Medication therapy for acne in LaCLINIQUE of Switzerland
About the clinic
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) for facial acne is available at LaCLINIQUE of Switzerland in Lugano, Switzerland. The all-inclusive face programme may cost around $1,800, with no limit on sessions. PDT targets acne-causing bacteria and offers an alternative to long-term antibiotics or Roaccutane.
How PDT sessions work
A photosensitising agent is applied to the skin and activated with light. The treatment is intended to act on bacteria linked to acne. Sessions usually last 30 to 90 minutes, with one session every 10 days.
A course commonly includes 3 to 5 sessions. The specialist sets the exact number during a consultation. The programme price covers the face and does not limit the number of sessions. Treatment for other body areas requires a specialist consultation for a quote.
What to expect after treatment
Some people may feel slight stinging during a session. Redness and skin peeling can last for a few days afterward. The clinic describes PDT as a non-surgical option.
