About 1 in 5 people have acne scars on their face, chest, or back. While acne scars affect so many people, the solutions for active acne far outweigh the solutions to reduce scarring.
At Harbour Direct Primary Care, we offer options for acne scar treatment in Jamestown, RI, because we understand that acne scars can inhibit your confidence just as much as active acne can.
RF Microneedling
We use Exion RF microneedling to treat acne scars, burn scars, and more. During an RF microneedling treatment, the applicator creates “micro-channels” within the skin, stimulating your body’s natural healing response. Simultaneously, it administers heat into these microchannels to stimulate this healing response deeper within your skin.
This increases your body’s natural production of collagen and elastin, proteins that help keep your muscles, organs, and skin strong and flexible. When you get injured, these proteins help your skin heal smoother and tighter than it was before.
Clear RF
The revolutionary new Clear RF treatment uses radiofrequency to heat the skin and increase collagen and elastin production. The device delivers heat into your epidermis using small pins, pushing the heat further into your skin. This gently exfoliates your skin, removing dead and damaged cells to create a smoother complexion.
Botox
Many people think Botox can only correct wrinkles, but this injectable can actually help with acne scars, too. Botox relaxes targeted muscles, often those that cause wrinkles, but Botox can also relax the muscles around an acne scar, reducing the tension that causes skin puckering.
However, this is a temporary solution compared to our other scar treatment options, since Botox wears off. To maintain your results, you’ll need to schedule regular injection appointments.
