ACNE THERAPY
NeoClear by Aerolase offers clients of all ages and skin types a new safe, effective, and tolerable treatment for acne using advanced 650-microsecond technology. NeoClear is a powerful acne treatment that eliminates the major factors causing acne including excess sebum production, inflammation, and the p. acnes bacteria. Typically, many different treatments, medications, or skin care options are required to address these factors, but NeoClear can achieve this with a single device. The unique settings of the 650-microsecond device allow energy to penetrate deeply into the skin within a highly safe and tolerable pulse to reduce sebum production, suppress inflammation, and destroy the p. acnes bacteria to help clear current acne breakouts and stop them in the future. Also, the deep heating energy helps build collagen, which can reduce the appearance of acne scars and leave skin looking radiant.
NeoClear is a special treatment as there are no side effects, is very comfortable for clients, and the results can be seen quickly – in as little as a single treatment. NeoClear is an excellent option for clients that do not want to take prescription medications or are unable to. Plus, with increasing prescription costs, NeoClear is an excellent, cost-effective solution for clients’ acne problems.
NeoClear treatments typically take between 10-30 minutes depending on the severity of the acne and the size of the area affected (face, neck, chest, torso). NeoClear is highly safe, effective, and tolerable for all skin types, all ages, and all types of acne. Treatment may be performed without any skin cooling, or anesthetic, and even without the need to touch the skin.

FAQ
WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO SEE AN IMPROVEMENT IN MY CONDITION?
The number of treatments as well as results vary from client to client. Commonly, improvement may be seen anywhere from 4–8 weeks if treatments are performed every 1 to 2 weeks depending on the severity of the condition and your skin’s reaction to the therapy. Some client's condition may worsen before it gets better.
IS IT PERMANENT, OR WILL MY ACNE COME BACK?
There is no cure for acne, only maintenance, so further treatment may be required in the future. This will vary client to client and some will have greater results than others depending on the severity of their acne, their skin type, and their daily maintenance.
CAN IT BE USED ON ACNE SCARS?
The Neo Elite will remove pigment and redness from acne scars. It will also improve the skin’s texture slightly due to the absorption of water which will rebuild collagen and elastin.
IS IT PAINFUL?
No, there is just a mild, very tolerable sensation of heat. This is one of the key technical breakthroughs of Aerolase technology. The Neo Elite has set a new standard for virtually pain-free treatment, even
on darker skin types, thanks to MicroPulse-1064 technology.
CAN IT BE USED ON DARK SKIN?
Actually, the Neo Elite is the safest laser in the industry for darker skin types or tanned skin. This is because of MicroPulse-1064 technology, which essentially eliminates treatment pain while minimizing the chances of hyper- and/ or hypo-pigmentation.
