Gold PTT

A gold photo-enhancer is applied into the pores and then activated by light, generating heat selectively in the sebaceous gland to reduce sebum production and acne bacteria. Dr. Lee Sang-joo is the author of a clinical text on Gold PTT; the method is central to the clinic's acne work.

The programme

Active acne is treated as a skin environment, not as individual spots: Gold PTT and scaling in week one, V-Beam and a regenerative booster for red marks, a custom care session, and acne Dermotoxin for pores. Extraction is included in every visit. Pigmentation and scarring that follow acne are planned for from the start.

Questions

Is this a cure?

It reduces the gland activity that drives recurrence, which is more durable than clearing what is visible. Maintenance is still planned.
