5-ALA 20% Small
Experience the power of advanced skin rejuvenation with our 5-ALA 20% treatment. This innovative therapy utilizes Topical 5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA), a potent agent that selectively targets abnormal skin cells and bacteria.
How It Works:
During the treatment, 5-ALA is applied to the skin for a specific duration, allowing it to penetrate and be absorbed by the affected areas. Following this application, the skin is exposed to Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), which activates the 5-ALA, leading to the destruction of abnormal cells. As these cells are eliminated, they are replaced by healthy, normal skin cells, promoting a rejuvenated and revitalized appearance.

30 minutes of incubation time is required without occlusion.
This unit is for single use only. The ALA comes with a small vial containing a powdered solution and a solvent, which is mixed in to activate the treatment.
Unlike cream tubes that must be used within a few days once opened—often at a high cost—this ALA formulation allows for activation only when you're ready to use it. This means it has a longer shelf life when not activated.
PDT (Photodynamic Therapy) is a non-surgical and minimally invasive treatment primarily used for advanced acne (grades 3 to 5) and sun damage. PDT has been proven to be highly effective both therapeutically and cosmetically, even for severe acne.
During the treatment, a medication called 5-ALA (Topical 5-Aminolevulinic Acid) is applied to the skin for a specified time. The ALA is selectively absorbed by abnormal skin cells and bacteria. Following this, the skin is exposed to Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), which activates the 5-ALA. This process results in the destruction of the abnormal cells, which are then replaced by healthy skin cells.
Results are enhanced by incorporating active skincare cosmeceuticals.
