The Dubai-based Aesthetica Clinic offers a revolutionary combined approach system, for the treatment of acne scars. Acne is one of the most common skin conditions that affect people of all ages. Almost 80% of teenagers have acne to some degree but generally outgrow the condition by their early twenties. However, some individuals suffer from the condition well into their thirties and beyond. The demand for effective treatments that can combat acne scarring has greatly increased recently among both men and women. This is such a sensitive condition, especially for those who suffer from severe acne scarring. It has a negative impact on their self-esteem and can hinder their social interaction and lower their confidence levels as well. So, this pesky problem is aesthetic and emotional.
The reputable, Aesthetica Clinic offers a wide range of solutions that can help to treat acne and acne scarring that are in most cases designed to work as a combined system which can, together generate more positive results.
Aesthetica Clinic has revolutionized the treatment of acne scarring by being able to, for the first time combine treatments to address individual needs, expectations and budgets. This innovative treatment system includes the use of Fractional Resurfacing Devices for ultimate skin resurfacing and renewal in conjunction with Cell Therapy (ACR), also Radiesse for deep scar augmentation, as well as subsicion and Micro needling.
Post-acne scarring is a very serious and stressful problem for patients and physicians alike. The actual scars are a result of tissue damage that has occurred due to the inflammation caused by the more severe forms of acne such as nodular or cystic acne. However, recently developed techniques have made this problem more manageable.
For treatment purposes acne scars can be classified as macular, atrophic and hypertrophic. The macular scars are generally scars that are at skin level and create some discoloration of the skin. Atrophic scars are depressed scars that are a result of collagen loss at the site of inflamed nodules and cysts. There are three types of atrophic scars: boxcar scars, which are angular scars that have sharp vertical edges and can be superficial or deep. They are also very similar to the scars left by chickenpox. Rolling scars which give the skin a wave-like appearance and ice-pick scars that are usually small, with somewhat jagged edges and steep sides—like wounds from an ice pick. Acne scars that are hypertrophic are thickened raised scars.
The first treatment option, the Pixel Perfect is an innovative aesthetic laser treatment that helps counteract years of sun damage or acne scarring. It provides noticeable results, often in as little as just one treatment session. Your face is an important part of who you are, so when you know your appearance is not at its best, it can greatly affect how you are feeling. Anyone who shows signs of aging is a candidate for Pixel Perfect. The most dramatic results are seen on people who have tried non-invasive therapies and are looking for something more aggressive. The treatment is suitable for all skin types, yet the best candidates have moderate sun damage, are in good health, have good health and lifestyle habits and typically take good care of their skin. The Pixel skin rejuvenation treatments usually take less than 30 minutes, but could be longer if your condition is more advanced. Pixel Perfect treatments are relatively safe and effective; they are conducted without injections or surgery. You can expect your skin to be slightly red after the treatment, but this is completely normal and short-lived. As long as you carefully follow your post-treatment instructions, this will be the limit of the difficulties you might experience. For most patients, a touch-up treatment after 6–12 months is advisable in order to help maintain a healthy glow.
Pixel Perfect works by creating thousands of microscopic perforations, but the skin around each of these perforations remains intact. This allows your skin's top layer to heal from the edge of these tiny holes very rapidly, which significantly improves your complexion. Basically, the Pixel® laser light passes through patented optics to penetrate the skin with tiny thermal channels, only as deep as a few sheets of paper. In each channel it creates a micro-injury, without disturbing the surrounding tissue.
The second treatment system is known as the Autologous Cellular Regeneration, or (ACR). ACR is a means of using the patient's own blood to harvest specific cells responsible for tissue repair, namely the platelets. Platelets are blood cells that initiate wound healing. The patient's own platelets are injected into the skin, just under the scar, to induce a powerful stimulation of collagen synthesis.
Subcision, is the third system which involves detaching the scar from deeper tissue, which helps to let a pool of blood form under the scar. The blood clot helps form connective tissue under the scar, leveling it with the surface and thus smoothing out the skin's surface. Generally, 1-3 treatments are necessary. Subcision is often combined with an organic peel, which has potent collagen stimulating properties.
The fourth and final system treatment solution is augmentation, which basically entails the injection of Calcium Hydroxylapetite ( trade name Radiesse) under the scar to bring it to the surface level. Normally this procedure includes 2 or 3 sessions of subcision and organic peeling. Radiesse is the ideal filler substance for this purpose since it is a biostimulant which promotes the formation of collagen at the site of the depressed scar.
Punch Techniques are used as a fifth treatment option. There are various punch techniques that essentially all involve punching out a core from the scar and allowing it to heal by creating collagen at the site of injury. These techniques are reserved for severe scars, especially ice-pick scars.
These treatments are all tailor-made to suit the patient, depending on each individual condition. They are non-invasive and present highly effective methods for the
treatment of acne scarring. These treatments can all be found at Aesthetica Clinic. Administration for most of these procedures is fairly quick, so that creates an added convenience and ease for patients. With all of these exciting solutions available at Aesthetica Clinic, there is no excuse to keep putting off the elimination of those annoying acne scars!
