Antibiotics or laser treatment for acne?

I have been a sufferer of acne for about 8 years now, and feel it's time i got it treated. A few month's back, i had a free consultation at the private clinic in Manchester. They recommended a thing called a pixel laser, to treat my acne. My main worries was the cost (拢1,200 for just the face), and the effects? Anyone had this done? On the other hand, was considering going to my doctor's, and getting some form of antibiotics to treat my acne. But with this, i'm worried of the side effects? Plus have quiet abit of acne scarring, which i'm guessing the antibiotic's would be useless to treat? Any help, would be much appreciated. Thanx : )Antibiotics or laser treatment for acne?
i wouldnt do the lazer treatment, at least not before i have tried roaccutane, the pill which can make your acne disappear for at least five years. your doctor will perscribe it and you will see the first results in two-three months. and they are amazing results!!!Antibiotics or laser treatment for acne?
I tried numerous antibiotics and creams to treat acne i only suffer from on my face, I was finally referred to a dermatologist 3 months a go and prescribed roaccutane its a very powerful drug to treat acne and as brutal side effects on the body, So far its clearing my skin up pretty well. Its best to see your doctor or dermatologist and there will decide on the best cause of action. The is no cure for acne.
There are many available cures for acne from the most affordable to the most expensive, and from the most simple to the most complicated. I think it would be best if you start with simple acne treatments. You know, start with topical medications-those you directly apply to the affected area. There are topical medications that treat the acne and minimize the appearance of acne scars. If topical medications won't work, then try oral medications-antibiotics or some vitamin... If it still won't work, then go with surgical treatments or laser treatment. Usually, treatment of acne can also depend on the cause of it-if it's hormonal, bacteria, because of too much stress (or all of the above)... Just remember that there are many options to treat your acne. Go to a good dermatologist so that he/she can detect what's causing the problem and suggest possible cures. It's also good that you ask them the side effects (if any) of those treatments as they are, after all, experts when it comes to that concern so that you can be sure you're getting correct information and that you're going to get good results.
