APL Treatment
APL is a laser treatment which is a combination of photo dynamic therapy and vascular laser. Aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is applied to the skin and is allowed to incubate for 3 hours, after this incubation period laser (limelight) is applied to the area which actives the ALA which allowing damaged cells to selectively absorb the ALA and be vulnerable to the treatment.
APL can prevent the development of skin cancers and sun spots, while simultaneously improve the appearance and texture of your skin – reducing redness, roughness, pigmentation and texture. It allows large areas such as the face, hands, scalp and forearms to be rapidly treated with both medical and cosmetic benefits.
