iPhone app for acne?

Here is a novel invention by dermatologist, Dr. Greg Pearson. He has made an iPhone app that is supposed to help fight acne! The iPhone app works by making the iPhone LED screen emit both red and blue light at a specific wavelength. Although it seems slightly unusual, there is actually a scientific basis to it all. LED phototherapy for acne is a known technique of treating this problem. It uses red and blue LED light to treat acne – and this has been emulated by Dr. Pearson’s iPhone app. Blue light can help to reduce counts of the bacteria, propionibacterium acnes, that cause acne, and red LED light can help to reduce the inflammation associated with acne.

Solutions and Treatment Tools in Focus.

Injectable Lip Enhancement

Injectable lip enhancement is the procedure of strategically injecting dermal fillers into parts of the lip and surrounding lip areas to enhance, shape, or add volume to the lips and reduce surrounding wrinkles. Our doctors are highly experienced in lip enhancement, and also, some of our doctors train other doctors Australia wide on how to inject lips.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a process that deeply exfoliates, polishes, and increases the lymphatic drainage of skin. It uses a gentle vacuum to bring your skin in contact with a diamond coated head that gently abrades the top layer of dead skin. It can be used in the treatment of sunspots, pigmentation, acne (it is particularly good for comedonal acne/blackheads), acne scarring, fine lines, pores, and dull skin. It is most commonly used on the face, but can be used on the neck, back, and hands.

Non Surgical Facial Shaping

Traditionally, facial shaping has been performed exclusively by surgical means. With the advent of new dermal fillers and anti-wrinkle injections, it is now possible to shape the face and make subtle yet significant changes without the need for surgery.
