About Acne & Acne Scars

Acne and acne scars can lead to lifelong textural irregularities on the skin. You may suffer from acne for numerous reasons, such as excess sebum production, clogged pores, enlarged pores, excess dead skin cells, and the actions of acne-causing bacteria. Some types of persistent and severe acne breakouts also leave acne scars that make your skin look blemished and marked, which can lead to the loss of confidence and self-esteem. MAEVA Aesthetics performs a thorough facial assessment, identifies the root cause of your acne, and curates a personalized treatment plan for acne and acne scars.

Face Reality Skincare

Face Reality Skincare is a range of highly effective acne skincare products made of a water-based gel with 10% benzoyl peroxide, which penetrates the pores of your skin to kill unwanted p.acnes bacteria, unclog the pores, and prevent your pores from clogging. The medical provider will offer the ideal concentration of acne products to improve your skin quality and prevent acne — the results are usually seen within 3 to 4 months.

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are unique skincare formulations that exfoliate the uppermost layers of your skin, which reveals smoother, more even-textured, and youthful skin underneath. Chemical peels slough away the dead skin cells and debris, which opens up the pores and minimizes the risk of acne breakouts. Furthermore, some chemical peels also kill the p.acnes bacteria and stimulate natural collagen production, which reverses the damage caused by acne.

Microneedling

Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation technique suitable for patients who have acne breakouts under control. Microneedling involves using a specialized device to make thousands of micro-channels on the skin’s surface, which triggers the body’s innate healing processes. Your body responds to the micro-injuries by stimulating collagen production, making your facial skin look fuller, smoother, and more voluminous. Microneedling can reduce the prominence of your acne scarring over time.

Microneedling with PRF

PRF can catalyze the results of microneedling, making your facial skin look smoother and more youthful even faster. Platelet-rich plasmas (PRP) contain growth factors, the components responsible for most of the healing processes within your body. The growth factors stimulate collagen production, blood clotting, blood vessel formation, and skin cell regeneration. When applied to the facial skin after microneedling, PRP reverses the damage caused by acne, making your skin look smoother and more even-textured.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are cosmetic injections that add volume underneath skin tissues. The medical provider injects the chosen dermal filler underneath the facial tissues, usually around the acne scars, thereby filling out the scars and depressions. Some dermal fillers provide instant (but temporary) results, whereas others provide gradual but long-lasting results by stimulating collagen production. The medical provider will select the ideal dermal fillers for your specific needs.
