Sound familiar?

Breakouts that keep coming back

Tried everything over the counter

Face washes, creams and home remedies — weeks of effort, and the next breakout still arrives on schedule.

Every pimple leaves a mark

The breakout settles, but the dark spot or pit it leaves behind stays for months.

Planning life around your skin

Photos, functions, interviews — you check your skin first and your confidence second.

If this sounds familiar, it isn’t a failure of effort. Most skin, hair and body concerns are medical — and they respond to the right medical treatment.
About the treatment

What it is, honestly

Fotona’s Nd:YAG acne protocol heats overactive sebaceous glands and calms inflammation — reducing active breakouts without peeling or downtime.

It pairs with medical therapy for stubborn, recurring acne.

Targets oil glandsNo downtimePairs with medication
Who it suits — Texture, scars, pigment, laxity, redness, unwanted tattoos — if light can treat it, we have the wavelength and the protocol.
Your journey

What to expect

01

Your skin is examined and a protocol chosen — depth and downtime tuned to your calendar.

02

The session

Cooling, numbing where needed, precise passes; most sessions finish within the hour.

03

Collagen does the rest

Glow shows early; remodelling results build over weeks to months across a short course.

The technology

How Fotona Acne Laser works

Fotona's acne laser protocol uses Nd:YAG energy to target active acne at its source — reducing inflammation and calming overactive sebaceous glands without medication or downtime.

The science

The science behind Acne Lase

01

Targets the oil gland

Nd:YAG light gently heats overactive sebaceous glands, reducing the oil that feeds breakouts.

02

Reduces acne bacteria

Photothermal action lowers the bacterial load that drives inflammation.

03

Calms the flare

Deep, controlled heating settles active lesions and redness faster than surface care can.

What you can expect

Results, honestly timed

01

Weeks 1–3

Fewer new breakouts; existing ones settle faster.

02

Mid-course

Visibly calmer skin; post-acne marks begin to fade.

03

After the course

Controlled skin — plus a simple maintenance plan to keep it that way.

Timelines are typical, not promised — your skin, your plan and your review schedule decide the pace. We track progress with photographs at every stage.

Why ours is different

Fotona SP Dynamis NX Line — not the usual machine

What it is

Named Best Device 2025 at the Aesthetic Awards — a top-tier dual-wavelength (Nd:YAG + Er:YAG) platform whose power and precision most clinics simply don’t have.

Why it matters to you

Higher peak power means shorter, safer, more effective sessions — and parameters are set by the doctor, not a preset menu.

Doctor-set, always

Parameters are personalised at every session — the same machine in different hands gives different results. Ours are the doctor’s.

Before & after your session

Simple prep, simple care

Before your session

Come with clean skin — no makeup, retinoids paused as advised.
Avoid heavy sun exposure for a week prior.
Tell us about new medicines, peels or treatments elsewhere.

After your session

Expect mild warmth or pinkness for a few hours — it settles on its own.
Sunscreen is non-negotiable; we’ll give you the exact routine.
Follow the simple aftercare card — and message us anytime, we actually reply.

Good to know

Questions, answered

How fast does it work?

Many see fewer new lesions within 2–3 sessions; a typical course is 4–6.

Is it safe on darker skin?

Yes — Nd:YAG bypasses surface pigment, making it one of the safest acne lasers for Indian skin.

Will the acne come back?

Acne is a tendency, not a one-time event. The course controls it, and a simple maintenance plan keeps it controlled — we’ll tell you exactly what yours needs.

Can I do this with active pimples?

Yes — the protocol is designed for active acne. Severity decides settings and spacing.

Who performs the treatment?

Every plan is set by Dr. Sarat Anandh, MD DVL, and procedures are performed under his direct supervision — never handed off to a counter.

How do I know the price?

Message us on WhatsApp and we’ll share your exact, itemised quote in a moment. Session packages are available for many treatments.

Is it safe for Indian skin?

Yes. Parameters are chosen specifically for melanin-rich skin — that’s the doctor’s job, and it matters more than any machine name.

Can I combine it with other treatments?

Often — many concerns respond best to a planned combination. We suggest one only when it genuinely adds benefit.

What if this isn’t suitable for me?

We’ll tell you honestly at the consult and point you to what will actually help — even if it’s simpler and cheaper.

Details, suitability and pricing are confirmed at consultation with Dr. Sarat Anandh, MD DVL. Individual results vary.
