Revolutionary treatment is now available at office of Dr. Ben Lee

DENVER, CO - Dr. Ben Lee has introduced Isolaz™ acne treatment, a revolutionary treatment called Photopneumatics™ reported recently in U.S. New & World Report and by Reuters.

In the office of Dr. Lee, Debbie Brinkman, CNA and Clinical Coordinator, performs the Isolaz treatment. She’s also received extensive training to instruct physicians and nurses statewide on the administration of the Isolaz acne treatment.

This is a life-changing laser treatment, says Debbie Brinkman, of the laser used in the office of Dr. Lee in suburban Denver, Colorado. Approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) in less than 45 days, unheard of with the majority of medical devices and medications reviewed by this agency, the new laser treatment is the only aesthetic technology in the world that combines a vacuum with a painless laser.

The Isolaz treats pustular and comedonal acne as well as mild to moderate and acne vulgaris and clinical studies show immediate results—within 24 to 48 hours. Patients experience 30 – 50% reduction in redness, drying and flattening of blemishes after the first treatment and 85% of patients suffering from acne who were treated using Isolaz showed improvement.

Besides managing acne, Isolaz treatments result in a visible reduction in pore size improved skin texture and complexion. The vacuum, explains Dr. Lee, a double-board certified plastic surgeon who performs breast augmentation and reduction, liposuction, facelifts and forehead lifts, among other cosmetic surgeries, as well as non-invasive treatments such as fillers and laser skin treatments, from BOTOX to Restylane and Perlane, microdermabrasion and laser resurfacing of the skin.

The Isolaz vacuum helps loosen and extract blackheads and excess oil from deep within the pores, drawing these impurities to the skin’s surface while a painless laser simultaneousl helps destroy the acne-causing bacteria.

This breakthrough photopneumatic therapy suctions the skin and then beams the skin with an intense pulsed light—eliminating the deposits of oils and dirt and then beaming the skin with the IPL, a therapy that deactivates hyperactive oil glands and kills the bacteria they nourish—all within one 10-minute treatment.

Reports in U.S. News & World Report and Reuters tell of patients who have responded to Isolaz treatments. Some see Isolaz as a treatment of last resort, having spent years and thousands of dollars seeking remedies in prescription treatments and over-the-counter remedies. The best part, these patients report uniformly, is the speed with the Isolaz works, causing an immediate beneficial reaction, unlike prescription treatments that take up to months to have an impact.

Isolaz therapy typically shows improvement after just three sessions, according to Gilly Munavalli, a clinical instructor of dermatology at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, who led one of the trials for Isolaz.

Many doctors, like Dr. Lee, recommend five to seven treatments, available in a package, to clear up mid-to-severe acne.

“The science is sound,” one dermatologist is quoted as saying in the U.S. News & World Report article that ran Feb. 14, 2008. The cost of treatment starts at $100 per session and requires periodic maintenance sessions, generally once a quarter, explains Dr. Lee.

Rated as one of the 3 hottest products at the 2007 American Academy of Dermatology conference, Isolaz is the top-rated choice for acne treatment and has also been used to treat sun-damaged skin, removing brown spots and tiny broken capillaries associated with rosacea, plus it is also FDA cleared to perform permanent hair reduction.

Hair removal on the back and legs can take 20 minutes while treatments on the face take 10 minutes. Another benefit is that Isolaz does not cause sensitivity to light. The treatment can be used on all skin types and there is no downtime following treatment.

Depending on the particular patient’s needs, some will require continued use of topical treatments while undergoing the series of Isolaz treatments, says Dr. Lee. Patients who only get a breakout occasionally can also benefit from Isolaz because the vacuum action removes dirt and oil, leaving the skin radiant.
