AviClear Montreal
AviClear is a laser treatment for acne offered at our Dermapure clinics in Montreal that targets the sebaceous glands, the glands in the skin that produce oil. By directing laser energy toward these oil glands, the treatment addresses one of the underlying contributors to acne.
AviClear is most often considered by patients who would like to address acne through a laser-based approach that works directly on the skin’s oil glands. The treatment is delivered over a series of sessions, and your specialist will determine the most appropriate plan for your skin and concerns. Each session is tailored to your skin and the goals you discuss together.
Because every patient’s skin, concerns and medical history are different, AviClear at our Dermapure clinics in Montreal always begins with a personalized consultation. Together with your specialist, you will assess whether AviClear is the most appropriate option for your skin and discuss what a realistic treatment plan could look like, the expected results and the possible side effects.
