Acne scars and pockmarks

Acne scars and pockmarks are typically caused by infection, inflammation, or external pressure, often resulting from untreated or improperly treated acne. Inflammatory responses in skin cells can lead to localized necrosis and liquefaction of skin tissue, resulting in tissue defects beneath the surface and the formation of scars. These scars are often distributed unevenly, irregular in shape, and exhibit noticeable indentations or elevations in the skin.

Treatment Plan

Fotona offers a laser acne treatment protocol that provides a truly comprehensive solution to the problem of acne. Fotona’s precisely controlled Nd:YAG laser light safely penetrates into skin to effectively target overactive sebaceous glands and to reduce the risk of developing new acne inflammation.

For improving the appearance of acne scars, Fotona offers a complementary laser treatment based on a precise and gentle skin resurfacing procedure in which an Er:YAG laser beam is absorbed by the top micro-layers of the skin to vaporize scarred tissue and stimulate the production of new collagen in the dermis.

Fast results, Without Side-Effects

For active acne, Fotona’s laser treatment reduces acne inflammation through photoselective absorption and controlled heating effects. Fotona’s high powered Nd:YAG laser safely penetrates the skin to an optimal treatment depth to thermally and selectively destroy overactive sebaceous glands.

In addition to its thermal penetration effects, the Nd:YAG acne laser treatment also accelerates the healing process and stimulates collagen remodeling, an important step in the long-term treatment of acne.

Gentle & Effective Acne Scar Revision

For treating problematic acne scars, Fotona's Er:YAG laser wavelength is ideal for gentle ablative scar revision. The Er:YAG laser safely and effectively provides the minimal penetration depth required for light resurfacing of acne-scarred skin, helping to improve skin texture and tone. Unlike chemical peels and dermabrasion, laser skin resurfacing allows the penetration depth to be precisely controlled. The laser gently vaporizes micron-thin layers of the acne-scarred surface to reveal healthy, undamaged skin below. Laser resurfacing is a fast, safe and simple procedure.

Microneedling With PRP：

PRP, or Platelet-Rich Plasma, is plasma derived from the separation of platelets in autologous blood. PRP contains autologous repair factors. When combined with microneedling, PRP stimulates collagen regeneration, resulting in excellent anti-inflammatory and reparative effects. (PRP can also be used for scalp hair growth treatments.)

Microneedling With Exosome:

Exosomes are small vesicles secreted by cells, containing various bioactive substances such as proteins, lipids, and RNA. In the field of aesthetics, exosomes are primarily utilized to improve skin nutrition, promote collagen synthesis, and reduce inflammation. These effects contribute to anti-aging, skin brightening, and firming.
