you go for sessions where you leave the levulan kerastick (which is the medicine)on your face for a specific amount of time..and then sit in the bluelight. i had this done and the sessions took about 8 weeks over all. it was probably one of the best decisions of my life. i am such a happier person now that i dont have to worry about acne. i seriously had stage 4 acne, and had tried absolutley every product on the market. now my skin is perfectly clear.

First, don't use any treatments on your face that contain any type of alcohol. (when you dry you face out, it just makes more oil = more acne ie. oxy pads)
Stay away from perfumed soaps to cleanse your face with.
If your a girl, use hyper-allergenic make-up and be sure to wash it off (as below) every night!
Try a facial cleansing routine:
EVERY MORNING AND EVERY EVENING-
1. Wash/scrub your face with face wash (Dove or Oil of Olay makes good facial cleansing products that come in a bottle). And rinse your face by hand, ie. throw water into your face.
2. Apply a Toner. (also made by those above..DAB -DO NOT RUB- it on and wait for it to dry)
Then..
3. Apply a face lotion, I would recommend one that is recommended for oily skin.
If you stick to this regimen, it may very well help!
