By using the Palomar Lux V, our Orlando-area patients can target and destroy the bacteria responsible for acne, preventing future breakouts.

Is IPL Acne Treatment Right for Me?

If you suffer from constant breakouts, then our IPL acne treatment in Orlando may be a good choice for you. Many of our patients use the Palomar Lux V to tackle moderate inflammatory acne that appears on the face, but the procedure can also help eliminate pimples on the neck, chest, back, shoulders, upper arms, legs and scalp.

How Does IPL Acne Treatment Work?

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's surface) become blocked, resulting in the trapping of oil.

The Palomar Lux V dual-band hand piece employs a broad spectrum of ultraviolet light to attack acne on two fronts. First, the porphyrins, or pigment, absorb the light, which destroys the acne bacteria for a quick clearance of current acne breakouts. Second, the longer wavelength penetrates deeper into the hyperactive sebaceous glands and slows down their metabolism to prevent future acne from forming.

Another aspect of our IPL acne treatment in Orlando is the collaboration of the Palomar Lux V with Photo Dynamic Therapy (PDT). PDT is 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 Palomar Lux V. 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 procedure can also correct sun damage, fine lines and blotchy pigmentation, as well as remove precancerous spots called actinic keratoses.
