What to Expect During Laser Acne Treatment
Dr. Odueyungbo will begin by assessing your skin and determining the best approach. During laser acne treatment, a handheld device delivers precise laser energy to the treatment area. Patients often describe the feeling as a warm or tingling sensation, which is usually well tolerated.
Treatments are quick, often completed within 30 minutes, and most patients return to daily activities right away. Depending on the severity of acne, a series of treatments may be recommended to achieve the best results.
