(ALBANY/SARATOGA, NEW YORK) – The Center for Plastic Surgery & Laser Skin Care and The University Ear, Nose & Throat of Northeastern New York located on 35 Hackett Boulevard in Albany and 1 West Plaza in Saratoga is now waging war in the battle against acne and actinic keratosis. Acne is the most common disease in the world. It is also a major cause of self-esteem issues, depression and social anxiety. This could also lead to subclinical PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) and in extreme cases – suicide.
“The results have been astonishing. Teenagers coming in with lowered heads ashamed of their skin – are leaving a few weeks later with a new found sense of confidence”, said Facial Plastic Surgeon and Ear, Nose & Throat Specialist, Dr. Arthur Falk. ”This company creates light based devices, that harness the “positive” energy of light rather than the destructive element such as lasers which selectively destroy various elements of the skin. In contrast, LED lights, specifically the blue spectrum light, is great for acne because the light is selectively absorbed by targets inside bacteria that live on the skin surface and contribute to infectious acne.”
Omnilux Light Based Therapy attacks the “p. acnes bacteria”, a key bacterium responsible for skin inflammation. These bacteria produce natural chemicals that are sensitive to light at different wavelengths. Once the skin is stimulated by the light, those natural chemicals help neutralize the bacteria which clears up the inflammation. The combination of both “blue and red” lights eradicates the bacteria and the redness of the lesions to promote healthier skin. Acne is best treated with Omnilux in a 4-6 week series, twice a week. Each treatment runs an average of 20 minutes. There are no reported side effects and no pain associated with the treatments. According to clinical studies, you can expect more than 70% improvement when used with other acne protocol therapies such as prescribed medications and salicylic acid.
Omnilux light therapy treatments are available at The Center for Plastic Surgery & Laser Skin Care in Albany and Saratoga. Single treatments start at $100. The Light-based therapy is also used for other skin irritations such as rosaceous and would healing. The red spectrum has been effective in a quicker heal time for post-laser surgery and post-surgery as well as healing women with comprised tissue from undergoing radiation treatments for breast cancer. Both red and blue lights are also used to treat hair loss.
