Everything you’ve tried has been treating the symptom. AviClear is the first FDA-cleared laser engineered to eliminate the source — your overactive sebaceous glands — permanently recalibrating oil production without oral medication, without systemic side effects, and with results that compound for months after your last session.
Consultations are available now. The $99 consultation fee applies in full to whichever package you choose — so you’re not spending $99, you’re locking in your price. If AviClear isn’t right for you, we’ll tell you that directly.
No commitment until after your consultation. Applied in full to your package.
“Every prior treatment manages overactive sebaceous glands. AviClear is the first technology that physically changes them.”
A proprietary 1726nm wavelength — engineered specifically for sebum. Not repurposed. Not a workaround. The first laser FDA-cleared to target acne at the source.
The 1726nm wavelength is selectively absorbed by sebum — the oil your glands overproduce. No surrounding tissue disrupted.
Thermal energy dials down oil production measurably — not destroying glands, but recalibrating them at the biological level.
Results emerge over 3–6 months and often keep improving into year two. No maintenance medication. Biology-level change — not symptom management.

I did Accutane twice. Both times it came back within a year. Six months after finishing AviClear my skin is the clearest it’s been since high school — and it keeps getting better.
Three sessions in the spring, zero breakouts by summer. I’ve been on retinoids since I was 16. I genuinely didn’t think clear skin was possible for me. I was wrong.
The team actually listened to what I’d already tried and why it failed. I felt like I was being treated by people who cared about the outcome — not just getting me booked. The difference is real.

Both include the full 3-session AviClear protocol. Your $99 consultation applies to whichever you choose.
Full clinical assessment with our physician-supervised team. We confirm candidacy, walk you through both packages, and build your plan. The $99 applies directly to whichever package you choose. If AviClear isn’t right for your skin, we’ll tell you — and suggest what is.
Dr. Grenier has spent decades caring for patients across San Francisco — building a practice on one principle: treat the root cause. AviClear earned her endorsement on the strength of its clinical data and the biology of what it actually does.
“I don’t offer treatments I wouldn’t recommend to my own family. AviClear works because it’s the first approach that changes the underlying biology — not just the surface presentation.”
Accutane temporarily shrinks sebaceous glands — and for many people, they return to baseline activity over time. AviClear recalibrates gland function through a different mechanism entirely. FDA clinical trial data showed 87% of patients achieved at least 50% reduction — including many who had failed Accutane and multiple antibiotic cycles.
Most patients describe a mild warmth during treatment. AviClear includes an integrated cooling system (AviCool™) that makes sessions significantly more comfortable than older laser technologies. Downtime is minimal — some redness for a few hours. Most patients return to normal activity the same day.
Most patients begin seeing improvement 4–6 weeks after their first session. Results continue building for 3–6 months after completing all three sessions — and often keep improving at the 6 and 12-month marks as your skin remodels at the cellular level.
