Going For Acne Laser Treatment? |
|
Common skin problems related to acne include skin
rashes; popping of blackheads, whiteheads and nodules in the form of
pimples and acne; and formation of dry, oily areas and reddish-brown
blotches on skin. Greasy and spicy foods can also cause acne prone skin.
Healing of the acne lesion is not the end of the problem. It is
the beginning of a new series of problems, to solve which a lot of
patience and understanding is required. Repeated trips to the clinic of
the dermatologist are necessary thus.
The post inflammatory
effects caused by acne are part of the skin's natural healing process.
Medication and practices in vogue can only help facilitate this healing
process. Laser therapy, in the treatment of acne, is still at the
kindergarten level.
Researchers and scientists in this area are
themselves confused a lot, and so far, unable to arrive at definite
conclusions. Their problem is also the same as faced by the specialists
of acne treatment in other branches of science.
No single
treatment is right for everyone. Type of skin varies from person to
person. The topography and skin texture of each person is different.
Therefore, the person who opts for and the person who gives treatment,
both have to be realistic about the results, while tasking up the option
of laser treatment.
Two types of acne patients are
likely to opt for laser therapy. One, those who are interested in
getting rid of the scars, pimples or whatever it may be, on emergency
basis and secondly those who are willing to wait but wanting to have a
permanent cure. The typical side effects that go with other systems of
acne treatment are applicable to laser therapy as well.The damage is
likely to be caused by the laser system that is still in the stage of
research and development. Well, no one should be in a hurry to own it.
Laser
treatment specialists are also fully aware of their own limitations
about the present status of this system. Proper skin care will still
remain a problem even after you get rid of the unwanted part of the
skin. Improved tissue metabolism that will boost the blood flow to
pores, causing them to open, is the only answer. e researchers are not
themselves convinced about the efficacy of laser treatment, how can your
dermatologist advise you to go fort it? Even if he does, you please be
guided by what you have decided for you!
