What is DPC Acne Treatment?

DPC Acne Treatment is a cutting-edge, non-invasive solution that utilizes Dynamic Pulse Control technology to target and treat active acne. The treatment involves using intense pulsed light (IPL) that is safe for the skin but effective in reducing acne bacteria and inflammation.

How does DPC work to treat acne?

The DPC technology emits specific wavelengths of light that penetrate the skin to target and kill P. acnes bacteria, which is often responsible for acne breakouts. It also helps in reducing inflammation and can decrease the production of oil in the sebaceous glands, preventing future breakouts.

Is DPC Acne Treatment painful?

The sensation is often described as a quick, light snap with minimal discomfort. Our clients typically tolerate the procedure well without the need for any topical anesthetics.

How many sessions are needed for DPC Acne Treatment?

The number of sessions varies based on the severity of the acne and the response to treatment. On average, clients may need between 4-8 sessions, scheduled about 1-2 weeks apart.

What can I expect after a DPC Acne Treatment session?

Post-treatment, you may notice slight redness and swelling in the treated areas, which should subside within a few hours. Most clients are able to resume their daily activities immediately after the session.

When will I see results from DPC Acne Treatment?

Some clients may see a reduction in acne after just one treatment, but typically, results become more noticeable and improve progressively after each session.

Can DPC Acne Treatment cure my acne?

How should I prepare for DPC Acne Treatment?

Avoid sun exposure and any form of tanning for at least two weeks before your treatment. Do not use any topical acne medications that might sensitize your skin to light. It's important to discuss your current skincare routine and medications with your practitioner during the consultation.

What aftercare is required following a DPC Acne Treatment?

We recommend avoiding direct sunlight and using a broad-spectrum sunscreen. It's important to keep the skin clean and moisturized.
