Does the Coolbeam Laser permanently prevent acne and the scars?

I remember reading a long time ago that the Coolbeam laser prevents acne by permanently destroying the oil glands after 6 treatments. Is this true? If you tried it, how has it worked for you? Any better options?

acne is a chronic skin condition if not treated. mild acne of adolescence can fade after puberty. but if acne persists or deteriorates, even after then you must consult a dermatologist or else it will keep on causing scars. laser will just remove the scars. yes permanently! but if you do not cure your acne you will keep on getting newer scars. normally specialists in laser treatment must undergo an acne treatment first before doing any laser manipulations. acne tend to cause skin openings and direct laser beams can be harmful to the skin in such a condition.
Hi – My acne got to a point last year where I was so upset after trying all of the creams and pills from the dermatologist, that I finally decided to try the coolbeam laser. It was really expensive and the Dr. said it would not be permanent, but would improve my acne that I did have at the time. First, they make you put on this topical gel which is supposed to numb your face up, but it doesn’t – just makes your face really cold. Then after you rinse that off, you’re ready. I laid down in the chair and as soon as the laser hit my skin, I screamed! It hurt so dang bad that I only lasted a minute or two. It feels like someone is shooting a bunch a needles into your breakouts. SO painful and not worth the $$$.
