Acne breakouts don’t always end when you graduate from high school. In fact, it’s common to experience this upsetting skin issue when you are an adult. At Dermatology & Skin Care Associates in West Chester, Ohio, we can use the Sebacia treatment to decrease your acne and give you clear, attractive skin.
The Sebacia Treatment is a revolutionary procedure designed to combat adult acne. It involves the application of Sebacia particles, which are gold microparticles, to the skin. These particles are then activated using a specialized laser, targeting the sebaceous glands responsible for acne formation. By reducing the activity of these glands, the Sebacia Treatment helps to decrease acne breakouts and improve the overall appearance of the skin.
The Sebacia Treatment is suitable for adults who are experiencing acne breakouts. It is particularly effective for individuals with mild to moderate acne. However, it is important to note that certain medical conditions and skin types may not be suitable for this treatment. During a consultation, our dermatologists will evaluate your skin condition and determine if you are a suitable candidate for the Sebacia Treatment.
The Sebacia Treatment process begins with a consultation and evaluation of your skin. Our dermatologists will assess your acne severity and discuss your treatment goals. If you are deemed a suitable candidate, the treatment will be scheduled.
Prior to the treatment, you will be provided with instructions on how to prepare your skin. This may involve avoiding certain skincare products or medications. On the day of the treatment, the Sebacia particles will be applied to your skin, targeting the areas affected by acne.
Once the particles are applied, a specialized laser will be used to activate them. This process is painless and generally well-tolerated. After the treatment, you will be given post-treatment care instructions and scheduled for follow-up appointments to monitor your progress.
HOW LONG DOES THE SEBACIA TREATMENT TAKE?
The treatment typically takes around 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the treated area.
IS THE TREATMENT PAINFUL?
No, the Sebacia Treatment is generally painless. Some patients may experience a mild warming sensation during the laser activation, but it is well-tolerated.
ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS?
The Sebacia Treatment is considered safe with minimal side effects. Some patients may experience temporary redness or mild swelling, which usually subsides within a few hours.
HOW MANY SESSIONS ARE REQUIRED?
The number of sessions required may vary depending on the severity of your acne. Typically, multiple sessions are recommended for optimal results. Our dermatologists will create a personalized treatment plan for you.
CAN THE SEBACIA TREATMENT BE COMBINED WITH OTHER ACNE TREATMENTS?
Yes, the Sebacia Treatment can be combined with other acne treatments, such as topical medications or oral antibiotics. Our dermatologists will assess your specific needs and recommend the most suitable combination for you.
IS THE TREATMENT SUITABLE FOR ALL SKIN TYPES?
