Acne Scars
Concern: Depressed or textured scars from previous breakouts can create uneven skin tone and texture.
Treatment Options:
- CO2 Laser Resurfacing: Fractional laser energy targets scarred tissue and stimulates collagen regeneration, smoothing the skin over time.
- Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling: Stimulates collagen, breaks down scar tissue gradually with minimal downtime and multiple sessions.
CO2 vs. Microneedling Comparison:
- CO2 laser offers more dramatic results for deep or widespread scars in fewer sessions but with more redness, peeling, and downtime.
- Microneedling is better for patients seeking gradual improvement with less recovery time and lower risk of pigment changes.
