Understanding How Acne Can Turn Into Scarring
Acne is a fickle thing; if you're not careful, it can turn into something a little more serious…
Scarring.
When acne breakouts penetrate the skin deeply, they damage the skin and the tissue beneath it. As the acne clears, the body tries to repair this damage.
During the healing process, the body produces collagen — a substance that gives the skin support. If the body produces too little or too much collagen, we're left with indentations and texture within our skin, otherwise known as scarring.
Luckily, all hope is not lost. Here at The Dream Skin Clinic, we have two handy treatments to combat scarring including our 3D RF Gold needling and Dual Fractional Resurfacing.
Here's a quick run-down:
Dual Fractional Resurfacing is a new concept involving a combination technique of ablative fractional skin rejuvenation and long-pulsed fractional treatment. For total resurfacing of texturised skin, it is necessary to induce collagen remodelling in the deep dermis through thermal effects from the long pulse treatment and superficial ablation with the short pulse approach.
Therefore, Dual Fractional Resurfacing is an upgraded treatment technique perfect for scarring, enlarged pores and textural concerns.
3D RF Gold Needling is a new technology that delivers real results for skin rejuvenation and blemish scarring correction. Complete control over treatment depth and energy levels enable a multi-layered targeted approach for truly customised treatments with no electrothermal damage to the epidermis, regardless of your skin type or tanned skin.
Its proven and impressive design delivers 3-dimensional energy to volumise tissue. RF energy delivered via insulated gold-coated micro-needles creates precise and controllable fractionated coagulation zones within a specific dermis layer. For a superior scarring treatment, the results are outstanding.
