About PD-13 Therapy

Photo-Activated Acne Correction

An advanced light-activated acne treatment designed to reduce sebum production, eliminate acne-causing bacteria and calm inflammation without harsh irritation. PD-13 Therapy combines a professional-grade photosensitising solution with Red Light Therapy to deliver targeted correction with minimal downtime. Safe, controlled and suitable for most skin types.

HOW IT WORKS:

PD-13 utilises Methyl Aminolevulinate HCl (MAL), a photosensitising agent that selectively targets sebaceous (oil) glands. When activated under Red LED Light, MAL converts into Protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), producing oxygen within the skin.

This process:

  • Destroys acne-causing bacteria
  • Reduces excess oil production
  • Minimises inflammation
  • Supports lesion recovery
  • Helps prevent recurrence

Unlike traditional acne treatments, this approach treats the source without damaging surrounding healthy tissue.
