Hello!

I’m Kang In-jeong, the chief director of The River Dermatology Clinic.

Have you ever worried about acne scars?

The red marks, depressed pores, and scars left behind after acne has passed

can be an important cause of lowered confidence, going beyond a simple cosmetic issue.

Many people may wonder why marks or scars remain for such a long time after acne.

The answer can be found in structural problems that occur deep within the skin.

Acne Scars: The Cause

Acne scars are not simply a problem limited to the surface of the skin.

Fibrous bands that form after severe inflammation in some acne lesions pull the skin surface downward and create scars.

These fibrous bands occur in the deeper layers of the skin, and it is difficult to improve scars without physically addressing them.

Because the cause of the scar lies not only on the skin surface but also in the deeper layers of the skin,

it is important to understand that complete improvement is difficult without properly resolving this.

The Key to Acne Scar Treatment: Reaching the Deeper Layers

The key to acne scar treatment is reaching the deeper layers of the skin.

To properly treat acne scars, it is not enough to simply treat the skin surface.

At The River Dermatology Clinic, to address the structural problems of acne scars,

we provide a customized approach by combining various treatment methods.

The main procedures used include Secret/Vbeam/Metrisel/CO2 pinhole laser, Juvelook/hyaluronic acid/PDRN injections, dot peel, and subcision.

These procedures are combined according to each scar type and condition to help regenerate and restore the skin.

Collagen Booster Treatment for Scar Improvement

An important point in acne scar treatment is skin regeneration in the scar area.

For this, skin boosters such as Juvelook, PDRN, and hyaluronic acid injections are used to promote collagen formation needed for skin regeneration.

In this process, the amount and method of injection vary depending on the patient’s skin condition and the type of scar, and repeated treatments are necessary to achieve effective results.

The Effect of Combined Treatment

According to many studies,

procedures that combine laser treatment and skin boosters have been reported to improve scars better than standalone treatments.

When multiple treatment methods are combined,

there is a major advantage in that it can improve not only the scar area itself but also the overall skin texture and tone of the face.

Side Effects and Recovery in Scar Treatment

During the scar treatment process, there may be noticeable downtime after the procedure.

Downtime refers to temporary redness of the skin after laser treatment, or needle marks and scabbing that may appear after the procedure.

However, these symptoms mostly recover naturally and can be regarded as part of the treatment.

What matters is that, in order to minimize side effects and achieve the best results,

professional diagnosis and careful planning are necessary.

Why Experience and Know-How Matter

Acne scar treatment is not simply a matter of procedural skill.

It is a matter of experience and know-how.

At The River Dermatology Clinic, we carefully analyze each patient’s skin condition and identify the type and depth of the scars to design the most suitable treatment plan.

In addition, for laser treatment, the energy is precisely adjusted and targeted according to the location and size of the scar.
