💡 How Does PDT (Photodynamic Therapy) Work?
PDT uses a naturally occurring substance called ALA, applied to the affected area (face, arms, scalp, etc.). This substance is absorbed by abnormal or damaged cells, bacteria, and oil glands.
A special LED light is then focused on the treatment area. When exposed to light, abnormal skin cells — including some pre-cancerous or early cancerous cells — are selectively destroyed. The result? Healthier, rejuvenated skin, with improvements in acne, sun damage, and skin texture ✨.
