AFT is an advanced light-based treatment that targets a range of common skin concerns—pigmentation, redness, acne, and early signs of aging—with no downtime. It’s a comfortable, non-invasive option for patients looking to visibly improve skin tone, texture, and clarity.
Unlike traditional Intense-Pulsed Light (IPL), AFT filters out unnecessary wavelengths, allowing for a more precise and even delivery of energy to the skin. This makes it safer for more skin types and more effective at treating sun damage, brown spots, facial redness, rosacea, and visible veins, while also stimulating collagen to smooth fine lines and restore skin vitality.
For acne-prone skin, AFT uses targeted blue light to reduce inflammation by eliminating acne-causing bacteria—without the need for topical products or medication. Whether you’re managing breakouts or looking to brighten uneven tone, AFT offers a proven path to clearer, healthier-looking skin.
AFT can be safely used on various areas of the body where pigmentation, redness, or acne commonly appear. Most patients choose to treat the face, neck, décolleté, hands, chest, back, arms, or legs—depending on their specific concerns. For acne, AFT is particularly effective on the face, chest, and back, where breakouts tend to be more persistent.
Your treatment begins with a one-on-one consultation. Your provider will assess your skin condition and design a plan tailored to your concerns—whether you’re treating pigmentation, redness, or acne. A series of 8 sessions, scheduled twice a week, is typically recommended for optimal acne results.
Before beginning your first session, photographs are taken to help document your skin’s progress over time.
Your provider will guide you through the consent forms, answer any questions, and ensure you’re fully informed about the procedure.
During your session, the AFT handpiece delivers light pulses to the treatment area. Most patients describe the sensation as a gentle warmth with occasional snapping, similar to a mild elastic band. The treatment is quick, and no downtime is needed.
Pricing varies based on the treatment area and concern being addressed. A customized plan and quote will be provided during your consultation.
For lasting results, maintenance sessions may be recommended a few times per year, particularly for concerns like pigmentation and redness that can be triggered by sun exposure or hormonal fluctuations. Your provider will advise you on a long-term skincare and sun protection plan to maintain your outcomes.
AFT is not recommended for individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding; experiencing active skin infections in the treatment area or taking photosensitizing medications (must be reviewed with your provider).
