Laser facial resurfacing in Lviv (fractional post-acne resurfacing)

Post-acne scars are most often a consequence of severe acne and occur in about 30% of people who have had acne. The basis of this phenomenon is that the body replaces the destroyed acne areas of the skin with connective tissue, which is harder than the surrounding area. Such scars do not disappear on their own and require special therapy.

An innovative service will come to the rescue – laser resurfacing of the face in Lviv, which involves the use of the ResurFX ™ device. Thanks to this method, not only the skin relief is evened out, but also the number of age spots is reduced and fine wrinkles on the face are eliminated. The main principle of action is the stimulation of natural collagen production. It is collagen that contributes to the complete renewal of the skin, increasing skin elasticity and correcting scars after acne.

It is worth noting that the ResurFX ™ device has a state-of-the-art scanner, so the device’s action is directed at damaged, unhealthy cells. And skin regeneration occurs precisely thanks to healthy cells. Fractional scar resurfacing is performed both locally and on the entire face. Usually, several procedures are required for the desired result.
