Mary O’Donnell of the Cosmetic and Hair Restoration Clinic at the Bon Secours Hospital, answers queries about the AC Dual treatment for Acne available there…
Acne is one of the most common skin conditions. AC dual is the treatment available for acne here at the CHRC. Here are some frequently asked questions regarding the AC Dual acne treatment:
How does AC Dual work?
The treatment utilises intense pulsed light technology to deliver direct bursts of blue and red light onto targeted areas of the skin. Both the blue and red light have acne fighting capabilities.
The blue light targets and eliminates the bacteria causing acne, while the longer wavelength of the red light reduces inflammation on the targeted area.
Smart pulse technology embedded in the applicator ensures precise and consistent energy delivery that is maintained throughout the course of treatment.
The real time cooling feature detects the applicator temperature to maintain safety and comfort.
How does the treatment feel on the skin?
It feels like an elastic band tipping off the skin.
Will I be able to work the next day?
Yes, there is very little downtime and the treatment is quick and comfortable.
How long does the treatment take?
The treatment usually takes around 30-40 minutes.
How many treatments will I need?
A course of 8-10 treatments are recommended and can be done twice weekly, once four days are left in between each session.
