Acne scars can be a frustrating and difficult problem to deal with. They can affect your self-confidence and make it difficult to feel comfortable in your own skin. Fortunately, there are a variety of treatments available that can help you to reduce your acne scars. One of the most effective treatments available today and one of my personal favorites is the combination of radiofrequency (RF) microneedling and hyperdilute Radiesse. 

RF Microneedling 

RF microneedling, like Secret RF, is a non-invasive, safe and effective treatment for acne scars. It involves the use of a device that combines the power of RF energy and microneedling. The device creates tiny punctures on the skin's surface that trigger the body's natural healing process. This process results in new collagen and elastin production, which helps improve acne scars. 

The RF energy also delivers heat to the deeper layers of the skin, which helps to stimulate the production of more collagen and elastin. This heat energy also helps destroy any remaining acne-causing bacteria under the skin's surface. As a result, RF microneedling is not only effective at reducing existing acne scars, but can also help to prevent future acne breakouts. 

Unlike other treatments, RF microneedling is suitable for all skin types and colors. This is because it does not rely on light or laser energy to stimulate the skin's healing process. It is also a quick and easy treatment that can be performed in as little as 30 minutes. 

Hyperdilute Radiesse 

Hyperdilute Radiesse is a dermal filler that is used to treat a variety of skin concerns, including acne scars. The treatment involves injecting the filler into the skin, where it works to smooth out the appearance of scars and give the skin a more youthful and refreshed appearance. 

One of the key benefits of hyperdilute Radiesse is its effectiveness at treating even deep and stubborn acne scars. This is due to the unique formulation of the filler, which contains calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres that are suspended in a gel. When injected into the skin, the microspheres work to stimulate collagen production, which helps to fill in the depressed areas of the scar and give the skin a smoother appearance. 

Another benefit of hyperdilute Radiesse is that it is a minimally invasive treatment that requires little to no downtime.

The Power Duo 

So, we know both treatments are phenomenal on their own, however when used together they are a powerhouse of a combination against acne scars. 

• RF microneedling stimulates collagen deep within the dermis  
• Hyperdilute Radiesse also stimulates collagen, but it is used more superficially to fill in the scar itself and improve the texture of the skin 

This combination treatment is effective at reducing the appearance of scars, improving skin texture and tone, and producing overall rejuvenating effects on the skin. 

Another benefit of this power duo is that they are both minimally invasive, safe and effective treatments and most patients can return to their daily activities almost immediately after the procedure. 

Conclusion 

In conclusion, RF microneedling and hyperdilute Radiesse are the ultimate solution for acne scars. These two treatments together can produce extraordinary results, leaving your skin smoother, firmer and more youthful-looking.
