In order to understand how AviClear works, it’s important to understand how acne and breakouts form. Acne is a common skin health problem that can affect women and men in their teens as well as adulthood. There are many things that can worsen acne such as stress, diet and the environment, but sebaceous gland malfunction is the primary cause of acne. Acne forms when sebum, an oily and waxy substance found in the skin, combines with dead skin and clogs pores and hair follicles. Clogged pores lead to the whiteheads, blackheads, papules, pustules, nodules and cysts. 

AviClear uses laser technology at a specific wavelength, 1726 nm, to target sebaceous glands while other anatomies remain protected. The light from the laser suppresses sebaceous glands resulting in decreased sebum production and eliminating acne at the source without the need for prescription oral or topical medications.
