Accure Acne Announces New FDA Clearance for the Long-Term Treatment of Acne

The Groundbreaking Accure Laser System is now indicated for the long-term treatment of mild to severe inflammatory acne vulgaris

BOULDER, Colo., Oct. 15, 2024 -- Accure Acne, Inc.™ (www.accureacne.com), a pioneer in the development of innovative solutions for the treatment of acne, announced today that it has received a new FDA Clearance K242035 for the long-term treatment of mild to severe inflammatory acne vulgaris.

"This achievement cannot be overstated," commented Christopher Carlton, Accure Acne, Inc.'s Co-Founder, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. "After many years of rigorous technical, scientific, and clinical development, The Accure Laser has delivered yet another milestone achievement-the ability to provide a significant, sustained, and durable drug-free alternative for acne patients and their providers," continued Mr. Carlton. "This is the vision of Accure Acne and our North Star. Having achieved this, we remain committed to further expanding the use of the Accure Laser and welcome clinicians around the world to partner with us."   

The Accure Laser System unlocks the unique selectivity of the 1726 nm laser wavelength, adding proprietary and first-in-class technology to precisely control thermal gradient depth to have maximum impact on the sebaceous gland. This treat-to-temperature mechanism of action has been validated through multiple IRB-approved clinical trials in the United States, achieving an average inflammatory lesion count reduction of 70% at 6 months after a series of four treatments spaced about one month apart. This was observed for all skin types and severities of acne.

Accure Acne recently completed a limited commercial release earlier this year in the United States, delivering significant clinical outcomes, as well as consistent provider and patient satisfaction scores of over 4.4 out of 5. Since then, Accure has expanded the availability of the Accure Laser System in multiple regions, with first adopters in the Middle East, Europe, The Caribbean, and Asia Pacific, where patients of all severities and skin types can benefit from a safe, effective, and now durable clinical outcome.

"This accomplishment is a testament to the relentless pursuit of this goal by Accure, Quanta System, and the team of clinicians and researchers who have spent many years together to bring the Accure Laser to the world", added Emil Tanghetti, MD, Founder of The Center for Dermatology and Laser Surgery in Sacramento, CA, and the first Accure Laser investigator in the world. "Our journey in understanding the unique nature of this wavelength and the clinical requirements needed to deliver significant clinical outcomes was certainly challenging. The technical innovations of using temperature as an endpoint, combined with forced air cooling and real-time monitoring algorithms has produced a solution that stands alone from more traditional power-based methods. This unique laser has a platform that can be modified and adjusted to possibly treat a number of other skin conditions. I am excited about the future of this device and technology."

Seaweed extract shown to relieve prostate symptoms

In a breakthrough clinical trial undertaken by Australian biotechnology company Marinova, a unique seaweed extract has been shown to relieve the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). HOBART, Australia , July 27, 2026 -- A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluated the effects of fucoidan, a naturally occurring compound found in brown seaweed, on men with BPH (prostate enlargement). BPH is a common health issue for men across the globe. Worldwide estimates place prevalence at 50-60% of men in their 60s, increasing to 90% of men in their 80s. While it is typically not life-threatening, urinary symptoms including difficulty passing urine, a weak stream and an increase in the frequency of urination often result in a significant reduction in quality-of-life.
