Book your TreatmentWhy AviClear
AviClear is the first and only FDA-cleared laser treatment for the long-term clearance of all severities of acne — and the number one treatment of its kind in North America.
Using breakthrough 1726 nm laser technology, AviClear precisely targets and suppresses the sebaceous glands, reducing excess sebum production, one of the primary causes of acne. Unlike topical or oral treatments, AviClear offers a clinically proven, non-invasive solution without harsh side effects. It’s safe for all skin types and tones and delivers a transformative experience that sets a new standard in acne care and confidence.
AviClear may be for you, if:
- You’ve struggled with ineffective acne treatments
- You want to avoid long-term use of prescription medications
- You’re looking for a long-lasting, non-hormonal, non-antibiotic acne solution
- You’re seeking a treatment suitable for all skin tones
How does AviClear work?
AviClear utilises a specialised laser wavelength of 1726nm to safely and precisely target the sebaceous glands that produce oil in the skin and downregulate them. By reducing sebum production, AviClear disrupts the acne cycle at its source. The device also features AviCool™ sapphire skin cooling for a safe and comfortable treatment experience, eliminating the need for numbing cream.
The treatment itself involves passing a specialised laser device across the skin to target acne-prone areas. The laser delivers controlled pulses of energy at a precise 1726 nm wavelength, which selectively targets the sebaceous glands to reduce oil production. The results usually become noticeable within a few weeks of their final treatment and continue for up to 12 months post-treatment.

Your Questions Answered
What happens during treatment?
Each AviClear session takes around 30 minutes. Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed, and then the laser will be passed over the acne-prone areas. No anaesthetic is needed, and most patients find the treatment comfortable thanks to integrated cooling technology.
How many treatments will I need?
A full course consists of three treatments, spaced about a month apart. For most patients, this is sufficient for long-term improvement, although maintenance treatments can be discussed if needed.
What areas can be treated?
AviClear is indicated for use on the face, but all areas affected by acne can be treated, including the chest and back.
When will I see results?
Everyone’s skin is different, but most people start to notice a real improvement a few weeks after their final AviClear session. In clinical studies, 80% of people saw at least half of their acne clear up within three months. Even better, results continued to improve over time — with 87% seeing clearer skin at six months, and 92% seeing results by twelve months. Your skin will keep getting better long after your treatments are complete.**

Does the treatment hurt?
Most patients describe a slight snapping sensation or warmth during the treatment, but it is very tolerable. AviClear’s AviCool™ system cools the skin before, during, and after each laser pulse, helping to ensure comfort.
What is the down time?
You can return to your daily routine immediately after treatment. Some patients may experience mild redness or temporary acne flare-ups – this is normal and should resolve within a few days.
Will I need to stop using other acne treatments?
AviClear can be used alongside a personalised skincare routine. Dr Ophelia will advise whether any topicals or oral medications should be paused before or during treatment.
Am I a good candidate for AviClear?
AviClear is ideal for teens and adults experiencing mild to severe acne that hasn’t responded to traditional treatments. It’s a good option for those who wish to avoid long-term use of oral medication or birth control for acne management. Whether you’ve just begun your skincare journey or are seeking a long-term solution after years of acne treatments, AviClear may be right for you.
