Hello, this is Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic, starting Coratherapy to erase scars.
Shingles, which occurs when immunity drops.
Shingles often leaves severe scars along with extreme pain,
causing a lot of stress even after treating the condition.
So why does shingles occur, and
how can deeply indented scars from shingles be treated?
We would like to discuss this in this post.

Why does shingles occur?

Shingles is a disease caused by the Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV),
which reactivates after remaining dormant in our body’s nerve ganglia following chickenpox in childhood.
It usually occurs when immunity weakens, with stress, overwork, chronic illnesses, cancer treatments, and aging being major causes.
It is particularly common in individuals over 50 or those with weakened immune systems.
Symptoms of shingles include headaches, fever,
and severe pain accompanied by red, band-shaped rashes and blisters.
If these blisters are improperly handled or burst during recovery, they can leave deep scars.
Shingles scars left in this way are often irregularly shaped and deep.
This means the dermis layer of the skin is completely lost,
and medical approaches to replenish the dermis are essential for scar treatment.

At Rodam, which has been treating scars for 20 years,
we recommend Coratherapy for treating indented shingles scars.
So, what is Coratherapy, and why is it effective for treating shingles scars?

As mentioned above, indented shingles scars involve the loss of the dermis layer,
making its recovery essential.
Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic’s Coratherapy treatment uses specially designed needles
to stimulate the skin, break adhesions, and promote collagen production.
This allows stimulation to penetrate deep into the skin,
enabling fundamental skin recovery.
Additionally, since the treatment relies on the skin’s regenerative power rather than external substances,
it can be performed without side effects.
Because the skin regenerates itself, the treated areas do not sink again.

As shown in the photos above, even severe shingles scars can be treated.
Of course, the patient above did not see all scars disappear after just six treatments.
The lower part of the scar still has indentations, so additional procedures are planned.
However, when comparing the results after three treatments,
the deep scar surfaces have risen, and most scars blend well with the surrounding skin
without significant contrast.

Of course, treatment results may vary from person to person,
and redness may occur during Coratherapy.
Nevertheless, the reason we recommend Coratherapy for indented scars
is because of results like these.
