At Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre in Edmonton, our highly trained professionals use lasers to help clear up skin. In the video below, you can see how we do it. Our goal is to help you get clearer skin and feel good about yourself. Watch our teamwork and see how it’s done!

Why Do We Get Acne?

This is a common condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Hormonal changes during puberty often cause it, but factors such as genetics, stress, and certain medications can also influence it.

When the follicles block, bacteria multiply, causing inflammation and forming pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. It is important to note that severity can vary from mild to severe and may require different treatment approaches.

Edmonton’s Climate and Acne

Edmonton’s unique weather can also play a role in exacerbating acne for some individuals. The city often experiences cold winters and dry air, which can lead to dehydrated skin. When the skin becomes dry, it might produce more oil to compensate, potentially leading to clogged pores and breakouts.

Additionally, during rapid temperature changes, such as transitioning from cold outdoor air to heated indoor environments, the skin can become stressed, further contributing to acne flare-ups. It’s essential to consider these local climate factors when seeking acne treatments in Edmonton, as tailored care can help address these specific challenges.

Understanding Different Acne Types

Pimples present themselves in a variety of forms, each requiring a unique approach for effective treatment.

  • Whiteheads and blackheads are the result of pores closed with oil and dead skin cells.
  • Inflammatory acne includes types like papules and pustules – red, swollen bumps that may or may not be filled with pus.
  • The most severe forms are nodules and cystic acne. They are large and painful bumps with roots deep within the skin.

Understanding these different types is crucial to determining the best treatment strategy for each individual.acne trypes

Innovative Acne treatments

We specialize in innovative treatments such as light therapy, medical-grade chemical peels, drainage and extraction, and steroid injections to treat acne. Our clinic in Edmonton offers the following treatments:

  • Hydrafacial Exfoliates the skin and infuses it with antioxidants and peptides, reducing inflammation and irritation from breakouts.
  • IPL Photofacial Delivers intense pulses of light energy directly into the skin tissue to reduce inflammation and encourage cellular renewal.
  • Laser Carbon Peel cleans the skin using laser energy and activated carbon to remove excess oil and dead cells to open pores.
  • Fotona Laser is an innovative treatment that targets active pimples while inducing collagen production in the skin.
  • Fraxel laser minimizes scarring after severe breakouts and reduces redness and swelling.
  • Photodynamic therapy (PDT) involves the application of Levulan Kerastick topical medication to the treatment area, then activating it with blue light to target acne-causing bacteria.
