Frequently Asked Questions

  • + What is optimised light photo-rejuvenation technology?

    Lasers specifically use light photo-rejuvenation technology, able to deliver pulses of intense light to regions of unwanted pigmented areas. If presented with an Asian patient who is suffering from extreme scarring from acne, then ICON can trigger the natural immune response. Over several treatments, we see substantial benefits to the patient with a generation of new healthy cells able to replace older cells.

  • + Is laser therapy the best option for acne scarring on Asian skin?

    Options exist for acne such as creams containing corticosteroids, salicylic acid, azelaic acid and antibiotics. However, with regards to acne scarring, it becomes far more challenging to find the best treatment avenue. Yet, laser therapies have proven themselves to be reasonably competent, as proven within the clinical literature. At Juvea, we specialise in modifying our treatment style for the patient. As Asian skin tends to be more prone to scaring, we tend to believe that multiple treatments work best by triggering the patient’s immune system into activity.

  • + How long until I see results for my skin?

    Two to four weeks, varying between individuals since scarring can be more or less pronounced. With regards to Asian skin, it will defiantly take several weeks, since scarring tends to be more noticeable compared to Caucasian skin.

  • + Am I the right candidate for acne scar removal treatment?

    People are suitable, with acne-prone skin we expect it to be oilier, with excess sebum clogging the pores. The great thing about the ICON laser is its dual approach in targeting scarring by using fractional ablative lasers in conjunction with IPL. Overall this enhances the effectivity of the treatment and over time stimulates the body’s natural immune response.

  • + How are the acne scars formed?

    If you are prone to picking whiteheads or blackheads, then the acne scarring is usually the result in severe cases. However, another reason is that the skin’s natural healing process is not as effective as it should be, resulting in frequent scarring. Additionally, if there is an abnormal production of collagen, then this increases the chances of scarring.

  • + Are ICON treatments harmful?

    If you are highly sensitive to pain, then we can administer topical anaesthetic at least thirty minutes before the laser treatment. However, our ICON lasers are ultra-modern and use cooling technology to ease your comfort.

  • + I have some burn scars, are laser therapies useful for burns?

    You have options of using surgical technology for treating burns; nowadays, an alternative is using laser technologies. Similar to the treatment of scarring, patients with injuries can benefit from upregulation of healthy cells.

  • + What are other types of scars other than acne ones treated with laser therapies?

    Therapies are highly effective for a variety of different scars, for example, burns or hyperpigmentation.

  • + How many sessions will I need to remove the scar altogether?

    It's essential to bear in mind that your scar might not remove entirely. It is dependent on the affliction of a degree of scarring — however, people to do gain a significant improvement after several treatments.

  • + How does the ICON laser promote healthy skin rejuvenation?

    Using laser energy to penetrate the flesh, this triggers the natural healing process as dead cells are replaced with healthy ones.
