Acne scarring can indeed be a distressing and emotional topic for individuals who suffer from it. It is a very common skin condition which is not only limited to teenagers. Adult women and men in their 30s, 40s, and even 50s are experiencing breakouts! These can often leave the person feeling unattractive and unduly self-conscious, effectively inhibiting their behaviour and capacity to express themselves in many ways.

With the amount of surgical and cosmetic treatments currently available, acne scarring is far from a death sentence for self-esteem. However, while there are many procedures to choose from that can relieve scarring, they often require numerous sessions to achieve any results. Fortunately, medical aesthetics offers an effective means of non-surgical acne scar treatment with dermal fillers. These fillers are now being used to obtain quick and long-lasting results that allow these individuals to feel attractive and self-confident in their own skin once more.

Dermal Fillers show extremely favourable results in improving the appearance of acne scars and enhancing the texture of the skin by adding structure, volume, and lift to the indented and depressed scars.

Dermal fillers work best on depressed acne or traumatic scars. They are being used to treat a number of different scar types, including Rolling, Hypertrophic, Ice Pick, Boxcar, and Keloid acne scars.

Due to their capacity to fill and rebuild, medium—to high-viscosity hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are often used in acne scar revision.

Our dermal filler training emphasises taking a holistic view of the treatment, including patient expectations, and ensuring safety and optimum results.

BENEFITS OF TRAINING ON ACNE SCAR REVISION

While there are lots of beauty creams and lotions in the market for acne scarring, acne scar revision using dermal fillers offers patients a more cost-effective,  non-surgical alternative with little or no downtime and longer-lasting results.

In addition, dermal fillers help break down scar tissue and stimulate the production of collagen.

This helps to reduce the overall appearance of the scars over time, requiring fewer top-up treatments.

This makes it a preferred option for acne scar treatment, as the demand for this procedure remains on the rise. More medical professionals are now choosing to add this procedure to their list of treatment services.

Just like all other dermal filler treatments, clients will need to top up after about 9 -12 months, depending on the product, bringing more revenue to the aesthetic practitioner who masters this procedure.
