Acne Scar Treatment
Acne Scar Removal with Opus Plasma at Faith Family Health Care
Acne is a common skin condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, leading to the formation of pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. While acne can be frustrating to deal with, it's even more distressing when it leaves behind scars.
At Faith Family Health Care, we offer an effective solution for acne scar removal - Opus Plasma. This revolutionary treatment uses plasma energy to stimulate collagen production and rejuvenate the skin.
What is Opus Plasma and How Does it Work?
Opus Plasma is a non-invasive procedure that utilizes plasma energy to resurface the skin and reduce the appearance of acne scars. The device creates microchannels in the skin, which triggers the body's healing response and stimulates collagen production. This results in smoother, tighter, and more youthful-looking skin.
During the treatment, a numbing cream is applied to the skin to minimize any discomfort. The Opus Plasma handpiece is then moved over the treatment area, delivering targeted bursts of plasma energy. The procedure typically takes about 30-45 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
Opus Plasma is safe for all skin types and can be used on various areas of the face and body affected by acne scars.
What Causes Acne?
Acne is caused by a combination of factors, including hormonal changes, excess oil production, bacteria, and inflammation. Genetics can also play a role in developing acne.
Some common triggers for acne breakouts include:
- Hormonal fluctuations during puberty, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or menopause
- Using certain skincare or makeup products that clog pores
- Stress and lack of sleep
- Poor diet high in processed foods and sugar
