The appearance of the odd pimple isn’t really anything to worry about. However, when acne becomes excessive, it can lead to scarring and a rough, bumpy skin texture. If this has occurred, ADVATx or AgeJET may be the right treatment for you. These treatments can help you get the skin you deserve.

What Causes Acne and Scarring?

Acne is caused by the buildup of bacteria in our pores. The quantity of this bacteria is not always within our control. It’s common for people to develop acne due to genetics; some of us can have worse acne than others. Pockmarks, or acne scars, occur when our bodies try to counteract damage by releasing collagen. As a result of this rapid and inaccurate release, our skin becomes thicker and less flexible, giving it that characteristic bumpy texture.

Acne Treatment Options

ADVATx is an ideal option for addressing severe breakouts and facial scarring. This FDA-cleared non-ablative laser system is designed to address active acne and reduce subsequent acne scarring. Unlike ablative systems, non-ablative lasers do not remove the top layer of the skin during treatment. Instead, they rely on heat to produce results and are gentler. You can see an improvement in your skin shortly after your visit. However, several sessions may be needed to get the best outcome.

AgeJET is an advanced nitrogen plasma skin therapy device. When nitrogen plasma is gently applied to your skin, it initiates a unique thermal injury, prompting a natural healing response. The magic lies in the controlled micro-injuries created by the plasma, which trigger a cascade of beneficial processes, helping to reduce your acne.
