Active Acne Treatment (QOOL Carbon Peel or RecoSMA®)

LINLINE offers two alternative, non-thermal options for active acne on the MULTILINE™ base unit. They are not performed in the same session; the choice based on current needs, timing, and skin status:

1. Carbon Peel in QOOL mode — fast “deep-clean + calm” with no downtime (event-ready).
2. RecoSMA® field therapy — regenerative, anti-inflammatory care that also addresses post-acne marks and scars.

Option 1 — Carbon Peel (QOOL mode, no downtime)

What it does
Quickly reduces inflammation and shine, deeply cleans pores, refines tone and texture, and—on facial areas—can thin vellus hair as a bonus.

How it works
A thin layer of pure carbon is applied and first worked into the skin. Carbon is an ideal chromophore: under QOOL pulse-trains (nanosecond pulses at 1079 nm), the laser couples to carbon and ejects it from pores, “vacuuming” debris and oil while stimulating the skin. LINLINE’s high-power, precisely sequenced pulse-trains drive carbon deeper and clear more thoroughly than single-shot analogs—without injuring the skin surface.

Why patients like it

• Zero downtime: back to normal life the same day.
• All-season, sun-friendly protocol (follow everyday SPF as good practice).
• Event-ready: a reliable “first-aid” option when you need a quick visual reset.

Why practitioners like it

• Fast, comfortable session; no anaesthesia or contact gels.
• Combines pore cleansing with vellus-hair reduction on the face.
• Predictable endpoints; streamlined workflow on MULTILINE™.

Option 2 — RecoSMA® (skin regeneration & anti-inflammatory therapy)

What it does
Helps settle active inflammation, normalize skin function, and improve texture—ideal when breakouts coexist with post-acne scars and lingering dark/red marks.

How it works (simple)
Using the Er:YAG emitter with the SMA module, RecoSMA® delivers thousands of ≤ 50 µm micro-beams that produce microscopic surface micro-ablations and deep, non-thermal micro-stimulation. This triggers regeneration (collagen remodeling, improved microcirculation), so skin looks and behaves healthier over the following weeks.

Why patients like it

• Visible improvement in texture and tone; supports scar-risk reduction.
• Short social downtime (a few days of bronzing/micro-dots, then shedding).
• Designed to preserve the epidermal barrier, so aftercare is simple.

Why practitioners like it

• A field-level treatment for acne-prone skin: anti-inflammatory and regenerative.
• Addresses post-acne scars and spots within the same course.
• Can be used under physician supervision alongside hormonal therapy (e.g., isotretinoin), according to clinical protocols.

Choosing between them

Treatments are alternatives per visit. In a longer plan, practitioners may schedule QOOL Carbon Peel in one visit and RecoSMA® in separate later visits, if indicated.

What a visit is like

Carbon Peel

• Feel: light warmth/snaps as carbon is cleared.
• After: skin looks clean, matte, and calmer; no downtime.

RecoSMA®

• Feel: brief warmth/tingling; anaesthesia typically not needed.
• After: several social days of bronzing/micro-dots; then smoother, more even skin as remodeling progresses.

Indications & areas

• Active inflammatory acne (face/neck/back).
• Carbon Peel when fast visual improvement and pore cleansing are needed now.
• RecoSMA® when there are texture issues, early or established post-acne scars, and persistent red/brown marks.

Safety notes

• Carbon Peel: all-season, painless when performed correctly; avoid eyes/tattoos; remove make-up/oils pre-treatment.
• RecoSMA®: minimal restrictions; standard laser precautions apply. May be integrated with physician-managed systemic therapy when appropriate.

Benefits at a glance

For patients

• Two doctor-selected options tailored to your situation—fast relief (QOOL Carbon Peel) or deeper change (RecoSMA®).
• Comfortable treatments with little to no downtime.
• Pathway that can also address post-acne scars and spots.

For practitioners

• Clear choice per visit: rapid, no-downtime pore therapy vs. regenerative field therapy.
• Preset-guided workflows on a single MULTILINE™ platform.
• Flexibility to stage vascular/pigment touch-ups in separate visits when needed.

Key takeaway

For active acne, LINLINE provides two alternative, non-thermal treatments—Carbon Peel (QOOL) for immediate calm and deep cleansing with no downtime, and RecoSMA® for regenerative, anti-inflammatory improvement with benefits for post-acne marks and scars. Your clinician selects the best option per visit to match your goals and timeline.
