AviClear
Treating acne efficiently, safely and permanently without the use of medication is now possible thanks to AviClear, the first and only laser approved by the FDA and Health Canada for the treatment of mild to severe acne.
AviClear treats acne at the source by targeting the sebaceous glands using a precise wavelength. The laser decreases the production of sebum, preventing the clogging of pores and the formation of blackheads and pimples. Three sessions of approximately 30 minutes are generally recommended to achieve optimal results. The benefits are seen progressively over the 6 to 12 months following treatment and the results are long lasting.
Studies have reported no serious reactions and very few side effects, making AviClear an attractive alternative to systemic or topical acne treatments as well as oral contraceptives that are commonly prescribed to control acne in both adolescents and adults.

Follow-Up & Maintenance
Three sessions, four weeks apart, are generally recommended. Results are long-lasting and additional treatments are rarely needed. In clinical studies, 80% of participants saw their acne decrease at least by half. 87% of participants were satisfied or very satisfied with the results one month after the last treatment.
Contraindications
AviClear is contraindicated in pregnant women or in patients with skin cancer. Special precautions should also be taken in nursing mothers. Patients taking prescription medications such as Accutane may need to defer treatment. Each case is evaluated individually by a Dermapure physician.
