Hello, this is Dr. Hyunki Cho from Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic Busan branch.
Acne scars refer to marks left on the skin due to severe acne or improper management.
When scars form, the skin surface becomes uneven, and they can appear in various shapes.
Acne scars are not just an aesthetic issue but can also affect skin health, so proper treatment is necessary.
Today, we will learn about the types of acne scars, their characteristics,
and an effective treatment method called Coratherapy.
If you are struggling with acne scars, please read until the end!
Types of Acne Scars
Acne scars can be broadly classified into three types.
Understanding their characteristics can help in choosing the appropriate treatment method.
1. Boxcar Type
Boxcar scars have a square shape with distinct and firm edges.
Depending on the depth of the scar, the skin may appear sunken, making the overall skin texture uneven.
Boxcar scars are relatively easier to treat, but consistent care and appropriate treatment are necessary.
2. Rolling Type
Rolling scars are characterized by an uneven skin surface.
They are especially noticeable under lighting, causing significant stress for many individuals.
These scars have indistinct edges and form gentle curves.
Although relatively shallow, a delicate approach is required for treatment.
3. Icepick Type
Icepick scars are deep and narrow, resembling marks made by an ice pick.
This type of scar penetrates deep into the skin, so it may take some time to see treatment effects.
However, with consistent treatment, gradual improvement is possible.
Treating acne scars requires a tailored approach based on the type of scar.
Coratherapy is particularly effective for boxcar and rolling scars,
and with consistent sessions, it can also improve icepick scars.
So, what is Coratherapy?
What is Coratherapy?
One of the effective methods for treating acne scars is Coratherapy.
Coratherapy is a Korean medicine treatment that promotes skin regeneration to repair damaged skin tissue.
By applying micro-needle stimulation to the damaged skin layer, Coratherapy induces skin regeneration.
It stimulates the production of collagen and elastin within the skin, filling the scarred areas and restoring elasticity.
Additionally, as treatment can be customized based on the shape and depth of the scars,
Coratherapy not only improves scarred areas but also activates the skin regeneration process,
offering the advantage of restoring overall skin health.
Consistency is Key in Acne Scar Treatment.
Acne scars are difficult to completely eliminate in a short period, so consistent treatment and care are essential.
While Coratherapy can show effects even after a single session,
the required number of treatments and duration may vary depending on the individual’s skin condition and the depth of the scars.
Therefore, it is important to consult with a professional to create a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic’s Coratherapy effectively improves acne scars and regenerates healthy skin.
If you are struggling with scars, don’t worry alone and consult a professional.
