BLU-U LIGHT THERAPY
There are many treatments for mild to moderate acne. The BLU-U is a special blue light that can kill the P. acnes bacteria in your skin. This is the bacteria that is responsible for causing inflammation in the sebaceous gland and leads to inflammatory acne.
Blu-U Light therapy works best for acne that is characterized by red/inflamed pimples. In these circumstances, Blu-U can be used alone and unlike oral therapies that require continuous treatment (over at least 3 months), it has been proven to work much faster.
Treatments are simple. You sit with your face close to the blue light for 15 - 30 minutes once or twice per week, usually for 6 - 8 weeks. The treatment can be continued in the future as needed. The treatment is safe, even for pregnant woman. There are no side effects. Specifically, there is no downtime, no irritation, no redness, no peeling, no scarring and no photosensitivity. More frequently, combination treatments with creams, chemical peels or even oral medications are recommended. In this case, less Blu-U treatments are needed. |
