Acne
There are many types of acne with the most common being acne vulgaris.

Beneath the skin surface lies hundreds of tiny sebaceous glands. Their function is to collect and excrete the oily substance called sebum. When the pathway for the sebum to escape becomes clogged a bacterium called p.acnes grows inside. In a short time inflammation occurs resulting in the formation of a pimple.

Controlling Acne
Acne problems can be socially embarrassing. Dr. Iampen and her staff can suggest several treatment options including creams and washes to help control this problem.

If your case of moderate acne is not responding to medication and other conventional measures then ask about Levulan ALA. Combined with a light source, Levulan ALA kills the p.acnes bacteria in your skin. The treatment is safe, pain free and after some weeks your acne will begin to clear.
