Struggling with persistent acne can be frustrating, especially when topical products and at-home routines aren’t providing the improvement you want. Breakouts can develop for several reasons, including excess oil, clogged pores, bacteria, inflammation, and hormonal factors, which is why acne treatment isn’t always one-size-fits-all.
TheraClear™ Acne Therapy provides a non-invasive approach that combines vacuum-assisted pore cleansing with broadband light technology. At The Kaga Institute, our team uses TheraClear™ to address active breakouts, congestion, and inflammation while creating a treatment plan based on your skin and type of acne.
What is TheraClear™?
TheraClear™ combines two technologies in a single acne treatment. Gentle vacuum suction helps extract excess oil, dead skin cells, and debris from clogged pores, while broadband light targets acne-causing bacteria and helps reduce inflammation.
By addressing several factors involved in breakouts at once, TheraClear™ can be an option for patients who want to improve active acne without relying exclusively on topical or oral treatments.
What types of acne can TheraClear™ treat?
TheraClear™ can be used for several common forms of acne, including:
- Inflammatory acne
- Blackheads and whiteheads
- Pustular acne
- Congested pores
- Certain mild to moderate breakouts
Because acne can have different underlying causes, our team will evaluate your skin before recommending treatment. Patients with more complex or severe acne may benefit from TheraClear™ as part of a broader treatment plan.
How does TheraClear™ work?
The treatment begins with controlled vacuum suction that draws impurities, excess sebum, and debris from the pores. Broadband light is then delivered to the treatment area to target acne-causing bacteria and calm inflammation.
This combination allows us to address both clogged pores and inflammatory breakouts during the same treatment.
What can I expect during treatment?
TheraClear™ treatments are relatively quick, typically taking approximately 15 to 30 minutes depending on the treatment area. You may feel gentle suction along with warmth or mild tingling as the device moves across the skin.
There is typically little to no downtime, although temporary redness or sensitivity may occur following treatment.
When will I see results?
Improvement is gradual and varies according to your acne type and severity. Some patients begin noticing fewer active breakouts and less inflammation as they progress through their treatment series.
Because acne is an ongoing condition for many people, the number and frequency of treatments will be personalized. Our team may also recommend professional skincare or other acne treatments to help maintain your results.
Is TheraClear™ right for me?
TheraClear™ may be appropriate for teens and adults with mild to moderate acne, particularly patients dealing with clogged pores, blackheads, whiteheads, or inflammatory breakouts.
It may also be considered when conventional skincare hasn’t provided sufficient improvement or when you prefer a non-invasive, in-office treatment. During your consultation, our team will evaluate your acne, skin type, current skincare routine, and previous treatments before recommending the best approach.
Can TheraClear™ treat acne scars?
TheraClear™ is primarily designed to treat active acne rather than established acne scars. Once active breakouts are better controlled, our team can evaluate lingering scars, redness, pigmentation, or uneven texture and recommend treatments specifically designed for those concerns.
