By laser cutting with a fractional laser the production of new and stronger connective tissue is stimulated. This will reduce the scar tissue caused by acne and make way for a healthier skin structure. Lasering scars with the fractional laser assumes at least 4 to 6 treatments. Your therapist will provide you with home advice.
Hyaluronic acid injectables
Facial grooves and pits in acne scars can be filled with injectables. Hyaluronic acid is a safe, naturally occurring substance that has virtually no side effects. It fills the grooves neatly and naturally, from the inside out. The skin becomes visibly smoother.
