THE SCIENCE
The Isolaz Profusion System is the only FDA approved device to treat comedonal and pustular acne.
It is an innovative therapy based on the photopneumatic concept which uses vacuum to clear pores of clogging material and skin debris while simultaneously delivering laser light that kills acne-causing bacteria.
Isolaz is manufactured by the Aesthera Corporation, Pleasanton, CA.
THE TREATMENT
Appropriate eye protection is provided
Sessions take 15 minutes and are repeated every 2 weeks for 3 to 5 treatments.
Two passes are made over the entire face or other acne affected areas. A vacuum gently lifts the acne impurities closer to the skin’s surface and extract the whiteheads and blackheads. In a fraction of a second, a painless laser helps destroy acne causing bacteria, shrink pore size and decrease oil production.
Pustules are then individually treated with extra passes in order to empty their content and get better exposure to the laser light
Patients often obtain dramatic improvement early on.
The more resistant patients are treated with additional photodynamic therapy.
