Skin clarifying treatment for acne-prone skin

Advanced Laser Therapy for Clearer, Healthier-Looking Skin

Acne-prone skin can be frustrating at any age, often causing persistent breakouts, excess oil, uneven skin texture and post-inflammatory marks. Using the medical-grade BIOTEC X-Lase Plus laser platform, this advanced laser treatment is designed to improve skin clarity, balance oil production and promote a healthier, more refined complexion.

Treatment time

20–45 minute

Downtime

Minimal

Course

4–6 treatments

Comfort

Mild warming sensation

Suitable for clients with oily, congested and acne-prone skin, every treatment is tailored to your individual skin condition following a comprehensive consultation.

How It Works

Advanced laser energy is delivered precisely into the skin, targeting the factors associated with acne-prone skin while preserving the surrounding healthy tissue. The treatment helps reduce excess sebum, supports the skin’s natural healing processes and improves overall skin quality.

Treatment may help to:

  • Improve the appearance of acne-prone skin
  • Reduce excess oil (sebum)
  • Minimise the appearance of active blemishes
  • Improve overall skin texture
  • Refine enlarged pores
  • Promote a clearer, healthier-looking complexion

For optimal results, a course of treatments is usually recommended.

Expected Results

Following a personalised treatment course, many clients notice:

  • Clearer-looking skin
  • Fewer visible breakouts
  • Reduced oiliness
  • Smoother skin texture
  • More even skin tone
  • Healthier, brighter complexion

Results develop gradually as the skin responds to treatment. Individual results vary depending on skin type, acne severity and lifestyle factors.

Treatment time

Approximately 20–45 minutes, depending on the treatment area.

Comfort

The treatment is non-invasive and generally well tolerated. Most clients experience a mild warming sensation with minimal discomfort throughout the procedure.

Downtime

Minimal. Mild redness and warmth may be present immediately after treatment and usually settle within a few hours. Most clients can return to normal daily activities the same day.

Recommended treatment course

For best results, a course of 4–6 treatments, performed every 4 – 6 weeks, is typically recommended.

Maintenance treatments may be advised depending on your skin condition and long-term skincare goals.
