What is Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)?

Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) at Skin Experts is an advanced, non-surgical treatment that combines a photosensitizing solution with a specific wavelength of light to target and destroy abnormal or rapidly dividing skin cells. It is highly effective for treating precancerous lesions, superficial skin cancers, and severe acne — offering clear, healthy skin without invasive procedures.

Am I a Good Candidate for PDT?

You may be a suitable candidate for Photodynamic Therapy if:

  • You have diffuse precancerous lesions or superficial skin cancer.
  • You suffer from severe acne and wish to avoid or cannot tolerate isotretinoin.
  • You prefer a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment with fast healing (usually within 7 days).
  • You can avoid sun exposure for 48 hours post-treatment, as the skin becomes highly photosensitive.
  • You seek a scar-free, safe, and effective alternative to aggressive therapies like liquid nitrogen or extensive surgery.

Benefits of Photodynamic Therapy

  • Non-invasive and precise—targets abnormal cells while sparing healthy skin.
  • Effective for precancerous lesions, skin cancer, and acne.
  • Fast recovery— most patients heal completely within a week.
  • No scarring, making it ideal for facial treatments.
  • Alternative to isotretinoin, offering similar acne-clearing benefits without systemic side effects.
  • Customizable treatment plan based on skin type, lesion severity, and acne condition.
  • Minimal downtime — performed as an outpatient procedure.

More About PDT at Skin Experts

Developed and refined by Dr. Touma, Photodynamic Therapy is recognized as the gold standard for managing diffuse precancerous and superficial cancerous skin lesions.

The treatment uses a light-sensitizing medication activated by a specific light wavelength to selectively destroy abnormal or acne-causing cells — all without the need for surgery. PDT also helps simulate the effects of months of isotretinoin treatment, offering clearer skin safely and effectively.

Post-treatment, it is vital to avoid sunlight for 48 hours to prevent burns and ensure optimal healing.
