Brisbane, California-based Cutera designed AviClear as a laser treatment for the safe, prescription-free reduction of existing acne, while it also demonstrates that, following use, future breakout episodes are shorter, less intense and more infrequent.
The company said in a news release that AviClear represents the only energy-based device to receive FDA 510(k) clearance for the treatment of mild, moderate and severe acne. The platform selectively targets the sebocytes and suppresses sebum production to treat acne outbreaks.
