Post-acne correction methods: redermalization

Logo

While classical dermatology is still the best at treating acne, aesthetic medicine techniques have proven themselves excellently in correcting post-acne – in particular, redermalization, which will be discussed below.

Acne treatment is a very complex issue that concerns primarily dermatologists. Often, the acne treatment process takes a long time, and very often, unfortunately, after the end of taking various medications, a number of changes remain on the patient's skin, which are collectively called post-acne.

Post-acne is a term that includes a set of skin changes that remain after acne treatment:

  • persistently dilated mouths of the excretory ducts of the sebaceous glands (dilated pores);
  • post-inflammatory hyper- and depigmentation;
  • spots of congestive hyperemia;
  • telangiectasias (dilated capillaries);
  • scars (atrophic, hypertrophic, keloid).

The degree of severity of post-acne is influenced by factors such as the duration of the disease, the severity, the patient's age, self-medication, and the wrong tactics of the cosmetologist's procedures (frequent and harsh mechanical cleansing of the facial skin).
