SCARRING
Restore Your Skin. Reclaim Your Confidence!
Understanding scarring
Scars are a natural part of the body's healing process, but they can sometimes leave lasting marks that affect your confidence. Whether from acne, surgery, trauma or an injury, scars can vary in size, shape and appearance.
That doesn’t mean they can’t sometimes be unsightly. It’s very common for people to feel self-conscious about their scars, particularly those found on the face.
Permanent scarring is commonly caused by interference during the healing process. Picking or irritating wounds or acne can aggravate the skin further leading to increased tissue damage.
At Jessence Aesthetics, we offer evidence based treatments designed to minimize scarring, smooth skin texture and boost your skin's natural healing.
Microneedling
Scars are essentially areas where the skin has repaired itself following trauma, such as those caused by acne, surgery, or injuries.
In this repair process, collagen production can become dysregulated, leading to either raised or pitted marks. Microneedling addresses scars through the following mechanisms:
1. Breaking down old tissue: The tiny needles penetrate the skin, disrupting scar tissue and encouraging the body to replace it with healthier skin cells.
2. Stimulating new collagen production: The process promotes collagen and elastin synthesis, which helps to fill in indentations left by pitted scars.
3. Improving skin texture and tone: Beyond reducing the visibility of scars, microneedling enhances overall skin texture and tone, contributing to a more uniform and refined appearance.
Research has consistently reported significant clinical improvement in notoriously hard-to-treat atrophic acne scars after a series of regular microneedling sessions.
These minimally invasive treatments have boosted skin regeneration and collagen remodelling, leading to visible improvements in skin appearance.
Polynucleotides
Scar tissue forms when skin repairs itself after injury - but often, the repair is rushed leaving behind collagen that is disorganised and uneven.
Polynucleotides address this by:
- Activating regenerative pathways
- Encouraging a more natural, oragnised collagen structure
- Restoing healthier skin architecture
- Fading Pigmentation and improving texture over time.
