Laser Treatments to Help Cure Acne
Posted on September 2, 2008
» Filed Under Acne |
In recent years laser treatments have really become very popular and proven to be a faster, and sometimes more efficient means for treating many conditions. Acne is one of them. There are a few different types of laser treatments that you can speak with your dermatologist about, such at laser skin resurfacing and Fraxel laser treatments.
Acne sufferers know that acne can leave lasting scars and damage the skin tremendously. In more prevalent forms of severe acne these scars can last forever without treatment. Fortunately with such new advancements in treatments using laser these scars can almost vanish in less than week.
Laser treatments can reduce or eliminate acne scars, wrinkles, sun spots, brown spots, reduce the risk of cancer, improve skin tone, tightens skin, and is usually just an easy one time procedure with very little pain and downtime. Though the side effects of such lasting treatments are few, and may not occur, there are still possible. Discuss this treatment and its possible side effects with your doctor before deciding whether or not it will be the best treatment for you. Remember, there may be other options available that might be more highly recommended.
An alternative to laser treatment would be to treat active acne with microdermabrasion using aluminum hydroxide crystals or diamond crystals. These crystals smooth the skin and remove the top layers. This serves to remove excess debris and buildup that can be a cause of acne. This type of treatment is not necessary or recommended for someone with milder forms of acne as it can be hard on the skin. However, this treatment has proven to be very effective in clearing up active acne.
This type of treatment is also used to clear acne on the back and chest. This can be helpful since back and chest acne is often more difficult to treat than facial acne.
The downfall of microdermabrasion treatment is that it is operator dependent. Over pealing the skin can lead to such side effects as hypo pigmentation or scarring. So, in effect, if not done properly, the treatment you are using to clear up acne scarring could actually cause additional scarring.
Because of this, it is recommended it be done by a physician or qualified therapist who knows how to make it be effective without causing more damage to your skin.

Zeno Pro Acne Clearing Device Pink
The Zeno Pro Acne Clearing Device is a clinically proven portable, hand-held rechargeable medical device for at-home treatment of individual acne pimples.
Package contains:
- Zeno Pro Acne Clearing Device
- One replaceable 90 count Treatment Tip
- Leather carrying case with mirror

Effective Acne Clearing Device
Zeno is an acne clearing device. It is a hand-held, portable electronic medical device that is clinically proven to make pimples disappear fast. In fact, for treating acne pimples, it’s the most scientifically advanced and effective device available without a prescription. Zeno Acne Treatment is for people with mild to moderate acne. Clear up your acne. Eliminate your pimples with the Zeno.
Zeno works by applying precisely controlled low-level heat to a pimple, causing the bacteria within the pimple to self-destruct. It takes only two or three 2 1/2-minute treatments, over 12 to 24 hours to work. For many pimples, one treatment is enough. The installed Treatment Tip Cartridge contains a specific number of treatment cycles and is easily replaced once exhausted. Treatment Tip Cartridges are available where you purchased Zeno.
The proprietary Zeno technology triggers a heat shock response in microorganisms that cause skin lesions, bringing about the self-destruction of those bacteria and allowing the skin to return to a healthy, normal state. In the case of acne, the P. acnes bacterium is the root cause of 90% of all acne pimples.
Zeno is a simple electronic product designed to safely heat an acne lesion to a pre-set temperature range known to generate heat shock response. Heat shock response is a reaction bacteria have to heat whereby they transcript a number of genes and activate heat-shock proteins. These heat-shock proteins participate in the bacteria’s death by causing the bacteria to self-destruct.
Zeno Acne Treatment
Pimples occur when excess skin oil and flaking skin plug the opening of a hair follicle and create the ideal environment for acne bacteria to grow. Precisely controlled heat applied for a specific period of time causes the bacteria to self-destruct. When the bacteria die, the pimple goes away.
Zeno applies a precisely controlled heat dose directly to the pimple through a metal pad. Learn about thermal treatment of acne pimples. Lean about acne and pimples.
Safe, painless, and effective acne treatment
Zeno Acne Treatment can clear up a pimple in just hours. Two to three 2½-minute treatments spread over 24 hours are sufficient for most pimples. Often, only one treatment is needed. Most other medications can take days or even weeks to work.
Patients included in our clinical trials experienced little reaction to the low-level heat. Other than some temporary skin redness following a treatment cycle, no other adverse side effects were reported.

Laser treatment is one of the easiest treatments with little pain and downtime to reduce wrinkles, acne scars, sun spots, brown spots. Also it reduce the risk of cancer, tighten skin and improve kin tone.
My friend told me about Zeno Pro Acne Clearing Device Pink after seeing it in her derm dr.’s office, so I checked it out. I actually called the company before I bought it and asked A LOT of questions. They were extremely helpful and told me that their device has a temperature of around 118 degrees f (this is what kills most zits), which is what I found out to be confirmed in a couple internet searches as well. I also did a couple searches (which I highly urge others to do as well) on google asking what temperature skin burned (try wiki). I learned that zeno’s heat is not hot enough to hurt my skin, so I bought one knowing I could return it within a month (free) if it didn’t work out for me. I basically had nothing to lose since nothing else was working any better than popping and time (yucky!). Well, I was flabbergasted after using this product! This device works extremely well. It is not hot or painful to the touch AT ALL! It did not hurt my fair skin in the least bit (I would not use it with any other product that makes your skin sensitive to heat though, such as an antibiotic, but it says this in the directions). It did leave some redness, but it totally faded within about 30 minutes (which it also says is normal, but I just put powder over it if I’m on the go). But the most incredible thing was that the pimple went bye-bye by the next day. And when I say bye-bye, I mean completely GONE. I zapped it 2 times total too. The final verdict is that this device really works, incredibly well I might add.
Zeno Pro Acne Clearing Device Pink is great for people with moderate acne. I’ve been using it for about 2 weeks. I usually have about 2-4 large pimples on my face and Zeno works wonders on them - they decrease immediately in size. But the diminished pimple lingers for a few days before disappearing completely, even with repeated use. I hate how it takes nearly 3 minutes per pimple but I guess it’s worth it. Overall, Zeno’s a great product if you have the money (the number of uses on the treatment tip decrease rapidly) and the time, but the results won’t be the clearest skin on the planet.
I bought Zeno Pro Acne Clearing Device Pink on a whim, but I’m happy I did. It really does work, but it takes more treatments for me and I notice that sometimes the pimple will come back if you don’t treat it enough. Overall though I’m very pleased and would buy it again baised on my results.
I’ve been battle with acne all my life and this Zeno Pro Acne Clearing Device Pink is amazing . It’s clear my acne in a day. Now, I don’t have to pick at it.
I have been using Zeno Pro Acne Clearing Device Pink for about two weeks and I really like it. It works great if you use it at the very first sign of a zit. It is usually flat the next day and the dark mark goes away shortly after that. It is a lot of money but for me it has been worth it.
