Treatment for Acne Scars in Seoul, Korea - What are my options?

Acne is already a big pain-in-the-butt in itself, but what's even more annoying is when they leave nasty marks and scars on your face, as if to leave a haunting reminder. Regardless of shape and size, whether they are pitted scars, raised scars, or pigmentation, acne scars should and can be treated.
Unfortunately, there is no such thing as 100% removal, no matter how good the treatment is. However, it is still very possible to make a ton of improvement and leave your face clearer and smoother than before.

Here are some treatments offered at Renewme Skin Clinic. Photos are not available for all treatments but I've done my best to provide as much as possible. All photos are of actual patients that received treatment at Renewme Skin Clinic.

1. MOSAIC LASER
This is a called fractional laser treatment, also known as fraxel. Simply put, what this laser does is artificially destroy old cells to stimulate collagen regrowth. Our body works in mysterious ways - when the skin is damaged, it will start working to heal itself. Mosaic uses this wondrous property of the skin by triggering this healing reaction in the skin to fill in those scars. Here are some before and after photos:





You can see the results are pretty good with steady treatment sessions!

Mosaic is also effective in contracting pores:

 


2. EXCEL-V LASER
This is one of our most advanced equipment, and not easily available at many other dermatology clinics here in Korea. Operated in three different modes, Excel-V is mostly used for treating vascular conditions, like redness or rosacea. One of its modes is effective on scars too - the different modes of this laser enable doctors to treat a wider range of skin conditions so you can have better skin in more ways than one. 



The lighting is different so the photos may not seem so accurate (this is a selfie and not taken professionally), but you can still spot the veins that are present in the first photo and gone in the next.


3. INNOFILL
INNOfill is a special injection in which a special patented needle emits radio-frequency to stimulate collagen and cell growth. It's more like an upgraded version of subcision; INNOfill breaks off the tangle tissues that cause pitted scars, as well as uses RF to regenerate skin. This fills up and treats scars, as well as improve elasticity. Effects are best when paired with the Mosaic laser.











4. SPECTRA-XT LASER
This laser is already well established in the field as an effective remover of moles, birthmarks, and freckles. Now, paired with a new hand-piece, dermatologists can also treat vascular conditions (redness); treatment is called Gold Laser Toning.

5. IPL
Standing for Intense Pulsed Light, IPL uses several wavelengths to treat a variety of conditions, from pigmentation to hair removal and just overall skin regeneration. The procedure is painless with no downtime, so you can go about your schedule as usual.




6. DOT PEELING (TCA CROSS PEEL)
A solution called TCA (tri-chloroacetic acid) is injected into the base of the scars to induce a partial chemical peeling. This stimulates skin regrowth to fill in the scars.

Paired with regular acne treatment, such as acne scaling, peeling, sebum extraction, and vitamin injections, your skin really has a chance to improve and become clearer! The most important to remember, though, is that continuous treatment is the key to an effective recovery. Most treatments for scars are taken over the course of several weeks/months. As long as you can commit the time and effort, acne scars can definitely be treated.

So if you happen to be in Seoul and need a good dermatologist to remove those scars...
We are always available. ;)
