Aerolase Neo Elite uses advanced 650-microsecond laser technology to address several factors associated with acne, including inflammation, excess oil production, and persistent post-acne redness. Our treatment approach combines modern laser technology with individualized skin assessments.
Supporting Clearer-Looking Skin
Aerolase Neo Elite delivers controlled 1064 nm laser energy into the skin. Clinical studies suggest that this technology may help reduce inflammatory acne lesions, supporting improvements in active breakouts over a series of treatments.
Sebaceous Activity & Acne Management
Laser energy may influence processes associated with acne-related inflammation and sebaceous gland activity. Treatment may help improve the appearance of oily, breakout-prone skin, although individual responses vary.
Fitzpatrick Skin Types I–VI
The 650-microsecond pulse duration is designed to deliver laser energy while limiting excessive heat buildup in surrounding tissue. With appropriate settings and professional assessment, Aerolase can be used across a broad range of skin tones, including melanin-rich skin.
Personalized Treatment with Mitra
Treatments are performed by Mitra, a dedicated laser aesthetician with 19 years of experience in aesthetic treatments. Each session is tailored to the client’s skin condition, treatment goals, and individual response.
Laser Technology
The Aerolase Neo Elite is an advanced 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser that delivers energy through ultra-short 650-microsecond pulses. This technology allows controlled thermal energy to reach targeted structures within the skin while helping minimize excessive heating of surrounding tissue.
For acne-prone skin, Aerolase may help reduce inflammatory lesions, improve visible redness, and support a clearer, more balanced complexion. Its non-ablative approach makes it a versatile treatment option for different skin types and tones.

Clinical Applications
Aerolase Neo Elite 650µs laser therapy can be considered for a variety of inflammatory and acne-related concerns across the face, neck, chest, and back.
Deeper Breakouts & Blemish Discomfort
Aerolase may help reduce some inflammatory acne lesions. Deep, painful, nodular, or cystic acne needs medical assessment and may require other treatment to reduce the risk of scarring.
Cyclical Lower-Face Breakouts
Laser treatment may help improve inflammatory breakouts affecting the chin and jawline. However, it does not correct the underlying hormonal factors responsible for recurring acne.
Persistent Vascular Redness
Aerolase may help improve the appearance of persistent redness associated with healed acne lesions by targeting vascular components within the skin.
Uneven Skin Tone & Discolouration
Aerolase may help improve the appearance of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, including dark marks left behind after acne heals. Treatment suitability depends on skin tone, pigmentation characteristics, and individual skin response.
Larger Body Area Management
Laser treatment can be considered for inflammatory breakouts affecting larger body areas, including the back, chest, and shoulders. Treatment duration depends on the area being addressed.
Gentle In-Clinic Care
Aerolase may be considered for selected adolescents experiencing inflammatory acne. Treatment suitability depends on acne severity, skin condition, age, and clinical assessment. More severe or scarring acne may require medical treatment.
Candidate Suitability & Treatment Scope
Aerolase may be considered for selected mild to moderate inflammatory acne or post-acne redness after an assessment. It can complement established acne care; results vary and laser treatment alone may not clear acne.
Active Acne vs. Established Acne Scars: Aerolase laser treatment primarily addresses active breakouts, inflammation, and vascular redness. Established depressed acne scars, including boxcar and icepick scars, generally require different treatment approaches. Depending on scar type and skin condition, options may include RF microneedling, laser resurfacing, or other professionally recommended procedures.
Not every breakout type responds identically. Your provider will evaluate your skin barrier, current skincare or medications, and recommend an appropriate session cadence. Results vary, and multiple sessions are typically recommended.

Treatment Comparison
Acne management may involve topical medications, prescription treatments, and selected in-clinic procedures. Aerolase laser therapy offers a non-invasive option that may complement established acne treatments. The most appropriate approach depends on acne severity, skin type, medical history, and individual treatment goals.
| Clinical Dimension | Aerolase Neo Elite | Oral Isotretinoin | Topical Acne Treatments |
|---|---|---|---|
| Treatment Approach | Non-invasive laser therapy | Prescription oral retinoid | Medicated creams, gels, or cleansers |
| Primary Action | May reduce inflammatory lesions and improve acne-related redness | Reduces sebum production and addresses multiple acne pathways | Targets clogged pores, bacteria, and inflammation depending on formulation |
| Best Suited For | Selected inflammatory acne concerns and patients seeking an adjunctive treatment | Severe, scarring, or treatment-resistant acne | Mild to moderate acne and ongoing maintenance |
| Treatment Experience | In-clinic sessions with generally mild warmth | Daily oral medication under medical supervision | Regular at-home application |
| Potential Side Effects | Temporary redness, swelling, pigment changes, or other laser-related reactions | Dryness and other possible systemic adverse effects requiring monitoring | Dryness, irritation, or peeling depending on the product |
| Treatment Duration | Usually a series of sessions | Typically a prescribed course over several months | Ongoing use, with results developing over weeks |
| Skin Tone Considerations | Can be suitable for Fitzpatrick I–VI with appropriate settings | Suitable across skin tones with medical assessment | Many formulations are suitable across skin tones; irritation management is important |
| Clinical Role | Adjunctive or selected-case treatment; evidence is less established than for standard acne medications | Established treatment for appropriately selected severe acne | Common first-line treatment for many acne presentations |
Aerolase laser therapy may be used independently in selected cases or alongside other acne treatments. The most appropriate approach depends on acne severity, medical history, skin type, and treatment goals. Moderate to severe acne, particularly when scarring is present, may require assessment and treatment by a qualified medical professional.
The Treatment Journey · What to Expect
Your visit follows four structured clinical steps, from examining active breakouts through comfortable contact-free phototherapy and tailored homecare.
Your provider assesses your acne severity, skin type, medical history, and treatment goals to determine whether Aerolase is appropriate and recommend a personalized treatment schedule.
Your skin is cleansed to remove surface makeup, excess oil, and impurities. Topical numbing or cooling is not typically required; your provider will discuss comfort with you.
Your provider moves the Aerolase handpiece above the treatment area, delivering controlled 650-microsecond laser pulses without direct skin contact. Most clients experience mild warmth or a gentle snapping sensation during treatment.
Following treatment, your provider may apply soothing skincare and sunscreen as appropriate. You will receive personalized aftercare instructions to support skin recovery and ongoing acne management.
Some clients notice improvements in redness and inflammation following their initial treatments, while others require several sessions before visible changes develop. Your provider will monitor your skin’s response and recommend an individualized treatment schedule to support continued improvement.
Preparation & Aftercare
Simple clinical guidelines to support your skin's response and recovery.
Arrive with skin free of makeup, heavy creams, and unnecessary skincare products. Your provider will cleanse the treatment area before beginning.
Inform your provider about prescription retinoids, exfoliating acids, benzoyl peroxide, and other acne medications. You may be advised to temporarily pause certain products depending on your skin’s sensitivity and treatment plan. Do not discontinue prescribed medications without appropriate guidance.
Avoid tanning and excessive sun exposure before your appointment. Inform your provider about recent sunburns, tanning, or changes in your skin condition.
Please inform your provider about any recent skin procedures, active infections or cold sores, and any updates to your general medical history before treatment.
Mild redness, warmth, or sensitivity may occur following treatment and is generally temporary. Contact the clinic if you experience persistent or worsening redness, blistering, significant swelling, unexpected pigmentation changes, or other concerning skin reactions following treatment.
Use a gentle cleanser and non-comedogenic moisturizer. Avoid harsh exfoliation, picking, and irritating skincare products until your skin has settled. Follow your provider’s instructions regarding makeup and active skincare ingredients.
Apply broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher daily and minimize excessive sun exposure to help protect treated skin and reduce the risk of pigmentation changes.

Common Inquiries
Clear, clinical answers about how Aerolase works, candidate suitability, comfort, session frequency, and downtime.
Aerolase Neo Elite uses a 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser with 650-microsecond pulses to deliver controlled energy into the skin. Treatment may help reduce inflammatory acne lesions, influence acne-associated bacterial and sebaceous activity, and improve visible redness. Results develop gradually and vary between individuals.
Most clients describe the sensation as gentle warmth or mild snapping against the skin. Aerolase treatments are generally well tolerated and typically do not require topical numbing cream. Sensitivity varies depending on the treatment area and individual skin response.
Many clients undergo a series of approximately 3–6 treatments, although the number and frequency depend on acne severity, treatment goals, and individual response. Your provider will recommend an appropriate treatment schedule following your skin assessment.
Aerolase Neo Elite can be used across a broad range of skin tones, including Fitzpatrick skin types IV–VI. Its 650-microsecond technology is designed to help minimize excessive thermal exposure to surrounding tissue. However, all laser treatments carry potential risks, including pigmentation changes, making professional assessment and appropriate treatment settings important.
Aerolase is a non-ablative laser treatment that typically requires minimal downtime. Some clients experience temporary redness, warmth, or mild swelling. Most can return to their usual activities shortly after treatment, following their provider’s aftercare recommendations.
Certain acne medications and active skincare ingredients may affect treatment suitability or skin sensitivity. Inform your provider about all prescription medications, including isotretinoin, topical retinoids, and other acne treatments. Your provider will assess whether any adjustments are necessary before treatment.
Aerolase primarily helps manage active inflammatory acne and may improve the appearance of certain post-acne marks, including redness and hyperpigmentation. Although some laser protocols may support collagen remodelling, deeper or depressed acne scars generally require a separate treatment approach. Your provider can recommend suitable options following a skin assessment.
Yes. Acne is influenced by several factors, including hormones, genetics, skincare habits, and sebaceous activity. While Aerolase may help reduce active breakouts, it does not permanently eliminate the underlying causes of acne. Maintenance treatments or a consistent skincare routine may be recommended depending on your individual needs.
Aerolase laser therapy may help improve inflammatory acne, but it does not necessarily replace prescription acne treatments. Depending on acne severity and individual circumstances, laser treatment may be recommended alongside an established skincare or medical treatment plan. Your provider can help determine whether additional medical assessment is appropriate.
Some clients notice changes in inflammation or redness after their initial sessions, while others require several treatments before visible improvements develop. Results vary depending on acne severity, skin characteristics, treatment frequency, and ongoing skincare. Your provider will monitor your progress and adjust recommendations as appropriate.
