Laser Treatment for Pimples: How Does It Work?

Acne breakouts and the scars they can leave behind are a top cosmetic concern for teenagers and adults alike. The good news is that several advanced treatments have been developed to help clear existing blemishes and diminish the appearance of scarring left by past acne. Excel V+™ laser treatment for pimples is one such option available at Kessel Dermatology in Hamilton Square, NJ. 

Laser Treatment for Pimples: How Does It Work?

Because acne is a complex condition that can range from mild to severe and change over time, it requires careful, individualized treatment. While topical and oral medications can help to control breakouts, these treatments often take time and trial and error to work. 

For faster, more powerful results, patients struggling with ongoing acne may consider excel V+™ laser treatment for pimples. Using two ultra-precise wavelengths of long-pulsed light, this state-of-the-art laser system is proven to reduce inflammation and decrease acne breakouts for many patients. It can also be used to effectively pinpoint and treat acne scars by penetrating deep into the skin and encouraging production of elastin/collagen to smooth and fill scars. 

Here’s a step-by-step overview of the process for this treatment at Kessel Dermatology:

• Meet with one of our qualified skin care providers – During your free initial consultation, we’ll help you decide if excel V+™ laser treatment is an appropriate option to help resolve your current skin concerns. Depending on your unique situation, we may suggest combining laser therapy with other acne treatment methods for maximum efficacy. 
• Carry out your treatment plan – If you decide to proceed with excel V+™ laser treatment, we’ll perform the procedure right in our office, typically in around 15-30 minutes. Your provider will place the excel V+™ handpiece over your problem areas. FYI: No injections or anesthetics are needed, as the excel V+™ uses a proprietary cooling mechanism to minimize discomfort and protect your skin.
