Cosmetology vs. Postacne: clean and healthy skin from iO Clinic doctors

Aesthetic appearance and skin health are the unique strengths of your beauty.
Post-acne treatment with ASCLEPION MCL31 laser resurfacing, Morpheus8 RF lifting, and Lumecca IPL therapyrepresents modern and effective hardware-based techniques that help improve skin texture, smooth out scarring, and reduce pigmentation. Here’s how these procedures work and why they are effective in combating post-acne conditions.

Morpheus8 RF Lifting – Smoothing Skin Texture After Acne

RF lifting is a procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin. This stimulation triggers collagen and elastin production, helping to smooth acne scars, improve skin texture, and reduce fine lines.

Benefits of Morpheus8 RF Lifting:

• Painless: The procedure is comfortable and does not require anesthesia.
• Safe: Radiofrequency lifting does not damage the surface of the skin, minimizing the risk of complications.
• Regenerative: Deep heating promotes cellular regeneration, reducing the appearance of scars.

Number of sessions:
A course of 3 sessions spaced 1 month apart is typically recommended for visible results.

Lumecca IPL Therapy – Even Skin Tone and Post-Acne Spot Reduction

IPL therapy (Intense Pulsed Light) with Lumecca uses high-intensity light pulses to enhance skin condition. Lumecca IPL offers greater efficiency and safety compared to other IPL devices. The light targets pigment and vascular irregularities, evening out skin tone and reducing redness left by acne.

Benefits of Lumecca IPL:

• Even skin tone: Helps reduce hyperpigmentation and redness commonly associated with post-acne.
• Safe: Non-invasive with minimal downtime.
• Versatile: Suitable for various skin types and areas of the body.

Number of sessions:
3 to 5 sessions are recommended, spaced 3–4 weeks apart for optimal results.

ASCLEPION MCL31 Laser Resurfacing – Deep Regeneration for Post-Acne Skin

The ASCLEPION MCL31 laser is an erbium laser that selectively targets the superficial layers of the skin, vaporizing them and activating regeneration processes.

Effects include:

• Texture improvement: Reduces the depth of acne scars, making them less noticeable.
• Pigmentation reduction: Effectively addresses hyperpigmentation that often follows inflammation.
• Collagen stimulation: Triggers collagen production, improving skin firmness and elasticity.
• Precision: Allows for highly accurate control of treatment depth, enabling a personalized approach.
• Lower trauma: Compared to other resurfacing methods, the erbium laser affects only the superficial skin layers, reducing the risk of complications and shortening recovery time.
• High effectiveness: Results are often noticeable after the first treatment, though several sessions may be required for optimal results.

Number of sessions:
The number of treatments depends on the skin’s condition and the desired outcome. A session typically lasts 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the area treated. After the procedure, the skin may appear red and sensitive for a few days, it's a normal response.
