ACNE VULGARISGet a clearer complexion – faster Most of us experience acne to some extent during our lives. For many people it is a short-term annoyance, but others suffer for several years. Medication can help reduce acne, but Ellipse treatment has been clinically proven to accelerate the healing process for acne. If you are unsure how severe your acne is, you should seek appropriate professional advice. | ||||
How Ellipse treatment works Ellipse uses short bursts of safe, visible light emitted from a flash-lamp to treat the affected area. The Ellipse operator guides the visible light from the flash-lamp to the skin. The Ellipse flash-lamp emits light that is carefully filtered before it reaches the skin; this ensures that only light with the correct wavelengths is allowed to reach your skin. The light that is allowed through is absorbed by haemoglobin, which is the red pigment in blood. The heat from the flash-lamp heats up the haemoglobin in the fine blood vessels near the skin surface. This causes a minor injury to the sebaceous glands and slows down the overproduction of oil that leads to acne. |
