Photodynamic Therapy
Photodynamic Therapy is a novel method used to treat many skin conditions by sensitizing the skin to light, and then exposing the skin to specific light waves.
Levulan (Aminolevulinic acid 20%) is a naturally occurring photosensitizing compound which has been approved by the FDA to treat pre-cancerous skin lesions called actinic keratosis. Levulan is applied to the skin and subsequently “activated” by specific wavelengths of light. This process of activating Levulan with light is termed Photodynamic Therapy. The purpose of activating the Levulan is to improve the skin’s appearance and to reduce acne rosacea, acne vulgaris, sebaceous hyperplasia, decrease oiliness of the skin, and improve texture and smoothness by minimizing pore size. Any pre-cancerous lesions are also simultaneously treated. When this treatment is paired with Intense Pulsed Light on the same day, even more benefits can be seen, including significant fading of sun spots and spider veins.
