Acne appears when sebum and dead cells of the skin obstruct the pores. This leads to spots which are frequently red and swollen. A habitual form of acne is characterized by some red spots called pimples. It was proved that fats and chocolate don’t determine acne occurence.
Severe acne can be treated by antibiotics, vitamin A derivatives, or benzoyl peroxide derivatives. Severe acne in the case of adults can be a sign of a subtle endocrine disorder.
Doctors treat acne, recently, by blue light therapy, with laser or light radiation. It uses blue light, of high intensity and this method was approved by Food and Drug Administration. This therapy is efficient in the therapy of light forms of acne, to moderate one, when other types of treatment did not lead to good results.
Lasers have a large category of medical applications. Intense, narrow beams of blue laser light may cut and cauterize a lot of different tissues of the body tissues just in a fraction of a second, without any damage upon healthy tissues in the same area. Lasers have been used to repair the retina, make holes in the skull, cure lesions, cauterize blood vessels and treat acne.
A laser is a special type of light source which emits very regular waves permitting the blue light to be very tightly concentrated. Laser is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.
The color of incandescent sources is connected to their temperature, with hotter sources containing more blue in their spectra.
Acne are impurities, especially blackheads and a number of impurities which can’t be detected by other means, can then be discovered by detecting the particular kinds of radioactivity which are related to radioisotopes of these impurities. In medical therapy, are used specific devices such as blue light sources.
Blue light was chosen probably because it is a pacifying color, actually the most pacifying one and a pacient who goes for a blue light therapy in order to treat acne, may have positive thinking upon this color and the probability to get good effects more quickly is higher.
