Scars brought about by acne, chicken pox, stretch marks or accidents are common these days. Up until recently these conditions have been very difficult to treat without the risk of long term complications.
Teenage acne is a major cause for many adults being left with unsightly acne scars, even after the active acne has been successfully treated.
Today’s latest laser technology is allowing us to treat most forms of scaring on the majority of different skin types with very little to risk.
Fractionated Lasers such as the Fraxel, are extremely effective for treating acne scars. It treats a “fraction” of the skin by creating thousands of tiny perforations, whilst leaving undamaged skin intact. These undamaged cells move into the “damaged area”, and heal the wounded area. The injury to the damaged skin causes collagen stimulation.
Further collagen remodelling takes place for 3-6 months and the number of treatments will depend on the severity of the acne scars, but usually 3 are required.
