Acne Treatment Toronto


Tired of unsuccessfully trying every medication available to get rid of your acne? Now there is a quick and easy solution. Our Palomar Starlux 500 System is FDA approved in acne clearing! Most patients require just a few treatments to completely eliminate their acne problems, and after just one treatment skin is drastically improved.

The Palomar Starlux 500 is currently the most powerful aesthetic light system in the world. The award winning system uses the LuxV IPL handpiece to target acne at its root cause. In some cases, for achieving the best results, IPL is used in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures such as peels and blue light technology. Your specialist will make a customized plan for you based on your skin conditions.


F.A.Q. about acne and acne treatment

What causes acne?

Acne occurs when the skin’s sebaceous glands become overactive, creating cellular debris that plugs the glands. Bacteria accumulates in the blocked gland and the result is pimples, cysts and inflammation.

How the laser acne treatment works?

The Palomar Starlux System works on active acne by killing the acne bacteria and it works in a separate manner on the sebaceous (oil) glands. It is often beneficial to individuals with very resistant acne who have not had success with medications. The LuxV short wavelength is easy for absorption by porphyrins; this destroys the acne bacteria for a quick clearance of current acne breakouts. The longer wavelength can penetrate deeper into the hyperactive sebaceous glands and slow down their metabolism to prevent future acne from forming. Pulsed light systems are similar to lasers, but with a larger, more diffuse beam for safe and comfortable treatment.

What is the acne treatment like?

The Pulsed Light Treatment involves the use of a handheld that gently and quickly flashes a high-intensity light onto targeted areas of your skin. You may experience a slight stinging, similar to being snapped with a rubber band, as you are being treated, but most people do not experience this as painful. You will wear protective goggles over your eyes during the procedure. Your skin may be slightly red after treatment. This temporary redness, which may look and feel like a slight sunburn, may last a few hours to a few days. It is recommended that you wear a sunscreen following treatment to protect your skin. After treatment, the acne blemishes shrink and become less noticeable and then fade after approximately one week.

Following the acne treatment, your medical aesthetician may recommend a skin care product to speed up the recovery. At Q Esthetics Laser Clinic, we offer the innovative Revision skin care products.
