Laser Over Pills: AviClear Acne Stories

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts describe AviClear laser treatment for acne, mostly from adults who had spent years on creams, antibiotics or other tablets, who wanted to avoid isotretinoin, or whose acne returned after it. The writers include an apprentice electrician who paid three thousand dollars, a nurse with mask acne from twelve-hour shifts, a bus driver with a beard, a television reporter, a firefighter, a commercial pilot, a florist, two cooks and a trans man on testosterone, aged nineteen to fifty-eight, from Manila and Lagos to Vienna and Honolulu. They describe numbing cream, skin that got worse before it got better, waiting until month six to believe it, strict sunscreen, travelling to a city that had the machine, and finishing a course in another country. Money runs through the book: touch-up sessions missing from the quote, a second full round, a consultation that felt like a sale, a credit card bill and a price partly hidden from a husband. People with deeper skin, eczema and PCOS describe their particular questions. Results are mixed and the book says so: one woman saw no change after three sessions, another is still undecided, one man judged his skin about half as bad, scars stayed when spots left, the back and chest were not treated, and dark patches followed a skipped sunscreen routine.

Who it's for

For adults weighing AviClear after years of creams and tablets who want to hear the full range of results, costs and practicalities from people who have already sat in the chair.
