How long does it take to recover from laser acne scars?

Having acne scars on the face is a very annoying thing. If the acne scars are too deep, it will affect the beauty of the face. There are many ways to remove acne scars. In addition to relying on skin care products to remove acne scars, medical beauty treatments are also very popular.

The basic recovery period of laser acne scar removal is about 10-14 days, and it takes 3 months to fully recover. The reason why it takes 3 months to fully recover from laser acne scar removal is mainly because the effective process of laser acne scar removal is to first destroy the skin at the acne scar site, allowing the skin to regenerate collagen to remove the acne scar. Therefore, it takes a certain amount of time to recover after laser acne scar removal.

Day 1 of recovery after laser acne treatment

I was scared when I saw myself in the mirror when I woke up in the morning. My whole face looked like a car accident scene. I didn't dare to go out and see people. The dark color is due to erbium laser peak reduction and valley filling, and the large area is plasma treatment. I mainly sprayed elf growth factor in the past two days to help the skin recover.

Day 3 of recovery after laser acne treatment

The hospital nurse repeatedly told me to apply facial masks more often (the mask must be a medical-grade sterile repair mask), because the skin will be super dry during the ablative laser treatment, so wet compresses after the operation can help relieve inflammation.

Day 4 of recovery after laser acne treatment

Today, scabs started to fall off my face. When I applied the facial mask, the scabs softened. It was so refreshing to see them as I took off the mask.

Day 5 of recovery after laser acne treatment

On the fifth day of laser acne scar removal, the scabs have all fallen off. The skin is slowly repairing, and the most important thing at this time is sun protection! Sun protection! Sun protection! Important things should be said three times~ Be sure to apply sunscreen when going out, take a parasol, and never expose yourself to the sun! The most feared thing after laser treatment is that ultraviolet rays will cause pigmentation, which will ruin all the previous efforts. Three parts of technology and seven parts of maintenance. You must strictly follow the doctor's instructions after the operation, and you can't save on repair products. After four fractional laser treatments, the acne pits and acne scars on my face have improved by 70%. You can really see the effect of ablative fractional laser treatment~ Although the whole process is painful, I think it is worth it to exchange temporary pain for permanent beauty. I hope that girls who have the same troubles as me will not be discouraged. Now medical technology is developing rapidly, and many facial skin problems can actually be solved.

Red and blue light acne treatment is based on the blue light acting on the superficial layer of the skin, quickly killing Propionibacterium acnes and playing an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory role. It can also effectively inhibit the secretion of sebaceous gland oil and prevent the recurrence of acne; while red light can pass through the superficial tissue of the skin and act on the deep fiber cells, prompting the cells to secrete collagen and accelerate the regeneration of new skin, shorten the recovery period, reduce the formation of acne (acne) scars, and play a role in removing acne marks and repairing acne scars. The doctor introduced that the red and blue light therapy device uses high-purity, high-power density red and blue light to irradiate the skin, which can change the skin tissue structure, kill acne bacteria, and provide a suitable environment for new cells. It also enhances the production of new collagen elastin and collagen, promotes cell growth, and can repair inflammatory acne. For severe acne, photodynamic therapy is more effective if combined with photosensitizers.

For people with non-photosensitive skin and no other infections or allergies, laser acne treatment will not have obvious side effects. Of course, the absence of side effects must be based on the premise that the laser acne treatment is performed by a professional doctor in a regular hospital.
