Acne is a concern that continues from adolescence into adulthood. We have compiled frequently asked questions about Capri Laser, which addresses both sebaceous glands and sterilization.
Why does acne occur?
When sebaceous glands are overactive or dead skin cells accumulate, pores become blocked and acne develops. If bacteria invade, inflammation occurs, leading to redness, and sometimes leaving behind pigmentation or marks. Hormonal changes or excessive cleansing can also have an impact.
What happens if it's not managed in time?
If acne is left untreated, it can lead to scarring due to inflammation and bacterial spread. New acne may continue to appear and become chronic, so it is advisable to seek treatment before marks become established.
If self-care does not suit your skin type, it can easily lead to wasted time, so the step of checking your condition first is important.
How does Capri Laser work?
Capri Laser uses a dual wavelength to target sebaceous glands deep within the skin while also sterilizing the epidermal layer. It is used for various types of acne, including small bumps, comedonal acne, and pustular acne.
- Diode laser targets sebaceous glands
- Blue light sterilizes the epidermis
- Dual wavelength manages both the root cause and the surface
What about burns or pain?
It is designed with a cooling system to reduce discomfort while delivering high thermal energy. The instantaneous refrigerant spray method also helps reduce pain, but the degree of sensation varies from person to person.

What other changes can be expected besides acne?
The thermal energy stimulates collagen in the dermal layer, which can be used for fine lines and pore management, and the sterilizing effect of blue light can also help even out skin tone. However, results vary depending on the condition.
When is the best time to start?
Poor skin condition can affect confidence and daily life, and can lead to pigmentation or scars. It is advisable to seek early treatment for the sake of future skin health.
Acne requires considering both sebaceous gland and surface management. We recommend checking your condition and starting management before marks are left behind.
