Secrets to Choosing the Right Subcision Clinic
The lingering scars and indentations left by acne can be a significant concern for many. Especially, the crater-like scars and ice pick-shaped scars often mar the beauty of one’s skin. The magical treatment for such scars? Enter “Subcision Therapy.”
In a previous article titled “An Overview of Acne Scar Treatment via Subcision,” I introduced the basics of this method, and in “The Benefits of Adding Hyaluronic Acid to Subcision Treatment,” I discussed the profound effects of combining it with hyaluronic acid injections. In this piece, I will delve deeper into the crucial aspects of selecting the most suitable clinic for subcision therapy.
Understanding Subcision and Its Efficacy
Recent studies have unveiled the astonishing benefits of subcision therapy for treating acne scars. However, it’s disheartening that the beauty dermatology realm in Japan has limited information about this technique. A reason behind this might be the surgical elements encompassed within the procedure. This means that for precise and safe implementation, a doctor’s surgical experience becomes paramount.
What Does ‘Surgical Elements’ Mean?
During treatment, the skin’s surface is separated from the underlying tissue using a special needle. This technique mirrors the dissection processes in surgeries, making a doctor’s surgical experience an indispensable factor for the success of the treatment. (On a side note, the author of this article is a certified surgeon.)
The Magic of Hyaluronic Acid
After meticulously separating the scar tissue, hyaluronic acid is injected. This acid not only ensures that the scar doesn’t reform but also beautifully corrects the sunken parts. Over the span of 6 to 12 months, the body will gradually absorb the hyaluronic acid. During this period, the formation of connective tissue around the skin ensures the continued enhancement of its appearance.
However, caution is advised during hyaluronic acid injections. If the initial separation is not done adequately, injecting the acid becomes challenging. The hardened scar tissue, unlike the usual supple subdermal tissue, resists the hyaluronic acid. If the scar tissue is extremely tough, the acid may not get injected at all and might leak out of the needle’s puncture. In the past, treatments solely based on hyaluronic acid injections for acne scars were tried. However, due to the aforementioned challenges, the combination of subcision and hyaluronic acid injection has become the standard approach.
Key Points in Choosing a Clinic
While technique plays a role, the quantity and quality of the hyaluronic acid used are also pivotal for the treatment’s success. Hence, selecting the right clinic becomes crucial. Opting for a clinic with extensive experience in subcision therapy and staffed with physicians with a surgical background ensures you get the most effective treatment.
In Conclusion
Treating acne scars requires more than just cosmetic expertise; it demands specialized skills and knowledge. The combination of subcision therapy and hyaluronic acid injections stands at the forefront of this field. When choosing a clinic, exercise due diligence to ensure you receive optimal treatment and reclaim your flawless skin.
