Does a photofacial help reduce or prevent acne from coming back? i have acne that tingles before surfacing and hurts. feel very deep in my cheeks.

May help a little: Photofacial can help but won't prevent acne from coming back. There are specific ipl machines for acne that work very well, however, none will prevent it from coming back.

Acne/ Photofacial: Photofacial or ipl treatments are helpful in reducing acne breakouts by killing p. Acnes, the bacteria implicated in the acne cycle. It also helps control inflammation. Isolaz uses vacuum & broadband light (bbl) to loosen and extract oils, dirt and blackheads from pores. Bbl, reduces redness and destroys acne-causing bacteria. Acne control is an ongoing process. Optimal skin care is critical.

Helps: Photofacials that use filtered light alone or in conjunction with a topical chemical can help to reduce bacteria and oil production that heightens acne outbreaks. Treatments can range from twice weekly to every 6 weeks. You should understand that several distinct factors promote acne. A successful plan will consider hormonal and nutritional factors as well. Be well and live well.
