Acleara Acne Clearing System

Acleara Acne Clearing System

The American Academy of Dermatology* reports that acne vulgaris is the most common skin condition in the United States. Approximately 80% of all people between the ages of 11 and 30 suffer from acne with many continuing to have acne into their 40s and beyond.


Introducing the Acleara™ Acne Clearing System, the first continuously-cooled system FDA-cleared to treat mild to moderate inflammatory acne (Acne Vulgaris), comedonal acne, and pustular acne.  The Acleara Acne Clearing System is powered by an advanced vacuum and filtered broadband light technology.

A vacuum cleans pores by extracting build up of sebaceous material. Along with the targeted heating of sebaceous glands, the endogenous light activates porphryns to destroy P. acnes and reduces sebum production through photodynamic action.

Acleara is manufactured by Theravant, Inc. and sold exclusively by Palomar.

"I have performed over 15,000 treatments over 5 years using a number of different technologies to treat acne. The Acleara system has proven more effective, less painful and it delivers superior results as compared to any previous technologies I have tried in treating active acne."

"Acleara treatments are very comfortable and fast. We are very pleased with the outcomes - especially on comedonal acne and pustular acne. We have used older generations of vacuum, light technology for years and Acleara is a true advance with its built-in cooling, silicon treatment tips and advanced treatment modes for sensitive skin. All of our treatment providers and patients unquestionably prefer Acleara."
-Robert Weiss, MD

"Unlike conventional acne therapies that can take several weeks to start working, Acleara shows results within a week or two, and this has been life changing - especially for our teenage acne patients or patients with a major upcoming social event. My wife has become our newest Acleara fan for her acne flares."
