Photodynamic Therapy - Acne Treatment
Acne treatments using Levulan Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)
is the
most recent advance in acne therapy. Perfect Skin laser Center was
one of the first clinics in Arizona to offer this revolutionary acne
treatment. We have been getting
excellent results treating men and women of all ages from all over
Phoenix, Scottsdale, Chandler area. Photodynamic
acne therapy involves the application of Levulan ( 5-aminolevulinic
acid), a photosensitizing agent, which is then activated with blue-light.
This results in significant improvement in moderate to severe cystic
acne.

Photodynamic Therapy - Skin Rejuvenatuion
Photorejuvenation
using intense pulsed light (IPL) is now the gold standard of non-ablative
skin treatments. The most recent advance in photorejuvenation is
photodynamic therapy (PDT) combined with IPL, known as photodynamic
skin rejuvenation. Photodynamic skin rejuvenation involves the application
of Levulan, a photosensitizing agent, which is then activated with
IPL and blue-light. This results in significant improvement in precancerous
conditions such as AKs, actinically damaged skin, sun damaged skin,
moderate to severe cystic acne and potentially superficial skin cancers.
