We understand how frustrating it can be to experience a battle with acne. As an inflammatory skin disorder caused by many different factors, it can start to seem impossible that you will ever see any improvement. Everyone’s skin condition and causes are unique to them, and because of that, everyone responds very differently to treatment modalities.
Blue Light Therapy has been effective in some cases when treating and managing the symptoms of acne. Blue light rays help destroy the bacteria responsible for producing acne in the first place. The rays also act as an anti-inflammatory towards keratinocytes, which are the most common cells in the outer layer of the skin.
It’s extremely imperative that a board-certified dermatologist performs Blue Light Therapy on patients experiencing acne. This treatment method isn’t right for everyone and will not be given to patients with certain allergies and other conditions. Dr. Potozkin and Dr. Ellis will make sure that it is the right treatment for you before recommending it.

“Our practice philosophy is simple — to deliver the very best care we can in the very best way we can. To us, that means we make each and every patient feel welcomed from the moment that they walk in the door until they leave the office. It means that we listen to what the patient has to say and address those concerns. It means we give advice and recommend treatments based on our extensive training with leaders in the field, our wealth of personal experience, and our commitment to excellence. For our cosmetic patients, it means working with the patient to achieve results that look natural, not overdone or exaggerated. It means that we always strive to do the right thing for the patient, as we value very highly ethics, honesty, and integrity. It means we stand behind what we do and will do everything in our power to get the best results we can for the patient. It means we carefully select the highest quality staff to represent us and help us carry out these goals. Lastly and most importantly, it means that we treat the patient the way we would want ourselves to be treated, with respect and kindness. Because at the end of the day, without all of our loyal patients, we wouldn’t have a practice.”
