne scarring, we also offer our state-of-the-art Fotona laser to help leave skin smoother and more even-toned skin.
The simple answer is that it depends. We will take into consideration each person’s goals, age, and lifestyle to accommodate the right treatment plan. Because no two people are the same, thus no two treatment plans are the same. We will always customize our approach to meet everyone’s needs, ideally starting with the least aggressive form first.
Before your treatment begins, our experienced team may apply a topical anesthetic to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. During the treatment session, gentle pulses of laser light precisely target the affected areas of your skin.
The duration and number of sessions required will depend on the size and severity of your acne or scarring. Typically, patients can expect to undergo 3-5 treatment sessions, with each session lasting anywhere from 10-30 minutes. The best part? There's minimal downtime associated with Fotona laser treatments, so you can return to your daily activities right after your appointment.
While you may experience some mild discomfort during the treatment, rest assured that it's temporary and manageable. With a few days of post-treatment care, you'll start to notice improvements in your existing acne breakouts and a gradual fading of acne scars.
If the first treatment option fails, we will continue to advance our strategies to get to the desired goal of smooth skin. Results vary from person to person as well as vary depending on the treatment method used. Oral and topical medications may take weeks to months to see the benefit while with the laser, many patients notice improvements after a few days of post-treatment care.
Again, all of our treatment plans are tailored to each individual, but many of our patients in Mt. Pleasant, SC have experienced impressive transformations. After doing the Fotona laser, some patients see a significant reduction or even elimination of active breakouts after just one session. For others, a series of sessions may be needed to achieve their desired results.
