At SM Aesthetic Lab, we provide a cutting-edge laser treatment designed to effectively target mild to moderate inflammatory acne at its source. This non-invasive approach utilises the advanced Cutera Excel V+ laser to reduce inflammation, eliminate acne-causing bacteria, and regulate oil production, helping to prevent future breakouts. Unlike traditional acne treatments, this laser therapy offers precision targeting, ensuring each active acne lesion is treated directly for faster healing and improved skin clarity.
With minimal downtime, this treatment is ideal for those looking to manage persistent breakouts, improve overall skin texture, and reduce post-inflammatory redness. Whether you're dealing with occasional flare-ups or chronic acne, our laser therapy can be tailored to suit your unique skin needs, enhancing your confidence and promoting long-term skin health.
How It Works
Cutera’s advanced laser technology is precisely calibrated to target the root causes of acne. This non-invasive treatment penetrates deep into the skin to effectively reduce breakouts and promote long-term skin clarity. The laser works by:
- Reducing Inflammation: The heat energy calms redness and swelling associated with active acne.
- Eliminating Acne-Causing Bacteria: The laser destroys the bacteria responsible for breakouts, helping to prevent future flare-ups.
- Regulating Oil Production: Helps to reduce excess sebum, which can contribute to clogged pores and breakouts.
This targeted approach ensures that each acne lesion is treated effectively, promoting a clearer, healthier complexion over time.
What to Expect
- Spot Treatment Focus: The laser is applied directly to active acne lesions for precise and effective results.
- Gentle Yet Powerful: Designed to minimise discomfort while reducing redness, swelling, and acne severity.
- Customised Treatment Plan: The settings are adjusted to your skin type and acne severity for optimal results.
Most patients see improvements after just one session, with a series of treatments often recommended for long-term skin transformation.
Additional Treatments for Enhanced Results
For a comprehensive acne treatment plan, Laser Acne Therapy can be combined with other professional treatments to exfoliate, heal, and prevent future breakouts, such as:
- iS Clinical Exfoliating Clear Skin Facial – Gently removes dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and helps reduce acne scars.
- HydraFacial – Deep cleanses, extracts impurities, and infuses the skin with hydration, leaving it refreshed and clearer.
- LED Light Therapy – Reduces bacteria, soothes inflammation, and speeds up the healing process of active acne.
- Medical-Grade Skincare for Home Care – A tailored skincare regimen featuring iS Clinical and PCA Skin products can help maintain clear, balanced skin between treatments.
Aftercare Guidelines
Post-treatment, mild redness or swelling may occur but typically resolves within a few hours. To support healing and maximise results, follow these aftercare steps:
- Apply a cold compress to reduce any temporary redness or warmth.
- Avoid direct sun exposure and always apply SPF to protect treated areas.
- Refrain from harsh skincare products (such as exfoliants or retinol) for a few days.
- Keep the skin hydrated with soothing, non-comedogenic moisturisers.
- Maintain a consistent skincare routine with recommended medical-grade products to prevent future breakouts.
By combining Laser Acne Therapy with additional in-clinic treatments and the right homecare routine, you can achieve long-lasting acne control and a clearer, more radiant complexion.
