About UsLaser Acne Treatment FAQs
Do laser acne treatments hurt?
No, many individuals only feel minor discomfort from this laser treatment. A number say it is like a "snapping" feeling at first that quickly goes away once the skin acclimates to the feeling. Our team might administer a local anesthetic to help make your procedure as painless and calm as we can.
Can acne be permanently cured?
At present, while acne may be diminished and managed, there is not a "permanent" treatment for acne. Nearly everyone will live with some degree of acne at some point their life. For some people, acne can be extreme, while for others, acne is occasionally if ever a concern. Dr. Giordano takes a multi-pronged approach to addressing acne that can be tailored to your own concerns.
Do certain foods make acne worse?
By and large, no, eating certain foods does not cause acne. A lot of research has gone into the relationship between certain food products and acne. However, the leading cause of acne is hormonal fluctuations that can induce the oil glands in the skin to produce too much sebum, which can block pores, causing acne outbreaks. Though studies are still being conducted, there are some foods believed to worsen acne symptoms, such as heavily fried foods, dairy foods, food high in saturated fats, foods containing a lot of processed sugar, and milk chocolate. The triggering object between acne and these items is that they have the ability to alter hormone numbers, which might lead to acne.
