Acne can have a tremendous impact on your daily life and self-esteem and all too often, acne is not limited to the teenage years. It often takes time to find an effective regimen to treat acne and the best regimen for any one patient is truly unique to them. We offer conventional topical and systemic therapies including isotretinoin (also referred to as Accutane), as well as non-traditional therapies such as Blu-U blue light therapy. Once acne is under better control, laser therapy with the VBeam Perfecta or Fraxel lasers is an option for any residual redness or acne scarring.

Blu-U Light Acne Treatment

Blu-U blue light is a non-invasive therapy that utilizes safe and painless blue light without the use of antibiotics. Blu-U light treats acne by shrinking the skin’s oil glands. This can drastically reduce the amount of oil within the pores thereby reducing blackheads and whiteheads. Blu-U light also destroys the bacteria on the skin that causes breakouts. Blu-U light may also improve the skin’s overall texture and may speed the resolution of acne-induced skin discoloration.
