About Active Acne and Acne Scar Treatment

What is Dr. Siddiq’s active acne or acne scar treatment?
Dr. Siddiq uses the latest in laser treatment for acne and acne scars.  This advanced infrared laser treatment called ThermaScan sets new standards in the treatment of acne and several other skin conditions. The acne and atrophic acne scars on your body will soften as a result. You will notice an immediate improvement in your skin texture and smoothness.

The laser energy delivered by the ThermaScan gently heats up the upper layers of your skin/dermis. The heat absorbed by the targeted areas will reach the sebaceous glands in your skin, thus reducing the number of active acne lesions. ThermaScan acne therapy is effective on all skin types and tones.

How many treatments will I need?
During consultation, Dr. Siddiq will discuss your goals and will determine the best program to achieve your desired results.

How long will it take to recover?
One of the most outstanding features of this treatment is that there is virtually no downtime associated with the procedure. After a session, the area treated may appear red for up to an hour. No wound is created, therefore, there is no healing time required.

What should I expect after the treatment?
Typically you will experience some redness that will resolve within a few hours. Since results vary depending on patient condition, number of treatments and area treated, your physician will provide you with all the complete information about the post treatment effects and results.

Will it be uncomfortable?
Acne treatment is gentle and non-invasive. There should be minimal or no discomfort. You may feel a warming of the skin or a rubber band snap like sensation as the procedure is performed. However, this varies from patient to patient and depends on the depth of the treatment. A topical anesthetic cream can be used on extra-sensitive areas. However, no injections are needed.

What will happen during the procedure?
Dr. Siddiq will discuss all the options with you. Your eyes will be protected with safety shields or glasses. You may feel a warming of the skin or a rubber band snap like sensation as the laser energy is absorbed by the targeted areas. Your procedure takes between 15 and 30 minutes depending on the size of the area to be treated and the type and depth of the procedure performed.

What aftercare do I need?
It is important to follow your all post treatment instructions. You may be given some skin care products and instructions on how to use them. This will minimize your risk of inflammation or redness and ensure the shortest healing time. You will be sensitive to ultra-violet light and you must avoid direct sun exposure until fully healed. Fully cover your skin or use a good sun screen whenever you go outdoors.
