Acne
can
cause
long
term
physical
and
emotional
scarring
.
Acne
is a
"condition"
of
the
skin
and
is
believed
to
be
caused
by a
mix
of
genetic,
hormonal
and
environmental
factors.
The
Pixel™
laser
provides
a
safe
and
effective
non
ablative
method
for
improving
flat
thin
acne
scars,
as
well
as
deeper
pitted
acne
scars.
The
Pixel™
delivers
laser
energy
at
wavelengths
that
are
absorbed
by
the
water
in
the
skin’s
upper
dermal
layer.
Converted
into
heat,
the
absorbed
energy
mildly
damages
the
upper
dermis
tissue
and
collagen.
In a
natural
process,
the
skin
regenerates
the
partially
damaged
collagen,
resulting
in
remodeling.
This
means
a
clinical
improvement
to
acne
scars.
What
to
Expect?
The
first
day
you
will
look
and
feel
as
if
you
have
a
bad
sunburn.
You
may
experience
moderate
swelling
for
24
to
48
hours.
Over
the
next
few
days
the
epidermis
will
flake
off
and
reveal
smoother
looking
new
skin
with
a
noticeable
improvement
to
acne
scarring.
