Every person is unique, even in the treatment of acne. The average treatment course would consist of 8-12 treatments done once to twice per week.
Most people can be treated with AFT treatments however there are a few specific cases where treatments are not advised. Individuals who are photosensitive or who are on photosensitizing medications should not undergo AFT therapy. People who have been on Accutane need to be off the medication for 6 months prior to AFT treatments. Anyone who is pregnant should wait until after the pregnancy to have AFT treatments.
Treatments are fast, safe and relatively painless. AFT allows clinicians to treat the desired area with minimal epidermal (skin) damage. Treatments feel like a gentle rubber band snapping on the face. The time to cover the average face is approximately 10-15 minutes. Downtime is virtually eliminated. One can easily have a treatment done over the lunch hour.
Advanced Fluorescence Technology (AFT) allows clinicians to use light to treat a variety of dermal conditions safely. With AFT treatments the handpiece is passed over the skin, releasing gentle pulses of light into the skin. The AFT light heats the sebaceous gland and either destroys the gland and/or destroys the bacteria within the gland.
