The Importance of Finding the Source of Acne

By Pure Light Laser · Updated · 1 min read · Treatments, Staff

acne treatment pure light laserRita Moldovanos has treated clients for acne for twenty three years. When she originally transitioned from esthetics into the medical field more than twenty years ago, she was blessed to work with one of the top dermatologists in a laser cosmetic medical clinic in Vancouver.

She saw the benefits of prescription treatments for skin issues, but often felt that the source of the issue was overlooked.

For instance, if someone had acne all over their face, a prescription would be written without looking to see if the client had congested pores.

Finding the source of acne will control the issue in the long term. Pharmaceuticals have changed peoples' lives at times, but it is more valuable to understand the reason behind the break outs for long-term clear skin.

Knowing the source of acne will allow you to better control it without having to rely on an oral or topical prescriptions.

Some causes of breakouts include:

  • diet
  • stress
  • poor liver function
  • lack of enzyme intake
  • lack of antioxidants on skin
  • hormones
  • heavy creams
  • liquid makeup
  • improper skincare
  • congested pores

At Pure Light Laser Skin + Body Clinic, our consults involve a questionnaire to try to isolate the source of the issue, because we want everyone to have long-term results.
