Photodynamic Therapy - Facial Rejuvenation

Back to Patient Education
  • Introduction
  • Treatment

Introduction

Photodynamic therapy is a revolutionary process to improve the appearance of acne and poorly textured skin.  It is used to treat a variety of skin conditions including wrinkles, large pores, actinic keratosis, sun damage, pigments, and rough looking skin.  The treatment involves using a medication and a bright light to create a peel.  Photodynamic therapy helps to rejuvenate your skin to create a smoother, fresher, and healthier looking appearance.

Treatment

Photodynamic therapy is an in-office procedure.  A rejuvenating substance will be applied to your treatment area.  You can relax or run errands while the drug “incubates,” which may be from 30 minutes to several hours depending on your doctor’s recommendations.  Next, a pulsed light is applied to your skin.  The light activates the rejuvenating substance to cause a peel. 
 
You may need some healing time after your procedure, depending on the intensity of your treatment, the type and amount of sun damage your skin displays.  Your skin will peel and flake for up to about 10 days following your procedure.  Your skin may appear sunburned during this time.  Depending upon your skin condition and type, at least three treatments are recommended for optimal results.
