About the procedure
One of the most advanced solutions for treating acne is the use of laser technology, more specifically the Photon laser.
This method uses laser energy not only to reduce the appearance of acne, but also to address underlying problems such as overactive sebaceous glands responsible for excessive sebum production.
The versatility of laser acne treatment lies in its dual capability. Offered by a solution for active acne while working to reduce the visibility of acne scars.
Approach in the NYD clinic
At NYD Clinic, we are committed to offering the best treatment options to individuals experiencing acne.
Our commitment to state-of-the-art technology is reflected in our choice of laser system Fotona TwinLight. This state-of-the-art laser uses two synergistic wavelengths, Er:YAG and Nd:YAG, which are specially designed to precisely and nourish acne-prone skin.
TwinLight laser treatment provides a safe and effective treatment for acne. The unique combination of these two wavelengths allows a comprehensive approach to acne treatment.
- The Er:YAG wavelength gently exfoliates the skin, removing dead skin cells and unclogging pores, which are key contributors to acne.
- The Nd:YAG wavelength penetrates deeper and targets the sebaceous glands to reduce sebum production, which is the root cause of acne.
This dual-wavelength strategy not only treats existing acne, but also works to prevent future breakouts, ensuring long-lasting results.
Dead skin cells and excess sebum cause clogged pores. The excess sebum then leads to a build-up of P. acnes bacteria, which causes infection, inflammation and ultimately acne.
The laser light excites the porphyrins produced by P. acnes to produce singlet oxygen, which kills the P. acnes bacteria.
Deep heating with a high-powered laser heats the sebaceous glands, reducing their size and inhibiting sebum secretion.
Coagulation of blood capillaries in inflamed lesions blocks the inflammatory response and reduces pressure on surrounding tissue, thereby reducing pain and erythema.
The absorption of laser energy in the deeper layers of the skin causes collagen remodelling, which improves skin texture and reduces acne scars.
Pores are unclogged. The eyelid shrinks and sebum secretion is reduced. Inflammation and redness are alleviated. Skin becomes clearer and smoother.
Am I a suitable candidate?
If you are considering laser acne treatment, it is crucial to understand the criteria that make someone an ideal candidate for this procedure.
Meeting these criteria not only ensures the effectiveness of your treatment, but also contributes to your satisfaction. You need to take this into account to determine whether you are a suitable candidate:
- Mayors: Applicants must be over 18 years of age. This age requirement is important to ensure that the patient's skin is mature enough for the treatment to be safe and effective.
- General health: Good health is a fundamental requirement. Good health means that your body can heal effectively after treatment and that you have a lower risk of complications during and after the procedure.
- The severity of acne: The laser is most effective for individuals with mild to moderate acne. If you have this level of severity of acne, you are likely to notice greater improvements after laser treatment.
- Realistic expectations: It is essential to have realistic expectations about the results that can be achieved with Fotona laser acne treatment. Understanding what the treatment can and cannot do will help you to match your expectations with the likely results, leading to greater satisfaction with the results.
If you find that you meet these criteria, you are a good candidate for laser acne treatment. The consultation is a great opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the treatment process, the expected results and any other concerns you may have.

Frequently asked questions
Does therapy hurt?
Pain sensitivity can vary, but patients often report a mild stinging or warming sensation during the procedure. Local anaesthetics may be used to reduce discomfort.
How many visits do I need?
The number of visits required depends on the severity of your acne and the individual skin conditions. As a general guide, we recommend between 3 and 6 visits to achieve a significant improvement in acne. However, this may vary for each individual.
Our approach usually involves 3 visits, followed by ongoing assessments by our doctors to assess the progress of your skin before determining whether further visits are necessary.

Yes, this laser therapy can be combined with a consistent skincare routine and may be complemented by other therapies such as medications or chemical peels, as recommended by your dermatologist.
Is laser treatment a permanent solution for acne?
Laser acne treatment can significantly improve the condition by reducing acne breakouts, reducing inflammation and promoting clearer skin. Although it can provide long-lasting results for many individuals, it is important to remember that results can vary depending on factors such as the severity of the acne, individual skin characteristics and adherence to after-care.

Our patients' opinions
I received intravenous vitamin therapy for burnout at the NYD clinic. The staff were friendly, professional and made me feel comfortable. I highly recommend it!
Fast, efficient, quality. Thank you🌏
I took a 5-pack of acupuncture for neck pain. This package is much better value for money. I was impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of the staff, the facilities are modern and very clean. I will be happy to go for any therapy or procedure.
I recommend them, I only go to them for fillers (forehead and between the eyebrows) in Ljubljana. The premises are nicely decorated and I had my turn at the appointed time without any waiting.
