What can help with my Acne Scarring?

One out of five acne suffers will be left with scarring! Acne scarring is most commonly left by a cyst or nodule that has burst and damaged the surrounding skin; however, it can be caused by any type of acne spot. Scarring can be seen as pits in the skin or just as marks left behind when a spot goes.  When the skin is healing, extra red blood cells rise to the surface of the skin to produce collagen (the skins natural healing process). However, a scar can be left behind due to an overproduction of collagen. When this happens, the body replaces the original skin with fibrosis tissue – therefore leaving the skin with an uneven skin texture.

ResurFACE Fractional Laser:

Our ResurFACE fractional laser can help with the improvement of acne scarring, the laser targets minute sections of the skin with the laser light, which penetrates the tissue, causing small columns of thermal damage which in turn stimulates significant collagen renewal. The surrounding non affected areas of skin aid the body’s natural recovery process, allowing dramatic improvement to the skin texture and appearance with little downtime.

Radiofrequency Microneedling:

Our latest RF (radiofrequency) Microneedling treatment will improve acne scarring too! This treatment penetrates the skin with ultrafine needles at different depths while simultaneously releasing radiofrequency energy to heat the skin in a controlled manner! This will in turn stimulate a wound healing response leading to the production of new collagen and elastin, leaving you with an even texture and more youthful looking skin!
