What Is Photodynamic Therapy?

Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses a photosensitizing agent and specific light wavelengths to target damaged or abnormal skin cells. At Rejuvenation Medical Aesthetics in Calgary, PDT is effectively used for treating skin cancer, acne, and sun damage. The photosensitizing agent is applied to the skin, absorbed by abnormal cells, and activated by light, destroying targeted cells without harming surrounding tissue.
