Posted October 20th, 2011 in Acne Treatment, Anti-Aging, Patient Stories, Skin Rejuvenation

This Bellevue, 98007 man was suffering from skin problems. As a teenager, he had had terrible acne. Now, in his forties, the acne scars were becoming more obvious on his aging skin. On top of that, he was developing a lot of wrinkles. He was beginning to feel old every time he looked in the mirror. Determined to do something about it, he contacted Island Dermatology for acne scar removal and wrinkle removal.

The Mercer Island dermatologist had an answer for him. He recommended the combination of a MicroLaser Peel and a Profractional using the Profractional Sciton Laser. The course of treatment would be carefully customized to the patient’s specific needs. The depth of the Profractional Sciton Laser could be adjusted to deal with each of the acne scars and wrinkles that he wanted to be rid of. It would use broadband light to soften the scar tissue and tighten the skin. Then the MicroLaser Peel would finish things off by treating the skin surface. The dermatologist assured him that his problems could be managed effectively.

In fact, only one treatment was enough to render the acne scars completely invisible and improve the texture and tone of his skin. With minimal recovery time, the full course would also take care of the wrinkles, but they were already significantly reduced. The patient was extremely happy with his dermatology results. He looked a lot younger and his growing embarrassment at going out in public wearing that face faded away.

His story proves that even stubborn skin problems and ones that a person has had his or her entire life can be easily dealt with by use of the right dermatology treatment. A Profractional using the Profractional Sciton Laser is the perfect treatment for acne scars, whether recent or old.
