Acne Scar Removal Treatments In Chennai
Here are some of the safe and effective advanced procedures dermatologists at Oliva perform.
- Pixel Laser Resurfacing: At Oliva, treatment for acne scars is powered by the most advanced laser technology that has the safest wavelength for coloured Indian skin. Our dermatologists treat different types of scars with the use of fractionated Erbium YAG laser. Although they create controlled micro-injuries with utmost precision to leave behind a healthy rim of skin, they ensure that healing happens with minimal downtime. The subsequent collagen production replaces the damaged tissue and reduces the appearance of scars and at times even alleviates them to a great extent! This non-invasive and chemical-free treatment option involves minimal risk and downtime to deliver optimal results.
- TCA Cross: Doctors at Oliva, use Trichloroacetic acid solution for chemical reconstruction of scarred skin. Unlike peel treatments at parlours, this advanced aesthetic procedure involves the focal application of a plant-based extract to treat ice pick scars. The induced collagen production leads to a visible improvement in the ice pick scars as well as the texture of the skin.
- Microneedling Radio Frequency: This cutting-edge skin resurfacing technology is a popular treatment option for reducing rolling scars as it involves no downtime. The use of radio frequency energy offers multiple benefits as it boosts both the collagen and elastin levels in the skin. Besides being a safe and effective acne scar removal treatment, it improves the firmness of the skin and adds to its youthful appeal and radiance without any recovery time.
- Subcision: Our expert dermatologists at Oliva specialise in performing this minimally invasive treatment to decrease the depth of scars minus injuries and infections. In a sterile environment, they use microneedles to release the adhesions of the tethered scars to stimulate a healing response in the sub-layers of skin. Our doctors follow stringent protocols to ensure that our advanced dermatological procedures are safe, pain-free and effective.
- Laser Toning: Oliva takes pride in the fact that the latest USFDA approved laser technology is available at all our state-of-the-art clinics. Our doctors use Q switched Nd:YAG laser for effective reduction of flat, red and pigmented acne scars.
