AviClear Acne Treatment

Acne hurts your confidence and it can be difficult to clear. Until now, acne treatments have been limited to facial scrubs and creams (most of which don’t provide reliable results), prescription medications with a lot of side effects, daily antibiotics or just caking on makeup that will only make the problem worse.

We’ve got good news! If you struggle with acne and want to feel confident in your skin, there is a solution that puts all other treatments to shame. AviClear gets to the root of your blemishes and outbreaks, helping to clear and improve your complexion over time.

You don’t have to go far to achieve clear skin, either. If you’re looking for professional acne treatment, New York City has you covered. Come see Dr. Sobel, one of Manhattan’s most trusted skincare experts. Learn more about Sobel Skin and AviClear here.

What Is AviClear Acne Treatment?

Have you ever heard of acne laser treatment? AviClear is the first and only treatment of its kind that specifically targets acne where it forms. To understand how it works it is first necessary to know what causes outbreaks.

Your skin is covered in pores, at the base of which are sebaceous glands that produce oil. While sebum plays a valuable role in protecting skin, it also combines with dead skin cells to clog those pores, causing inflammation and infection (AKA: acne). Topical and oral treatments typically target acne, but not at the root of the problem: your skin’s natural oil.

AviClear does, using energy at specific (1726 nm) wavelengths to suppress the production of sebum. It does so without the use of topical or oral medications, such as steroids or antibiotics. AviClear also uses AviCoolTM contact cooling to ensure maximum patient comfort and skin safety throughout the procedure. It is the only FDA-cleared energy device for treating acne in mild to severe forms.

Dr. Howard Sobel now offers this innovative service in his Manhattan NYC office, providing safe, effective acne laser treatment to help patients feel good in their skin.

What Are the Benefits of AviClear?

AviClear has several benefits, including:

  • A chemical-free formula, which is better for your body and the environment.
  • Long-lasting results, with skin clearing continuing well after treatments conclude for many patients.
  • Only three sessions per round of treatment.
  • It’s safe for all skin types.
  • It’s so effective that most patients opt to repeat treatments over time to continue seeing results.

Who Are the Best Candidates for AviClear?

There is no question of whether AviClear is an effective or safe product. But if you’re wondering whether it is a good fit for you personally, you should consider AviClear if:

  • You have mild to severe inflammatory acne vulgaris.
  • You are an adolescent, young adult or middle-aged person.
  • You would otherwise have to take oral medications.
  • You want to avoid pharmaceuticals, chemical peels and antibiotics.

AviClear is safe for any skin type, so anyone with acne is cleared to use this treatment.

What Are the Expected Results of AviClear?

With AviClear, you can expect results fairly quickly after beginning treatment, though you will not see the full effects until you are finished with the treatments – or perhaps a month after that. AviClear involves three treatments, each of which is four to six weeks apart. Many patients saw an immediate reduction in breakouts, with acne continuing to clear over time – even after their treatments were finished.

Overall, patients saw less frequent breakouts of shorter duration and intensity than before they received the AviClear treatment. A month after treatment, nine out of 10 patients ranked themselves as satisfied or very satisfied. Three months after treatment concluded, a full three-quarters of patients opted to repeat treatment to maintain or increase its effects.

Why Is Dr. Sobel the Best Choice for AviClear Treatment?

If you’re ready to say goodbye to acne, it’s time to seek professional help. You must work with a board-certified cosmetic surgeon who specializes in such procedures and who works in an accredited facility. While AviClear is very safe, you should never trust someone who cannot show you their credentials.

Dr. Sobel’s surgical center in New York City is AAAHC-accredited, making it a good choice for anyone interested in this cosmetic procedure. He has served the Manhattan area for decades, helping people look and feel their best. AviClear is only the latest in a long line of professional procedures and treatments in which Dr. Sobel specializes.
