ACNE TREATMENT - ISOLAZ

• Isolaz is the only clinically proven aesthetic device that clears acne lesions within 24-48 hours.
• 


Greater then 80% of patients were satisfied or highly satisfied with acne improvement.



• 90% acne clearance after 4 treatments (average physician rated clearance.) 



•  Effective on non-responders to traditional therapies including patients who had tried topicals, antibiotics and other lasers. 



How Isolaz™ Acne Therapy Works

1. The vacuum energy mechanically opens up the pores and removes sebum.
2. The laser/light energy destroys the bacteria that causes the abnormal   production of sebum, as well as  the redness, tenderness and swelling commonly associated with acne lesions.

Acne Overview

• Acne (medically known as acne vulgaris) is perhaps the most common skin condition affecting people around the world.
•  Acne affects people of all ages, though most commonly people in their teens, 20s, 30s, 40s, and sometimes unfortunately, even beyond.

Who Gets Acne & Why

• Acne has few boundaries and occurs on the face, neck, upper arms, chest, back, and shoulders.  While     both males and females can get acne, research shows that outbreaks in males may be worse because     they have more skin oils.
• Heredity also plays an important role-making some people more genetically predisposed to outbreaks     than others.  People with highly sensitive immune systems are also more likely to suffer from acne as they are more sensitive and susceptible to bacteria that are trapped in hair follicles.
• Other causes of acne include use of cosmetics containing oil, environmental pollutants, drugs including     androgens and barbiturates and     humidity.
• According to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), acne is caused by the overproduction of  androgens, hormones that are present in both males and females.  Androgens most commonly increase during puberty, stimulating the sebaceous glans in the skin to enlarge and increase the  production of sebum.  This increase in oil production coupled with follicular debris composed of dead     skin cells results in blockages in the sebaceous glands.

How Does Acne Develop

• Acne is commonly described as a disease of pilosebaceous units (PSUs). PSUs consist of a sebaceous gland connected to a canal or follicle that contains a fine hair.
• While PSUs are found all over the body, they most densely occur on the face, upper back, and chest. Sebaceous glands make an oily substance called sebum.  Sebum normally empties onto the skin's surface though the opening of the follicle, commonly called a "pore."  Keratinocytes line the follicle.
• Hair, sebum, and keratinocytes that fill the narrow follicle may produce a plug or blockage that prevents sebum from reaching the surface of the skin through the pore.  The mixture of oil and cells create a  perfect breeding ground for P. acnes bacteria that normally live on the skin to grow and multiply inside the clogged follicles.
• These bacteria produce chemicals and enzymes that cause inflammation. Redness, swelling, and  tenderness commonly associated with acne lesions     are characteristic skin responses to the presence of bacteria.  When the wall of the plugged follicle breaks, their content comprising sebum,  dead skin cells, and bacteria erupts into nearby skin--leading to what we commonly refer to as acne.
