Smoothbeam Laser

Are you tired of acne breakouts and uneven skin texture?

Discover the transformative power of Smoothbeam laser treatment. This innovative technology targets the root cause of acne, reduces inflammation, and stimulates collagen production for a smoother, more youthful complexion.

What is the Candela Smoothbeam Laser?

The Smoothbeam laser is an innovative dermatological service designed to revitalize your skin by stimulating collagen production. By gently heating the deeper layers of your skin, Smoothbeam promotes the growth of new, healthy collagen, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance.

This innovative treatment combines a gentle laser with a proprietary cooling device to ensure optimal results while protecting your skin’s surface. Experience the transformative power of Smoothbeam and unlock your skin’s true potential.

Can I Use Diode Laser Treatment for Acne?

Yes, diode laser treatment, specifically the Smoothbeam Laser, is an effective option for acne.

Unlike traditional acne treatments that primarily target surface-level bacteria, Smoothbeam goes deeper to address the root cause: overactive sebaceous glands. This innovative laser treatment can significantly improve acne conditions by regulating oil production and reducing inflammation.

While Smoothbeam for acne is highly effective, it’s often used with other skin treatments for optimal results. Your dermatologist can recommend the best treatment plan based on your skin condition.

Smoothbeam Laser Treatment: What to Expect

Here’s what you can expect during your Smoothbeam laser treatment:

Consultation:

Your doctor will assess your skin concerns and determine if Smoothbeam is the right treatment for you.
They’ll discuss your goals and desired results.
You’ll need to avoid sun exposure for 4-6 weeks before treatment.

The Treatment:

The procedure typically takes between 10-30 minutes, depending on the treatment area and desired intensity.
You and your doctor will wear protective eyewear.
The doctor will use a handpiece with a cooling spray to deliver the laser light.
The cooling feature helps make the procedure comfortable; many patients report feeling a tingling sensation or mild snapping. A topical anesthetic can also be used for additional comfort.
Depending on the treatment intensity, it may be considered a “lunchtime procedure” or require a short recovery period.

Post-Treatment:

Discuss your expected results with your doctor. Several treatments may be needed for optimal results.
Avoid sun exposure and harsh skincare products for at least 4-6 weeks after treatment or until your doctor advises otherwise.
Some temporary side effects, like mild redness, swelling, or discoloration, may occur. These typically resolve on their own within a short time frame.

How Long Does the Smoothbeam Laser Treatment Last?

The duration of Smoothbeam laser results can vary depending on several factors, including:

Individual skin type: How your skin responds to the treatment.
The severity of the condition: The initial state of your skin will impact the longevity of results.
Number of treatment sessions: More sessions may lead to longer-lasting outcomes.
Sun exposure and skincare routine: Protecting your skin from the sun and following a proper skincare regimen can help maintain results.

Generally, patients can expect to see results lasting anywhere from 12 months to several years. Many people opt for maintenance treatments every 6-8 weeks to prolong the benefits.

It’s essential to consult with a dermatologist to discuss your specific goals and create a personalized treatment plan. They can provide more accurate estimates based on your individual circumstances.

Is Smoothbeam Laser Treatment Safe?

Yes, Smoothbeam laser treatment is considered safe when performed by a qualified dermatologist. The laser is designed to target specific tissues while protecting the surrounding skin. The built-in cooling system further enhances safety and comfort during the procedure.

While side effects are generally minimal, it’s essential to be aware of potential reactions:

Mild redness: This is the most common side effect and typically subsides within a few hours to a few days.
Temporary swelling: Some patients may experience slight swelling in the treated area.
Dryness: The skin may feel dry after the treatment.
Increased sensitivity: The skin might be more sensitive to sunlight for a short period.

To minimize the risk of side effects and optimize results, follow your dermatologist’s post-treatment care instructions carefully. This may include avoiding sun exposure, using sunscreen, and applying recommended skincare products.
