PhotoDynamic Therapy is a procedure which treats various skin conditions. We call it a “Turbo-Charged Photorejuvenation”. By applying amino-levulinic acid to the skin then exposing it to a particular wavelength of light, abnormal skin cells are destroyed. This makes it particularly effective for treating sun-damage, pre-cancerous skin lesions and acne scarring.
PDT can be used to treat the following skin conditions:
Acne & acne scarring
Pre-Cancerous skin lesions
Sun damage
How long does the treatment take?
The treatment takes approximately 30 minutes.
Do I need to take any precautions after treatment?
You must avoid any UV exposure for 24-48 hours after treatment. This includes in overcast weather.
How will I look after the treatment?
Your skin will be mildly red, tingly and warm. Mild shedding can also occur up to 7 – 10 days.
