Helping you build an aesthetic practice.

Acne Scar Reduction

Scars that are due to the non-treatment of acne over years can be reduced or minimized by treatments that "peel" layers of skin and may or may not promote a collagenesis response in the treatment area.

West Coast Laser recommends the following systems for acne scar reduction treatments:

RevLite™
HOYA Con-Bio, a leader in medical lasers designed for tattoo reduction, introduce the newest generation Q-switched Nd:YAG laser technology, the RevLite™. The Medlite C-6™ and the RevLite™ are high powered multi-purpose, multi-wavelength aesthetic devices that can treat a broad spectrum of indications on all skin type patients. The system's EO Q-switched engineering produce very rapid, short pulses of energy that will limit the tissue's exposure to thermal build up and offer safe, fast and effective treatments. The PhotoAcoustic Technology Pulse™ (PTP) allows for 60% more energy than previous generations and allow the physician to use higher fluence levels with larger spot sizes.
The RevLite™ EO Q-switched Nd:YAG laser is built on the same foundation as the popular MedLite™ series of lasers commonly referred to as the "workhorses" of aesthetic medicine for almost two decades. For more than 25 years, HOYA Con-Bio has been a global leader in medical lasers and their systems are respected worldwide.

WhisperNG™
The WhisperNG™ Erbium YAG Extended Ablation laser enables the physician to provide a unique ultra-fast, true laser peel with outstanding results and no relative downtime.  The WhisperNG™ laser combines a proprietary fluence level with an extra long pulse width to achieve “Extended Ablation” of the skin.  The desquamation process is spread out over 3 to 5 days and occurs simultaneously with the reepithelialization process.  The result is a noticeable improvement in skin texture without unduly exposing the underlying dermis.

SmartXide DOT™
DOT Therapy is the newest, state-of-the-art procedure for laser skin resurfacing.  Using the SmartXide DOT™ CO2 laser system will allow the treating physician to take the technology to a new level with standard and fractional delivery methods to customize each treatment area on every patient.  DOT Therapy can be used for fractional laser resurfacing on the face as well as non-facial areas like the neck, decollete and hands to effectively treat sun damage, dyschromia (pigmentation), rhytids (wrinkles), skin laxity and acne scarring.

Unlike other skin resurfacing CO2 lasers, the SmartXide DOT™ laser system is unique because the treating physician is able to selectively control the spacing or "pitch" of the DOTs.  This control allows you to "fractionate" the laser energy over a customized pattern of micron-sized DOTs to maximize or limit the thermal density on the treatment tissue.  The untreated tissue remaining after DOT Therapy promotes faster healing times that can be customized with each patient depending on their schedule.

NaturaLaseLP™
The NaturaLaseLP™ is one of the most versatile lasers on the market today that is an excellent treatment option for a variety of applications. The long pulse Nd:YAG 1064 nm is the commonly preferred modality for laser hair reduction treatments on darker skin type patients and vascular leisons, such as leg veins.  This technology allows for non-ablative photorejuvenation, skin tightening, pore reduction and wrinkle reduction treatments.

NaturaLaseQS™
The NaturaLaseQS™ is the only Q-switched Nd:YAG capable of delivering 2 Joules of pulse energy that allows the physician to use a higher fluence with larger spot sizes.  By combining that power with an extremely flat beam profile, physicians are able to deliver energy deeper into the skin with much less damage to superficial tissue layers.  True nanosecond pulse widths make this technology suitable for all skin type patients.  The NaturaLaseQS™ is an incredibly versatile, reliable and well designed laser that delivers multiple treatment options in one system.
