Skincare Questions About Acne Laser Treatment

James asks…

Can I get Acne laser treatment at 16? And where can i get it in the uk?

I'm 15 now but will be 16 shortly and I'm thinking of getting Laser acne treatment but I am unsure where and how well this will work.
What are the risks?
Where can I get this in the UK?
How much would it cost?

Joann answers:

I think you can get writtne consent form your parents. It can cost anywhere from $200-$500 per treatment here in the US

I had it done and went 7 times and nothing changed. I spent a small fortune It was not fun at all.

I also tried Proavtive, Neutrogena, lots of department store brands (clinique, chanel) and non of them worked.

I now use a skin regime that is outstanding and haven't had a pimple since. Its an anti-aging system by Mary Kay. I have very sensitive skin so this system works best for me because it doesnt try to throw harsh chemicals at the pimples. It just cleanses my skin to a health glow.

If you need any more help feel free to email me

Donna asks…

What is the best laser treatment for acne?

I heard that there are several acne laser treatments. which one kills the bacteria that causes the acne & improve the look of old ones?

Joann answers:

Acne is not caused by bacteria.

Most people want to treat acne scars rather than acne.It is like treating measles scars rather than measles.Acne is a skin condition caused by the internal imbalance.All medicines and creams which help to remove acne scars contain benzoyl peroxide.

You can regain your internal balance and cure your acne completely and permanently by natural techniques.I have done a small research on various products which claim to cure acne.Acne No More is a program with user rating 4.5/5.You can try it here

What is the most effective way to kill acne - laser treatment results?? Accutane already completed...?

I had severe acne and completed 2 courses of accutane over a period of 5 years. Now ive been off my second round for about 10 months and the acne is slowly creeping back up on me. I want to stop it before it gets uncontrollable like it was before, and I dont think doctors can even GIVE more than 2 rounds of accutane.

I mean my acne wasnt as bad as acne cases can possibly get, but it WAS as stubborn as they get. So in other words dont suggest creams, antibiotics, other topicals... tried them all already.

Whats the effectiveness of laser treatment, and how long does it last??
Um i have very good personal hygiene, maybe some people need to work on their rudeness....

ALSO how much can this cost? And how long do the results last?

Joann answers:

You can do accutane more than 2 times. But if mine comes back again too I think I might look into the laser also. I think you need to wait a full year before getting the laser treatment after you finish accutane. Best of luck.

George asks…

Is acne laser treatment advisable if you but acne treatment gel on your face?

I've had acne on and off since I was 12 and I am now 19 and still suffering from it. From the age of 13 or 14 i've been using an acne treatment gel called panoxyl gel 5 and only just a week ago the dermatolagist put me on another stronger acne treatment gel called isotrexin.

I would love to get acne laser treatment to treat my acne, but I think I heard somewhere that you shouldn't get this type of treatment if you have used acne creams or gels within the past year.

is this true? and if there is anyone who has had laser acne treatment, how effective was it and did your acne return?

thanks : )
