Treating Acne Scars

What do you suppose happens when hydroxy acids merge with strong remodeling copper peptides? The powerful duo creates a potent synergy to eradicate scars and blemishes with a surprising intensity. Compared to conventional methods for scar reduction which are costly, painful and only marginally effective, this method costs little and is painless.

Hydroxy acids, such as salicylic and glycolic acid, are widely used to exfoliate and peel skin. These acids remove dead cells while loosening and dissolving lesions such as acne scars, keloid scars, surgical scars, burn scars, moles, skin tags, stretch marks, age spots, and sun damage marks.

Here is the beauty of hydroxy acid actions: your normal healthy skin resists these acids without any harm. However, most lesions, which have less structural integrity, are more easily broken down by hydroxy acids. The secret is to apply light acids over periods of a month or longer to slowly dissolve most lesions. This gentle approach is a pain free modification of normal skin peel techniques where strong and often harsh hydroxy acids (or other peeling agents such as TCA or phenol) are applied. These methods may work well under perfect circumstances. However, harsh hydroxy acids can inflame, especially when the skin does not regenerate or fully heal. When the dermis cannot rebuild, the peeling agent may cause scarring or inflammation.

When you use strong skin remodeling copper peptides (SRCPs) following the hydroxy acids, the peptides create an environment to regenerate normal healthy skin. So, as repeated applications of hydroxy acid dissolve away blemishes, SRCPs aid to rebuild a smooth and healthy complexion. By repeating this process once or twice daily, you should observe a noticeable improvement within a month.

Abrade Away those Acne Scars

You can scrape away unsightly scars with microdermabrasion and subcision (needling) that gently abrade the skin. These methods speed scar reduction in concert with SRCPs and hydroxy acids. When old scars grow course and tough, abrasive techniques allow hydroxy acids to dissolve the lesions. Microdermabrasion is most effective for elevated or flat scars. Subcision, used by estheticians, works better for depressed or pitted acne scars. The needling breaks up the deeply buried tissue. So go ahead - abrade those scars away to reveal a radiant complexion. See Skin Abrasion Techniques.
