One of the worst things about acne is the scars it can leave behind. Since acne scars can make some people feel unattractive and embarrassed, many are willing to try anything to make them go away. A very common strategy is to cover the scars with makeup. This “cover-up” strategy can be expensive, ineffective and tedious, however. If you’re hiding behind your acne scars, know there’s hope. There are treatment options available that can eliminate them completely.
Restylane Injections
Restylane is a popular dermal filler that is highly effective in eliminating wrinkles and acne scars. These injections are completely safe, and you will notice results almost immediately. Restylane injections work by adding volume to your face, leaving you with a more youthful and vibrant appearance.
There is little to no discomfort associated with these injections, and you can resume your daily activities right away. The active ingredients in Restylane work together to provide your face with the volume and definition that’s lost due to natural aging or acne-related scarring.
Collagen Injections
Collagen is naturally found in your skin. In fact, it’s what keeps skin healthy and strong. Unfortunately, collagen can break down due to aging and acne-related scarring, among other things. These injections can replace any lost collagen, which can then reduce or even eliminate the signs of aging and acne scars.
Injecting collagen into the areas surrounding your scars can fill in the uneven skin created by that scarring. This produces a smoother and more youthful-looking appearance. Collagen injections are safe procedures that can be completed in about 15 minutes.
If you have acne scars, you may want to try one of the above-mentioned procedures. Come in and talk with us today about whether Restylane or collagen injections may be the perfect solution to your problem.
