If you’ve been battling persistent acne and are tired of medications, harsh topicals, or treatments that only offer short-term relief, you’re not alone. Millions of people struggle to find a lasting solution. Enter Cutera AviClear: the first and only FDA-cleared energy-based device for treating mild, moderate, and severe acne. At Gold Skin Care Center, we’re proud to offer this cutting-edge treatment that targets acne at its source.
What Is AviClear and How Does It Work?
Unlike traditional acne treatments that focus on surface symptoms or rely on medication, AviClear uses advanced laser technology to target the root cause: overactive sebaceous glands. These glands produce the oil (sebum) that clogs pores and leads to breakouts. By safely and selectively targeting these glands, AviClear reduces oil production — without damaging the skin or relying on pharmaceuticals.
Over a series of treatments, this reduction in oil production leads to:
- Fewer and less severe breakouts
- Reduced inflammation
- A smoother, clearer complexion
- Long-term acne control without daily maintenance
AviClear is ideal for patients looking for a non-drug, long-lasting solution to acne. It’s a game-changer for teens and adults alike who want clearer skin without the side effects of oral medications like antibiotics or isotretinoin.
Why Gold Skin Care Center Recommends AviClear
Led by Dr. Michael H. Gold, a pioneer in laser and cosmetic dermatology, Gold Skin Care Center stays at the forefront of acne treatment innovations. We were among the first in the region to introduce AviClear because we believe in offering our patients safe, effective, and scientifically-backed solutions for healthy skin.
What Makes AviClear a Standout Option?
- FDA-Cleared for All Acne Severities: From hormonal breakouts to cystic acne, AviClear is approved for mild, moderate, and severe cases.
- Safe for All Skin Types and Tones: This treatment is effective and safe across the full spectrum of skin colors.
- Minimal Downtime: Most patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment.
- Drug-Free: No prescriptions, no hormonal interference, and no risk of drug-related side effects.
- Lasting Results: Clinical studies show continued acne improvement even six months after the last treatment session.
What to Expect During an AviClear Session
Each AviClear session at Gold Skin Care Center is straightforward and comfortable. Here’s a quick look at what to expect:
- Consultation: You’ll meet with our expert dermatology team to determine if AviClear is right for your skin type and acne severity.
- Preparation: The skin is gently cleansed. No numbing is typically required, but we always prioritize your comfort.
- Treatment: The laser is applied in short pulses. Most patients describe the sensation as a light snapping or warming feeling.
- Post-Treatment: There may be slight redness or warmth, which usually subsides within a few hours.
A complete treatment plan typically involves three sessions spaced about one month apart, though we tailor every plan based on individual skin needs.
Long-Term Benefits Without the Risk
One of the most compelling reasons to choose AviClear is its long-lasting results. Because the laser targets the sebaceous glands directly, patients often experience months or even years of acne improvement following their treatment series.
Unlike medications that must be taken daily or topicals that can irritate the skin, AviClear offers:
- Sustainable results
- Low maintenance
- No systemic side effects
