Acne Treatment
Acne is one of the most widespread skin ailments in the US affecting more than 60 million people every year. This frustrating and challenging skin concern is faced by both adolescents and adults. Acne includes pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, small lumps, or any clogged pores. It is generally accompanied by inflammation and redness. Though acne affects females and males, females usually have flare-ups due to hormonal shifts whereas males tend to have long-lasting severe conditions.
Skin blemishes even in the minor cases of acne can lead to emotional distress and physical disfigurement. In severe forms, acne may cause permanent scarring.

Causes of Acne
Acne occurs when your pores are blocked or clogged from bacteria buildup, overproduction of oil by sebaceous glands, or accumulation of dead skin cells. These buildups in the hair follicle form a soft plug that compels the follicle wall to protrude and bulge out from the skin resulting in a lesion. Excessive oil production may be due to a combination of factors including hormone fluctuation (during adolescence, puberty, menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and menopause), stress, genetic factors, unhealthy diet, climatic changes, or use of certain medication in few cases. You may notice acne often on your face, neck, back, and chest, but they can appear anywhere on your body parts.
Regardless of the cause of acne, it can have adverse long-lasting effects on your skin’s health and aesthetic appearance. The most important thing to know is that any of the acne conditions can be treated better than ever with the help of our skin experts in Fort Pierce at RN Laser & Med Spa.

Laser Technology
The high-frequency laser technology offers a comprehensive treatment of acne that provides short and long-term improvement of the skin appearance. The laser produces thermal energy which is absorbed through the skin. It helps in:
- Reducing inflammation
- Partly destructing sebaceous glands to reduce the production of oil
- Speedy skin healing
- Prevent future breakouts
- Stimulation of production of proteins within the skin
This technique delivers predictable and consistent results for acne patients. Each treatment is customized according to the patient’s unique needs.
Blue-Light Therapy
Acne-causing bacteria and overactive oil glands are destructed through the blue light photodynamic therapy combined with photosensitizing topical products. The skin tissues rejuvenate after the treatment to exhibit fresh new skin with reduced oil production and refined pores. It shrinks the pore size leaving the skin super smooth with a fairer complexion. This therapy is repeated generally after an interval of three to four weeks to attain the best results. It reduces acne and prevents any breakouts in the future.
