Advanced Laser Acne Treatments at Pulse Light Clinic

Acne is a common yet complex skin condition that affects both teenagers and adults. While many over-the-counter products promise to clear or control acne, results are often temporary and breakouts frequently return. Without professional treatment, acne can lead to inflammation, pigmentation, scarring, and long-term skin damage.

At Pulse Light Clinic in London, we provide advanced, medical-grade acne treatments designed to target the underlying causes of acne and support long-term skin health.

At Pulse Light Clinic, we can help you:

  • Control active acne and cystic acne breakouts
  • Avoid skin damage and reduce the risk of acne scars
  • Remove blackheads and whiteheads
  • Treat post-inflammatory pigmentation and redness

AviClear Laser Acne Treatment

AviClear is the first and only FDA-cleared laser treatment designed specifically to treat acne at its source by targeting the sebaceous glands responsible for excess oil production.

AviClear works by selectively heating the sebaceous glands, reducing sebum output over time without damaging surrounding skin. This makes it an effective solution for moderate to severe acne, including persistent and hormonal acne, without the need for oral medication.

A course of AviClear treatments is recommended to achieve long-lasting acne clearance, with results continuing to improve over several months.

LaseMD Acne Treatment

Our acne treatment approach may also include LaseMD, an advanced non-ablative laser system designed to improve acne, congestion, and overall skin quality.

LaseMD works by creating microscopic channels in the skin, forming temporary micro-reservoirs beneath the surface. These channels allow targeted active ingredients to penetrate deeply into the skin, where they reduce acne-causing bacteria, control inflammation, and improve skin texture.

Following each LaseMD session, we apply RS Serum Ampoules formulated with nanoparticles. These are absorbed into the micro-reservoirs, maximising deep skin penetration and enhancing treatment results.

LaseMD is particularly effective for congested skin, inflammatory acne, and supporting cystic acne treatment plans.

Treating Acne Pigmentation and Redness

As active acne improves, some patients may experience post-acne concerns such as pigmentation or redness. At Pulse Light Clinic, we address these using advanced laser and light-based technologies.

Persistent redness or vascular scarring can be treated with IPL (Intense Pulsed Light). IPL targets dilated blood vessels, reduces redness, eliminates acne-causing bacteria, and stimulates collagen and elastin to support skin healing.

LED Phototherapy for Acne Maintenance

To support healing and maintain acne-free skin, we offer Dermalux LED Phototherapy, a non-invasive treatment using clinically proven blue, red, and near-infrared wavelengths.

LED Phototherapy helps to kill acne-causing bacteria, reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and stimulate collagen and elastin production. It can be used as a standalone treatment for mild acne or alongside laser treatments for enhanced results.

Acne Treatment FAQs

What causes acne?

Acne develops when hair follicles become blocked with excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. Hormonal changes, genetics, stress, diet, and certain skincare products can all contribute to acne breakouts.

What types of acne do you treat?

At Pulse Light Clinic, we treat mild, moderate, and severe acne, including inflammatory acne, cystic acne, hormonal acne, blackheads, whiteheads, and persistent adult acne.

What is AviClear and how does it treat acne?

AviClear is an FDA-cleared laser treatment designed specifically to treat acne at its source by targeting the sebaceous glands responsible for excess oil production. By reducing sebum output, AviClear helps prevent future breakouts without the need for oral medication.

How does LaseMD help with acne?

LaseMD is a non-ablative laser that creates microscopic channels in the skin to enhance the penetration of targeted active ingredients. It helps reduce acne-causing bacteria, control inflammation, improve congestion, and support overall skin health.

What treatments are available for acne scars and pigmentation?

Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and acne marks can be treated using AviClear laser technology, which safely breaks down pigment and helps restore a clearer, more even skin tone.

How is acne redness treated?

Persistent redness or vascular scarring following acne can be treated with IPL (Intense Pulsed Light). IPL targets visible blood vessels, reduces redness, kills acne-causing bacteria, and stimulates collagen and elastin to support skin healing.

What is LED Phototherapy and how does it help acne?

Dermalux LED Phototherapy uses clinically proven blue, red, and near-infrared wavelengths to kill acne-causing bacteria, reduce inflammation, and accelerate skin healing. It is ideal for acne maintenance and post-treatment recovery.

Will acne treatments damage my skin?

All acne treatments at Pulse Light Clinic are performed using medical-grade technology and tailored protocols to ensure safety. Treatments are designed to protect the skin barrier while addressing acne concerns.

Is there any downtime after acne treatments?

Most acne treatments involve minimal to no downtime. Some patients may experience mild redness or sensitivity, which typically settles within a short period.

Do I need a consultation before starting acne treatment?

Yes, we recommend booking a free consultation. This allows our practitioners to assess your skin, determine the type and severity of acne, and create a personalised treatment plan.

What payment options are available for acne treatments?

At Pulse Light Clinic, we accept all major debit and credit cards. We also offer flexible payment options to help spread the cost of your treatment, including PayPal Pay in 3 and finance plans through Omni Capital.
