This AAD.org paper offers relief for many skin problems:

The 1450 nm diode laser targets acne by heating the deep layer of the skin, where the oil glands are located, while a specially equipped cooling device protects the top layer of skin from injury. Dr. Taub explained that studies demonstrate outstanding results with this laser therapy in treating inflammatory acne, with one long-term study reporting a 90 percent improvement at two years post-treatment. One potential drawback is that treatments can be painful, with some researchers cautioning that they may be too painful for teenagers.
