Acne scars – what are they?
Acne scars are characteristic skin lesions that occur after acne. In many cases, atrophic scars are formed, i.e. classic skin depressions accompanied by discoloration. Such an unsightly form of scars is often the result of smallpox as well. In the treatment and reduction of this type of scars and other forms, platelet-rich plasma, dermapen, fractional laser and carboxytherapy are used, among m.in. We invite you to familiarize yourself with each of the methods.
Platelet-rich plasma scar reduction
Platelet-rich plasma for acne scars is one of the most effective treatments. The preparation is obtained from the patient’s own blood and, as specific for the body, it is not a source of allergic reactions and does not irritate the skin. This means that the procedure is completely safe. However, these are not the only advantages of using plasma for scars. Among the benefits, it is also worth mentioning the active thrombocytes contained in plasma. They are responsible for the multiplication and maturation of new epidermal cells. In addition, they contribute to the improvement of microcirculation and support the stimulation of fibroblasts to produce new collagen fibers. All this has a significant impact on skin revitalization.
Among the most important advantages of using platelet-rich plasma for scars , it is worth emphasizing the fact that it brings natural and gradual results. At first, you may feel slight thickening under the skin, but this is a symptom that disappears completely spontaneously after a short time. In the skin, in turn, the processes of cell renewal and the synthesis of new collagen fibers begin to take place. Scar reduction with platelet-rich plasma smoothes the complexion, which is clearly noticeable, and the acne or smallpox scars themselves are much less visible. In addition to the obvious results of a smoother complexion, you also regain confidence and comfort.
The acne scar reduction treatment does not require convalescence and is short – it does not take more than 30 minutes, but it all depends on the extent of the lesions on the skin. The visibility of the effects improves even within a few months after completing a series of platelet-rich plasma treatments for scars.
Scar reduction with dermapen
Dermapen for postoperative, traumatic, acne or smallpox scars is one of the leading methods of reducing them. Importantly, dermapen also copes well with scars in its mature form. It is an excellent alternative to surgical procedures. Dermapen not only perfectly minimizes scars, but also restores skin firmness, smooth structure and proper, healthy color. This is due to the deep regeneration of the skin. By using dermapen on acne scars, you can also give your skin a deep rejuvenating therapy.
The dermapen scar reduction procedure involves micro-punctures. The device has a disposable, sterile cartridge with thin needles with adjustable length. In place of micro-damages, active substances are applied, thanks to which their absorption is up to several hundred times more effective. Deliberately inducing controlled inflammation triggers natural healing processes. There is an increased production of elastin and hyaluronic acid in the skin and collagen fibers are rebuilt. The effects of dermapen on acne scars include shallowing and smoothing of scars and evening out the color.
Fractional laser scar reduction
Removing smallpox, acne and other scars with a fractional laser is one of the ways to ensure risk-free, safe, complete skin regeneration. Fractional laser for scars is an innovative and modern solution that allows you to eliminate unsightly lesions without pain.
Fractional laser for acne scars is used in a series of treatments. The course of the treatment includes irradiation of properly cleansed and disinfected skin with a laser beam. Immediately after the procedure, slight swelling and redness can be noticed, but within a few days the renewal processes and effective reconstruction of the damaged skin are stimulated. Scars as a result of ablation are replaced with regenerated, healthy tissue.
Scar removal with fractional laser does not require a long recovery period, and the effects of the laser can be noticed immediately after healing. A spectacular difference occurs within 2 months after the procedure, when the scar shallow is most visible.
Scar reduction with carboxytherapy
Carboxytherapy for scars is an excellent method to remove and treat them without the need for surgical intervention. In the case of carboxytherapy, healed scars are treated, as the use of this method is not recommended in the case of fresh scars.
Carboxytherapy has a number of advantages. First of all, scars of any type, e.g. burns or skin damage, can be treated, which is why it is a method that is eagerly used when you want, m.in to reduce postoperative scars. In addition, it is a precise and safe procedure with low invasiveness, which does not cause negative effects and does not require long recovery or preparation time. Woven tissue is regenerated by stimulating the natural regenerative forces of a given body, and not by using controlled damage.
Carboxytherapy treatment for scars after surgery or caesarean section involves the application of a controlled dose of carbon dioxide under the surface layer of the scar. This allows blood to flow more easily and the necessary nutrients to be transported. The very presence of carbon dioxide is interpreted by the body as an oxygen deficit, which causes the circulatory system to start intensive oxygenation of tissues. As a result of a number of repair processes, m.in. acne scars are permanently eliminated during carboxytherapy. The intentionally induced inflammation stimulates deep regenerative processes of the dermis and supports the reconstruction of collagen fibers. The most important effects of carboxytherapy on scars include visible smoothing of the skin and undesirable elimination of scars.
