Photodynamic Blue Light Therapy
Pre-cancerous Cells and Acne Bacteria
This therapy uses a photosensitizing agent that
is activated by intense pulse light and blue
light therapy resulting in significant
improvement in pre-cancerous conditions,
sun-damaged skin and cystic acne. It also
improves wrinkles, pore size, skin texture,
pigmentation, Rosacea and Sebaceous Hyperplasia.
This is one of the industry's most recent
procedures for facial rejuvenation, facial
peeling and the treatment of acute acne. It is
also used to treat Actinic Keratoses
(pre-cancerous scaly lesions), Sebaceous
Hyperplasia (overgrowth of fine bumps most
commonly on the forehead) and various other skin
lesions.

Blu-U® Light Therapy
The Blue-U® is a very special blue light that
can kill the p. acnes bactemit in your skin.
Treatments are simple—you sit with your face
close to the light for a short time, usually a
15 minute session, about twice per week.
Treatments generally continue for five weeks.
The process is very safe; it is not hot or
painful at all.
The Blue
Light Treatment is not a laser. It emits safe,
cool visible blue light to provide the desired
results.
