Acne Scar Treatment
derm-infonet has written acne scar treatment, they write "The scar treatments that are currently available: Collagen injection. Collagen, a normal substance of the body, is injected under the skin to "stretch" and "fill out" certain types of superficial and deep soft scars. Collagen treatment usually does not work as well for ice-pick scars and keloids. Collagen derived from cows or other non-human sources cannot be used in people with autoimmune diseases. Human collagen or fascia is helpful for those allergic to cow-derived collagen. Cosmetic benefit from collagen injection usually lasts 3 to 6 months.
Additional collagen injections to maintain the cosmetic benefit are done at additional cost.Acne scars frequently heal by themselves after the underlying problem has been treated. Dermatologists have developed several approaches to treating acne scars, or pockmarks, that do not heal on their own."
Dermatologychannel has written acne scar treatment, they write "Dermabrasion is a treatment that involves physically scraping off the top layer of skin. After deep dermabrasion treatments, time off from work or school is needed for recovery. This method removes acne scars very effectively. The less invasive approach, microdermabrasion, scrapes off a very thin layer and doesn't require recovery time away from work or school."
Cosmeticskin has written acne scar treatment, they write "For “box car” depressions and certain types of sharper edged scars, subcision in combination with the Fraxel laser has been highly effective. The Fraxel has proven to be an excellent tool to smooth out sharper borders non-ablatively with results that are superior to those resulting from more invasive resurfacing technologies (i.e. CO2). In fact, if the scars being treated are superficial, subcision can probably be circumvented altogether. Additionally, patients being treated with the Fraxel benefit from the laser’s inherent ability to reduce the visibility of pores, a common problem for people plagued with acne."
Asds-net has written acne scar treatment, they write "thanks to the refinement of a number of dermatologic surgical techniques, acne scars can be treated with a variety of safe, effective procedures that improve the appearance of a patient's skin and boost the patient's self-esteem. Your dermatologic surgeon will choose the technique or combination of treatment approaches based upon the nature of the scarring, the patient's medical history, and the status of recent clinical studies in this rapidly evolving area of research. Following are common techniques and procedures used to improve acne scarring: The dermatologic surgeon freezes the patient's skin or uses tumescent anesthesia and then removes or "abrades" the skin with a rotary instrument. The skin undergoes a "remodeling" process as it heals, resulting in a smoother and fresher appearance. View the Dermabrasion fact sheet for more information."
