New Acne Treatment at SkinCare Physicians! SkinCare Physicians was among the first sites in the world to use Photopneumatic Technology (Photo = Light; Pneumatic = Vacuum/Suction) and is proud to offer Isolaz, powered by this innovative new technology. Isolaz Acne Treatments are painless, non-invasive treatments for acne. The quick 20 minute Isolaz procedure requires no anesthetic and uses suction to help mechanically clear clogged pores while the light helps destroy acne causing bacteria. Patients love the instant gratification that comes with seeing "white specs" literally sucked out of their pores. Over the course of the treatment, patients notice a reduction in pore size, less oily skin and of course a very visible improvement in their acne.
Typically, patients require 4-5 treatment sessions and results are usually visible 24-48 hours after treatment. The Isolaz is FDA cleared for the treatment of numerous types of acne and has been featured in Vogue, Elle, Allure, Harpers Bazaar, Self, New Beauty, New York Weddings,The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal in the past four months.
