Recent breakthroughs in
aesthetic medicine have led to increasing success in improving the
appearance of various forms of acne scars. Potential treatments include
laser, dermabrasion, microdermabrasion, Chemical
Peel, cosmetic fillers, and medical grade skin care products.
Since
skin lesions come in various sizes and shapes, individualizing
treatments
becomes necessary to maximize the results.
Take at look at the following videos to learn more about each specific procedure.
Fraxel
laser is a new new and exciting technology in the
treatment
skin's lesions.
The
treatment delivers a series of microscopic laser spots penetrating the
stratum
corneum of the skin and leaving it absolutely intact.
Fraxel™
is
a unique non invasive therapy designed and FDA approved to dramatically
improve
acne scars.

Plasma skin regeneration is a completely new plasma energy technology
that works both on and below the surface of the skin to modify the
skin's architecture so that new collagen is generated.
During
this treatment a doctor passes the procedure tool over the affected
area of skin without actually ever touching the skin.
Plasma
energy is then distributed evenly across the skin and collagen
regeneration begins almost instantly. Results can be seen almost
immediately after treatment, and they get better with time.
CO2 energy laser is the ideal because it treats the
areas of discoloration closer to the surface and also penetrates deep
into the dermis, eliminating damaged cells and stimulating the growth
of new collagen.
Collagen is stimulated for up to 6 months and this new collagen
regeneration lifts and supports the skin's surface.
So in
addition to improving the texture and the appearance of the skin, we
are able to obtain a dramatic improvement with skin laxity. The
generation of the new skin cells in combination with collagen
stimulation will dramatically improve the appearance of the
scars.
The idea behind acne scar subcision is that when a scar forms the
healing of the collagen becomes 'short' in places between the outer
epidermis level of the skin and the inner dermis level of the skin.
The doctor just cuts the 'short' collagen fibers and they
hopefully will be replaced by fresh collagen that has 'longer' fibers
attaching the lower dermis to the upper epidermis.
When the length of the collagen fibers between the upper
epidermis and the lower dermis level of the skin are elongated the scar
disappears from the surface of the skin. Flawless skin is the
result.
Acne scar Smoothbeam is a great choice if you are looking for a new non
ablative laser stimulating collagen production in the skin and
improving the appearance of depressed acne scars.
This
treatment employs new process with Dynamic Cooling Device. This device
first deep-cools the area of skin to be treated with a cryogen spray
which protects the skin. Then the laser beam targets the upper dermis.
It
is a non-invasive way to treat acne and acne scars do not cutting or
removing the skin surface. Their action occurs underneath the outer
layers of the skin. There is generally no down time.
The
laser stimulate the skin and the scars are gradually filled in by your
body's own collagen
TCA CROSS (chemical reconstruction of skin
scars) is a method in which
trichloracetic acid is used to spot treat each scar.
During the
treatment, a high concentration of Trichlorocetic acid is introduced
just inside the scar. The resurfacing response that occurs inside the
depression stimulates collagen production which eventually causes the
scar to rise up and close in on itself.
Dr.roller consists of 192
specially treated high strength stainless needles. Drilling holes in
the skin with such precisely machined needles regenerates the skin
quickly and prevents a wound in the skin.
The Derma Roller has been hugely successful in treating acne
scars, chicken pox scars,
after surgery scars, burn scars, coarse skin, pitted skin and large
pores.
Results vary from patient to patient and the duration of treatment is
dependent on the severity, depth and extent of the scarring and the
speed of the user’s personal healing response time.
Dermabrasion
is a technique that uses a wire brush or a diamond wheel with rough
edges (called a burr or fraise) to remove the upper layers of the skin.
The brush or burr rotates rapidly, taking off and leveling (abrading or
planing) the top layers of the skin.
This process injures or wounds the
skin and causes it to bleed.
As the wound heals, new skin grows to replace the damaged
skin that was removed during dermabrasion.
Microdermabrasion is mechanical exfoliation that removes the uppermost
layer of dead skin cells from the face, chest and hands.
Microdermabrasion uses a powerful device to spray microcrystals of
aluminum dioxide (corundum powder) across the skin’s surface.
The
aluminum dioxide is a very fine, very hard, sand-like material that
blasts away the uppermost layer of dead skin cells on the skin's
epidermis.
For best results, it is recommended you get a series of treatments and
use high-tech anti-aging skin care products.
