Reasons Why Blue Light Acne Treatment is So Useful at Getting Rid of Acne

One of the more effective ways to get rid of acne is with blue light therapy. You need to appreciate why blue light is so effective against acne.

Many adults and around 85% of adolescents have suffered acne outbreaks. Pimples and other sores result from pores that become plugged with a mass of skin oil (sebum) and dead skin cells. Once a pore becomes plugged the bacteria within in the pore start to multiple and infect adjacent tissues. This results in the redness and tenderness often linked to acne.

Generally acne prevention measures make use of several procedures. Removing surplus oils from the skin stands out as the most effective step. Bacteria on the skin in then eliminated with a mild anti-bacterial gel or cream. Dead skin cells are loosened with an exfoliant to allow them to be washed away. By doing this the possibility for clogging the pores is significantly reduced plus the likelihood of acne is minimized.

When pores become plugged they comprise blackheads or whiteheads. These are very small lesions and vary because of the location of the clog. If the plug is near the surface of the skin the plug becomes oxidized and turns dark forming a blackhead. When the plug is deeper into the pore, the surface can close in around the pore keeping it light in color which results in a whitehead.

As the bacteria start to multiple in the clogged pore the cells surrounding the pore grow irritated and become red, forming a pimple. The blemish can grow more severe after the infection spreads away from the pore. Pressure on the pimple can drive the infection into the sebaceous gland and perhaps split the cell structure permitting the infection to extend to lower layers in the skin.

You can see how essential it will be to kill the bacteria at the site of the pimple. With the bacteria eliminated, the cells should no longer be irritated and can start to mend. Serious acne can often be taken care of with systemic medications like oral anti-biotics. Most milder acne outbreaks are usually treated effectively by treatments applied locally.

Acne light treatment is one such localized treatment. While sunlight has always been know to help acne, scientists looked at precise colors in the spectrum to determine specifically the range of colors that are truly effective. One early investigation discovered that light in the blue-violet color range was particularly effective. This color range affects an organic compound in the acne bacteria. This porphyrin releases a signlet oxygen that eventually kills the bacteria.

Since acne bacteria multiply rapidly, several treatments on consecutive days tend to be required to kill all the bacteria in a blemish. With the bacteria eliminated, the irritation is eliminated and the curative process can take place to restore the normal skin condition.

The blue light may be provided light-emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, fluorescent lamps, as well as bright full spectrum light. An array of special fluorescent lights is used in the Dusa Blue Light device, often used by dermatologists, to deliver a 400 nm wavelength blue light. Frequently your dermatologist will rub on aminolevulinic acid (brand name Levulan) to affected areas prior to the blue light therapy. The Levulan is photosensitive and under blue light helps damage certain skin cells.

A single treatment in a dermatologists office may cost $200 or more. But, you can find numerous devices you can buy for use right in your own home that many individuals find effective. You can find a number of devices on the market ranging is price from around $40 to several hundred dollars.

Keep in mind that blue light acne treatment requires a few treatments to destroy the bacteria and several days for the skin to heal. So, this is not an overnight process. But, in comparison to treatments like benzoyl peroxide, many people find blue light acne treatment to be less irritating to the skin and more effective at eliminating acne.
