Living with acne can be extremely uncomfortable,
both physically and emotionally. Trying to find
correction for your acne can be a life long struggle
of trying product after product and treatment after
treatment.
 All acne is a disorder of the
pilosebaceous unit, which is made up of a hair
follicle, sebaceous gland, and a hair. Acne develops
when some of the pores (through which oil normally
flows from the oil gland to reach the skin surface)
become blocked, resulting in trapping of oil within
the skin pores.
Chemical Peels and Acne
A
chemical skin peel, which removes the damaged outer layers
to reveal the clearer, smoother, tighter, and more
radiant skin. A chemical peel is a popular and
effective non-surgical treatment for both active
acne and acne scarring. In a chemical peel, a
solution is applied to the skin which removes the
damaged outer layers to reveal the clearer,
smoother, tighter, and more radiant skin underneath.
Nova specializes in the Vitalize Peel and Rejuvenize
Peel, as well as, the
VI Peel.
Palomar Lux V treatments
Acne IPL treatments with Palomar technology target
and destroy the skin bacteria responsible for acne
to help prevent future breakouts from occurring on
faces, chests and backs. Treating acne with pulsed
light can deliver better results, especially on
inflammatory acne, without the side effects
associated with oral acne medications.
Palomar Lux V treatments with Photo Dynamic
Therapy (PDT)
PDT is a treatment performed with a topical
photosensitizing agent called Levulinic Acid or ALA.
ALA is applied to the skin and then activated by the
wavelengths of light in the Lux V treatment. This
unique treatment has the ability to minimize pores
and reduce oil production, in turn effectively
treating stubborn acne vulgaris, acne and Rosacea.
In addition to targeting acne, this treatment also
can remove sun damage, fine lines, blotchy
pigmentation as well as, precancerous spots called
Actinic Keratoses.
