Applied in acne 6-8 treatments over four weeks, the Palomar’s acne hand piece system produces excellent results. Described as the fastest acting acne therapy available, Palomar’s acne hand piece dramatically clears over 60% of inflammatory acne lesions in just one month. With no downtime, no irritation, redness, peeling, scarring, or photosensitivity, there are virtually no side effects to the acne treatment. Unlike oral acne therapies that require continuous treatment (over at least 3 months), the Palomar’s acne phototherapy has proven to work much faster. Unlike oral acne therapies, topical drug therapies, and various UV therapies, the Palomar’s acne hand piece demonstrate no side effects. Additionally with Palomar’s acne hand piece you avoid the possibility of developing antibiotic resistance.
Palomar’s acne hand piece targets surface and ductal acnes. Acne lesions not infected with acnes bacteria do not respond to light therapy. However, only about 10% of all acne lesions are NOT caused by acnes bacteria, so it will be effective on approximately 90% of acne cases. Additionally, the Palomar’s treatment system may provide a good alternative for people who have developed resistance to antibiotic treatment.
The Palomar’s acne hand piece system offers the first medical device designed to significantly clear inflammatory acne lesions in less than four weeks - without side effects.

The goal of the Palomar’s treatment is to prevent scarring, reduce the number of painful acne legions, limit disease duration, and minimize psychological stress and embarrassment commonly associated with acne.

Acne is an inflammatory disease of the oil glands causing a build up of bacteria within the cells. There are many different types of acne that range form mild to moderate to severe. Black heads, otherwise know as comedo, are dark plugs blocking the hair follicle. A closed comedo is a white head. Palulo/pustular are more superficial and usually less than 5 mm in diameter. Nodular and Cystic acne are large painful deep solid legions usually 5 mm in diameter. These are pus-filled legions that can cause scarring. Factors that cause acne are greasy cosmetics, environmental irritations, such as pollution and high humidity, certain drugs, such as androgens, lithium, barbiturates, and hormonal changes in adolescence. Acne can cause social withdrawal due to embarrassment, poor body image, low self-esteem, frustration and anger, and preoccupation with appearance.
