Laser acne removal

We all know that when people enter puberty, the sex hormones in the body will rise rapidly, which is particularly prone to endocrine disorders. After endocrine disorders, it is particularly easy to develop pimples such as acne. After developing pimples, even if you don’t pick them with your hands, it is easy to leave some scars on your face. So people will use laser acne removal to remove acne. So what are the disadvantages of this method?

Acne is similar to pimples, but the difference is that it does not only appear during adolescence, but occurs in all age groups, especially young people. Working overtime, staying up late and working under high pressure are important causes of acne. The occurrence of acne can easily leave "marks", so many people hope to use laser to remove acne without leaving any marks. However, the side effects of laser acne removal cannot be ignored.

Side effects of laser acne treatment

① Local swelling: All laser treatments will cause mild to moderate local swelling, which is the heaviest 2-3 days after surgery and gradually subsides in 5-7 days.

②Pigmentation: Most cases will initially show hypopigmentation after treatment, but pigmentation may appear soon. Generally, no treatment is required, and pigmentation will disappear on its own within 2-4 months.

③Itching: rare. It may mean the healing of the wound, but you should also be alert to the possibility of infection.

④ Infection: If the wound surface is ruptured due to scratching or contaminated by water, erythema and exudate may appear. Once infection occurs, seek medical attention as soon as possible to promote rapid healing of the wound, but superficial scars may remain after healing.

⑤Scar formation: Due to the high accuracy of laser, the size and depth of treatment can be strictly controlled, and generally no scars will be left after the operation. However, a few cases may form residual depressed scars or stimulate the formation of hypertrophic scars. Once a scar is formed, medical treatment should be sought as soon as possible to reduce the severity of the scar.
