Acne laser treatment in the City of London
Acne laser treatment targets overactive oil glands to control acne and leave skin clearer
Acne Laser Treatment
Acne is a condition that affects all ages and skin types. Our Nd:YAG laser targets the overactive, oil producing sebaceous glands.
Less oil production means less inflammation, clearer skin and less future scarring.
What is acne?
Acne is a condition often caused by an excess production of oil by the sebaceous glands in the skin. It is more common during puberty when a large increase in hormones drive greater oil production.
The excess oil and dead skin cells plug pores causing white heads and black heads. If not cleared, bacteria and pressure build up causing a red, painful pustule.
If left untreated, acne can cause permanent scarring which then requires more aggressive treatment to improve. It’s important to treat acne as soon as possible to prevent further skin damage.
For best results, we treat acne with different treatments: advanced (or prescription) skin care, skin peels and laser.
Acne laser treatment
Acne treatment with our Fotona Nd:YAG laser is comfortable and straightforward. We clean your skin and then pass the laser hand-piece over the affected areas. The wavelength of the laser targets the overactive sebaceous glands and slowly heats them until they can no longer function.
How will you look after treatment?
Immediately after treatment, your skin can look a little pink and will feel warm. This will settle quickly allowing you to continue with your day as normal.
How long does it take to see results?
Over the days and weeks after treatment, there are fewer sebaceous glands, less oil and less acne. Treatments are repeated every few weeks.
We recommend using specialist skin care e.g. ZO Oil Control Pads and considering a course of skin peels to compliment your treatment.

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Rimi for administering Botox to control my underarm sweating. Her expertise and warm demeanor put me at ease, and the procedure was virtually painless. I am thrilled with the results and highly recommend her for Botox treatments.
