At Cupid Lips® in West Hollywood, CA, we help clients achieve clearer, more radiant skin through advanced treatment options like Photodynamic Laser Therapy (PDT). This two-step, science-backed skin therapy can treat a variety of skin conditions—including acne, sun damage, rosacea, and more—while also improving tone and texture.

Photodynamic Laser Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that combines a light-sensitive agent with targeted laser energy to destroy abnormal or damaged skin cells. It’s an excellent choice for anyone seeking real skin improvements with minimal downtime.

Studies have shown that PDT can significantly reduce acne lesions and sun-damaged skin while also improving the appearance of fine lines and rough texture. In fact, PDT is FDA-approved for treating actinic keratosis, a precancerous skin condition caused by sun exposure.

How PDT Works to Improve Skin

The PDT treatment consists of two main phases:

• Application of the Photosensitizing Agent: A topical solution is applied to the skin and absorbed by abnormal or damaged cells.
• Laser Light Activation: After allowing the agent to absorb, we use a specialized laser to activate the solution. This interaction generates reactive oxygen species that selectively destroy the problematic cells without damaging the surrounding tissue.

This targeted approach allows for deep rejuvenation while maintaining skin integrity.

What Conditions Does PDT Treat?

Photodynamic Laser Therapy is used to address multiple dermatological concerns, including:

• Acne Breakouts: Kills acne-causing bacteria and reduces oil gland activity.
• Age Spots and Photoaging: Fades sunspots and smooths rough, uneven skin caused by long-term sun exposure.
• Actinic Keratosis: Treats sun-induced precancerous lesions, reducing the risk of skin cancer.
• Rosacea: Minimizes redness and the appearance of broken capillaries.
• Scarring and Texture Issues: Softens the appearance of old acne scars and improves overall skin smoothness.
• Sebaceous Hyperplasia: Helps shrink overactive oil glands for better pore visibility and skin balance.
