Hamilton Cosmetic Dermatology now has the first clinical acne laser device in Canada.
We are very excited to have AviClear. AviClear is the first non-pharmacological acne treatment recently approved in the US and Canada that rivals or exceeds the efficacy of Accutane, but without the baggage of systemic side effects of Accutane.
Acne is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that occurs when pores get blocked with oil, bacteria or dead skin. This causes blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, or deep lumps to form. Acne typically appears on the face, back, shoulders, neck, chest and upper arms. Rather than try to hide it, our acne-fighting treatments can help you manage and minimize your blemishes. This can be especially important for teens.
Oil glands in the skin are affected by hormones, which is why acne is so common during puberty. But acne is not only a young person’s skin issue. Many adults suffer from acne into their adulthood or carry permanent scars from their youth.
Regardless of your age, our experts will recommend the right acne-fighting treatments for your complexion and skin type.
