    A narrow, honest scope

    Active acne care with a clearly defined scope.

    Provider-selected Fotona Nd:YAG settings can be considered for selected active acne concerns. The treatment is planned around the type of breakout, skin sensitivity, medications, and any medical care already in place.

    This offering does not include acne-scar correction. Persistent, painful, cystic, or medically concerning acne should be evaluated by a dermatology professional.

    Treatment focus

    • Focused on selected active breakouts
    • Adjusted to skin response and current care
    • Can complement, but does not replace, medical acne care

    Some acne needs medical care first

    Open wounds, infection, painful cysts, sudden severe breakouts, pregnancy-related medication changes, or prescription acne treatment can affect whether and when laser treatment is appropriate.

    Treatment planning

    Start by identifying what is active now.

    1. 01

      Review the breakout pattern

      The provider looks at the active concern and asks about products, prescriptions, sensitivity, and previous treatment response.

    2. 02

      Confirm suitability

      If cosmetic laser care is appropriate, settings are selected for the area. If the concern needs diagnosis or prescription care, we recommend dermatology instead.

    3. 03

      Reassess the response

      Aftercare stays gentle and sun-aware. Future treatment is based on how the skin responds, not a universal session count.

    Consultation-led treatment

    Pricing and the number of visits are confirmed only after the provider assesses the active concern.
