Hello, this is Dr. Jeong Dongbin from Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic Gangnam Branch, specializing in scar removal.
Today’s case is about acne scars on the cheeks of a woman in her 20s.
The patient felt the need for image management due to her social life
and decided to visit us upon the recommendation of an acquaintance who had experienced Coratherapy.
When she visited, her skin condition showed
that acne frequently appeared along the jawline,
and her face had a mix of acne scars and marks.
She mentioned that the acne marks were not a big concern,
so we proceeded with Coratherapy focusing on scar treatment.
Before the treatment, scars extended from the front of the cheeks to the area in front of the cheekbones.
The scars were mostly boxcar-shaped.
Upon touch, the skin felt somewhat firm,
and the shape of the scars was clearly defined.
Due to the acne marks beneath the scars,
the scars appeared deeper.
In such cases, we recommend combining Coratherapy
with natural regenerative acupuncture.
However, as the patient only wanted scar improvement,
we proceeded with Coratherapy alone.
Case :: Acne scars on the cheeks
History :: Scars concentrated from the front of the cheeks to the area in front of the cheekbones
Mostly boxcar-shaped scars
Detail :: The treatment initially focused on scars due to significant stress from pitted scars.
From the 4th session, acne mark treatment was also added.
After 4 sessions of Coratherapy
This is the appearance after 4 sessions.
The patient felt significant improvement in the scars in front of the cheekbones,
and from this point, acne mark treatment was also added.
As seen in the photo, there is still some redness as the treatment was recent,
but overall, the boxcar-shaped scars have softened,
and new skin has filled in.
After 8 sessions of Coratherapy
This is the photo after 8 sessions.
The adhered tissues have been released,
resulting in a smoother texture.
At the same time, the acne marks have also improved overall,
and the Coratherapy treatment concluded after 8 sessions.
The patient commented that she had felt discouraged by the scars,
but now she is full of confidence.
Pitted scars can be a significant concern in someone’s life.
Although it requires a certain amount of time to improve them,
consider treatment for a more confident version of yourself.
I hope today’s post has alleviated some concerns about acne scars.
