TREATMENTS FOR SCARING & ACNE
Scarring can occur for a variety of reasons, acne scarring being the most common type. There are different forms and different approaches to repairing scar tissue.
INFINI
The Infini system is a micro-needling radio frequency (RF) treatment used to treat scars, enlarged pore size, acne and skin textural problems. It works by using multiple micro-needles to penetrate the skin and administer heat through RF to the targeted layer. The advantage of the Infini compared to many other micro needling systems is the inclusion of RF. The penetration of these needles begins a trauma process within the skin, whereby the collagen already established is broken up and then begins to rebuild itself. This is extremely beneficial for scaring and enlarged pores.
CHEMICAL PEELS
Chemical Peels are often made of Alpha hydroxy acids (AHA’s) or beta hydroxyl acids (BHA’s) and are applied to the skin for improvement in pigmentation issues, textural concerns, acne and sun damage including solar keratosis. Chemical peels are a safe and effective way to exfoliate away the skins surface to improve the concerns outlined above. Depending on the issue of concern your physician will outline a treatment plan.
LASER GENESIS
Laser Genesis is considered to be a non invasive form of laser technology which is used to treat large pores, fine lines, scars and diffuse redness. It works by gently heating the upper part of the dermis to about 44 degrees Celsius which is the optimum amount of heat to gently stimulate collagenosis (the process whereby new collagen is formed) and constrict any dilated capillaries.
HYDRAFACIAL
The HydraFacial uses patented technology in 4 different steps to give the skin a deep cleanse and bright glow. The combination of a cleanse and peel, extractions and protection leaves the skin looking fresh and radiant. The technology of the HydraFacial machine improves skin health and creates an instantly noticeable improvement in skin tone and texture.
MICRO NEEDLING
Microneedling also known as collagen induction therapy is a procedure that involves multiple injections of highly concentrated vitamins and minerals into the dermal layer of the skin. The procedure is mildly invasive and is recommended for the treatment of irregular skin texture, fine lines and scarring. The solution used on each client is tailored specific to their needs and concerns depending on what the effect needed is.
