Have you got tired of taking regular antibiotics and applying numerous medicated tubes to get rid of the inflammatory facial acne? Well, a new research reveals that the Laser treatment can do the work easily for you with few side effects.



The Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology stated that the results were confirmed after observing the effects of laser treatment on 22 patients (having light to dark skins) on both sides of their face.



Dr Ming H. Jih, from the University of Texas School of Medicine in Houston, and colleagues report:

After three treatments, average acne lesion counts were reduced by about 75 percent and 70 percent with the low and high dose treatment, respectively. These reductions basically persisted at a 12-month follow-up examination. Side effects were minimal - typically transient redness and swelling - and the procedure-related pain was well tolerated, the investigators note.




Well, all the acne patients would welcome the laser treatment, but still I worry about its long-term side effects.
