The Smoothbeam laser procedure is a non-invasive treatment used for various dermatological conditions, particularly targeting acne and acne scars. It utilizes a specially designed diode laser system to address these specific skin concerns. The Smoothbeam laser works by emitting a wavelength of light that is selectively absorbed by the water in the skin’s deeper layers. This laser energy heats up the targeted areas, stimulating collagen production and remodeling, while also shrinking the sebaceous glands responsible for excess oil production.
Smoothbeam is commonly used to treat acne and reduce the appearance of active acne lesions. The laser’s energy targets the sebaceous glands, reducing their size and activity, which can help control oil production and minimize the formation of new acne breakouts.
Smoothbeam can also improve the appearance of acne scars. The laser energy penetrates the skin’s deeper layers, stimulating collagen production and remodeling. This process can help smoothen the texture of acne scars, making them less noticeable over time.
Smoothbeam is a non-ablative laser, meaning it does not remove the top layer of the skin. This makes the procedure non-invasive, with minimal downtime. Most patients can resume their regular activities immediately after treatment.
To achieve optimal results, multiple treatment sessions are usually recommended. The exact number of sessions will depend on the severity of the condition being treated and individual response to the treatment. Typically, treatments are spaced several weeks apart.
Smoothbeam effectively treats acne by targeting sebaceous glands, reducing their size and activity, which helps control oil production and minimize breakouts.

As a non-ablative laser treatment, Smoothbeam does not remove the top layer of skin, resulting in minimal downtime and allowing patients to resume regular activities immediately after treatment.
Smoothbeam includes a dynamic cooling device that cools the skin before and after each laser pulse, minimizing discomfort and protecting the skin's outer layer.
