AviClear is the first and original TGA-cleared energy device for the treatment of mild to severe acne.
AviClear uses the power of laser light to selectively target and suppress sebaceous glands. Eliminating acne at the source without the need for prescription medications.
Acne forms when sebum, the oily substance on your skin, combines with dead skin cells and clogs your pores. Most acne treatments target other things that cause acne, but not the production of sebum.
92% of patients treated with AviClear saw at least half of their acne resolve at 12 months following treatment. And results may continue to improve with time — even several months after your treatment sessions are finished (AviClear.com, 2024).
Here, at your Hobart Acne Clinic, we are able to provide you with a personalised acne treatment where you create your own care package. This can include Hydrafacials, Dermalux blue light LED therapy, medical grade skin care acne packages and medical photography that allows you to follow your acne clearing journey and see your progress unfold.
Three 30-minute treatments, one month a part.
Is AviClear painful?
AviClear uses a skin cooling sensory control called AviCool Saphire that is designed to keep the skin at a regular temperature during treatment and therefore a more comfortable and safe experience for the patient. There is no Anaesthetic used for this treatment. Patients who undergo AviClear may experience a sensation like a slight snap or what has been described as a static shock during the treatment. The treatment is patient driven and centred, we have created a welcoming and comfortable environment to ensure patient comfort.
What is the downtime?
Some patients may experience swelling with or without pustules for as little as a few hours or up to a few days post-treatment. Dryness and itchiness can occur that may last a few weeks, which is where the importance of skin care to the patient will be noticed. Acne flare ups or 'purging' has the potential to occur after each AviClear treatment.
Having a good understanding of skin care is important after treatments to decrease irritation, and prevent scratching and potential of acne scarring. This will be discussed in your initial consult and we provide support and skin care options if the patient does not yet have their own regime.
Results are typically seen at least 3+ months after the third treatment. This timeline can differ per patient and results can be seen at 6 months with further improvement at 12 months.
Having a good understanding of medical grade skin care and a personal routine is required if your aftercare. This will be discussed in your initial consult where support is also provided if the patient wants to begin or change their skin care regime. Hobart Dermal Aesthetics stocks three medical-grade skin care ranges with two being dedicated to acne care, Biretix and ZO Skin Health.

A revolutionary medical device empowered by proprietary LED technology. It stands alone as the most advanced phototherapy system available, delivering precision, unmatched energy, and customisable performance.
During an LED session, the skin is gently exposed to low-level light energy, activating key cell receptors and triggering a transfer of light energy into cellular energy.
This energises skin cells, enhancing their functionality and promoting the renewal of cells for a more youthful, healthy, and radiant complexion.
During the treatment, you will feel a warm sensation over the face - similar to that of lying under the sun, recognised as an essential modality for skin care practitioners, all without the inconvenience of downtime.

Photo Dynamic Therapy is a medical treatment that uses a combination of a photosensitising cream and specific wavelengths of light to treat various conditions, including superficial basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in situ (Bowen’s disease).
Two treatments are required, seven days apart. A cream is applied to your skin, before being activated by an LED light. The activated cream selectively destroys only the skin cancer cells. This means that side effects such as scarring are minimised and healthy tissue surrounding the lesion is not affected.
PDT can produce excellent cosmetic improvements, as well as removing the problem cells. It is used when other treatments or surgery are considered unnecessary or unacceptable.
Patients will have the lesion prepped and the cream applied. The cream is not active until it is exposed to LED light.
The photosensitising cream is absorbed by the targeted cells, accumulating selectively in the abnormal or cancerous tissues. A wait time of three hours is required.
After the three hour incubation period, the drug is absorbed, the targeted area is exposed to light of a specific wavelength. This activates the photosensitiser, leading to the production of a photochemical reaction.
The cancer cells absorb the light sensitive medicated cream. A light is then applied to the area where the cancer is. The light causes the drug to react and produce a type of oxygen that kills the nearby cells.
PDT is a minimally invasive treatment, reducing the need for extensive surgery.
The photosensitising cream selectively accumulates in the targeted cells, minimising damage to surrounding healthy tissue.
Compared to some traditional treatments, PDT often results in fewer side effects.
PDT can be used to treat a variety of conditions, making it a versatile therapeutic option.
PDT is not suitable for deep basal cell cancers or squamous cell skin cancers. This is because the light cannot go deeply enough into the skin.
You may feel a stinging or burning sensation in the treatment area when the light is on. A fan or painkillers can be used to make the treatment more comfortable.
You can have more than one skin cancer treated at a time.
A scab forms where you had the treatment and you have a dressing in place to cover it. A steroid cream may be applied on the treatment area. This helps to reduce any itching.
The scab usually heals in about 3 weeks.
The light sensitising cream makes the treated skin more sensitive to sunlight. We recommend that you wear sunscreen of SPF 50+ for at least 72 hours. You might need to avoid bright light or sunlight for a time. This is because all your skin may be more sensitive to sunlight.
The treated area might have some inflammation. It may look pink, red and swollen. The site might also ooze or develop a crust. This should get better after a few days. But if you are worried contact Hobart Plastic Surgery.
For 1 lesion (two sessions) $900 total
For 2 lesions (two sessions) $1300 total
For 3 lesions or more (i.e. field area) (two sessions) $2,000 total
All LED light sessions of PDT take 20 minutes, and all have a final review appointment by our surgeon after 3 months (bulk billed appointment).
PDT is performed using a photosensitising cream and Dermalux Tri-Wave LED machine.
