What is Blue Light Acne Treatment and How Does it Work? 

Blue light therapy can be used very successfully to treat and prevent acne. The short wavelength of the blue light directs it close to the surface and the small handheld blue light device allows your skin specialist to precisely target acne-prone areas. 

It works by:

• Killing the bacteria in and around the sebaceous glands, which generate oil
• Making the sebaceous glands produce less oil overall 

By stopping the bacteria at its source, blue light can reduce acne and prevent future breakouts from occurring. This in turn will lead to less scarring and it will stabilize the oil glands to keep your skin looking healthier overall. 

What Can I Expect from This Treatment? 

Blue light therapy for acne is a painless and quick treatment that will result in a marked decrease in new outbreaks. Here are some quick facts you should be aware of: 

• The blue light acne treatment time is approximately 30 minutes
• Patients require 2-3 sessions per week over a 4-week period. This will allow the skin to regain its normal appearance 
• After 3 treatments, patients often notice a reduction of approximately 75% in inflammatory acne, with a marked decrease in new outbreaks 
• There are very few side effects, which might include slight irritation or redness that is resolved quickly
• There is minimal recovery time required (24 hours)
