Blue Light Therapy and Oily Skin

Blue Light Therapy is a skin cosmetic procedure which helps patients begin to see a smoother and clearer complexion. In helping those with acne troubles, this light therapy can reduce the need for topical treatments, ointments and creams. For those with oily skin, Blue Light Therapy can be very beneficial.

What Oily Skin Patients Can Expect

Those with oily skin tend to have more troubles controlling the oil output in the skin. With Blue Light Therapy, the treatment will target the sebaceous glands, where excess oil is produced. The skin will be less oily as a result, allowing a patient to see fewer breakouts and less shine on the skin. While patients may see improvement in their skin immediately, the best results will be seen in several treatments. This targeted Blue Light Therapy focuses also on killing the bacteria which can cause acne too, further reducing the possibility of future breakouts.

With Blue Light Therapy, patients with oily skin can begin to see a vast improvement in their skin tone and texture. While they may still have some oily residue at times, the overall appearance of shine will be reduced, leaving a patient with clear skin that's easier to manage and keep oil free.
