Chemical & Laser treatment for acne
Acne generally appears when dead skin cells clog the hair follicles because of excess oil production. The p. acnes bacteria feeds on oil and causes the inflammation that typifies a pimple. Bacteria, imbalance in hormones, stress, and diet can also be at fault. People of all ages can suffer from acne and the emotional stress that comes with it. Fortunately, we offer safe and effective laser treatments for acne at Physimed MediSpa.
IPL Photo-rejuvenation
Skin rejuvenation for acne
IPL (intense pulsed light) is a versatile photo-rejuvenation treatment for the face, hands, neck, and chest. The energy from IPL stimulates collagen and elastin production that helps shrink enlarged pores and offers many other benefits. Patients report noticing a significant improvement in their skin in terms of complexion and clarity after just one treatment.
Laser treatment
Laser treatment for acne
Our Fotona Laser treatment provides a complete and thorough solution to the problem of acne. The Nd:YAG laser safely penetrates the skin to reach the right depth for treating your acne issues. Its light energy targets overactive sebaceous glands and reduces the possibility of new active acne developing. For acne inflammations that are currently active, the Fotona laser reduces the inflammation via photoselective absorption and controlled heating that destroys targeted glands. Finally, the laser also kills bacteria.
Medical-grade chemical peels

Morpheus8
Radiofrequency & microneedling
Morpheus8 is fractional radio-frequency micro-needling. In addition to the micro-needling benefits, Morpheus8’s radio-frequency sends arcs of energy through the skin cells. The energy heats them and jump starts the skin’s collagen and elastin production. The heat also shrinks the oil glands to limit the amount of pore-clogging sebum it can produce.
Phototherapy
Phototherapy is a great adjuvant treatment for stubborn acne. It involves a light with a specific wavelength adjusted to kill acne-causing bacteria residing on the skin. This bacteria is sensitive to this light; in its presence, toxic substances form and kill the bacteria. Phototherapy additionally will shrink your skin’s oil glands. This limits the amount of pore-clogging oil produced by the glands.
