About Acne Treatments
Acne, also referred to as pimples or zits, affects millions of men, women, and adolescents. Our facial plastic surgeons, Dr. Petroff, Dr. Scott, and their team understand how difficult acne can be to remove and the amount of stress it can cause. At Petroff Center Plastic Surgery and Medi-Spa, we offer advanced laser treatments using the Smoothbeam laser technology to help our Lake Oswego, OR patients eliminate their acne. The Smoothbeam is specially designed to target the sebaceous glands, which are responsible for the production of oil that can lead to acne. The intense heat and energy from the Smoothbeam can transform the structure of the oil-producing glands, ensuring they do not overproduce oil that eventually leads to blemishes on the surface of the skin. Patients can learn more about all of our laser treatments by contacting our office for a consultation.
Best Candidates
The best candidates for receiving the Smoothbeam laser acne treatment will have:
- Noticeable acne on the face or body
- Tried other methods without success
- A desire for a long-term result
- Overall good health and strong immune system
What to Expect
A typical treatment will take about 20 - 30 minutes with very little downtime. A consultation with one of our laser technicians will help determine the unique treatment schedule and intervals between treatments. Some mild discomfort may be produced during the treatment, but a numbing cream can be applied to reduce the pain. Patients of all ages who are struggling with acne can benefit from a series of treatments.
Acne Treatment Reviews
Appointment with Whitney - Whitney was friendly, well informed and very helpful in enabling me to understand micro needling. I have had very good experiences at Petroff Center. I am confident you provide the very best dermatology cosmetic services.
Whitney did a fantastic job helping to teach my teen how to take care of her skin. And I really appreciated her help to stress wearing sunscreen!
Whitney is awesome. My skin has been congested for so long and she helped relieve a lot of it. Go see her she is attentive, wants to see results and suggests multiple ways to achieve this in the office and out of the office.
Dr. Scott saw me last minute to finish a dermatology procedure. He is amazing. Excellently trained and brings all the other goodies to the table. The staff is professional and personable. My “new” plastics/med spa folks!
