If you’re still struggling with acne breakouts and are interested in acne reduction, you’re not alone. Acne is among the most common skin conditions in the world, and it affects up to 50 million people each year – in the United States alone. Research shows that up to 55% of adults aged 20 to 40 suffer from low-grade acne and oily skin. Regardless of how common it is, acne is still a struggle to live with. The good news is you don’t have to anymore.

Acne can take many different forms. For example, it can cause blackheads and whiteheads, which are essentially clogged pores filled with sebum, or oil and cellular debris. Whiteheads are clogged pores that haven’t pushed all the way to the skin’s surface while blackheads have (this causes their dark color). Acne can also take the form of papules and pustules. Papules are tiny pimples that measure less than 0.5 centimeters across and are sometimes called “pinheads.” Pustules are another type of pimple – they are larger than papules and contain pus. Other painful forms of acne such as nodules and cysts can also form. Nodules are larger papules that form deeper into the skin, whereas cysts, which resemble boils, are closed pockets of tissue that contain pus.

With the right treatment for acne reduction, however, you can effectively target both the cause and visible symptoms of acne-related skin conditions like the conditions mentioned above.

Advanced tools and specialized devices using intense pulsed light, or IPL, can be used for acne reduction.

Solas Acne Treatments use dual lights to heal existing acne-related inflammation, while also destroying acne-causing bacteria, ultimately minimizing future breakouts.

Sometimes referred to as IPL photofacial for acne, IPL for acne produces noticeably smoother, healthier-looking skin that you’ll be happy to show off. Learn more about IPL for facial acne with our FAQs below.
