Sylfirm X Acne Scar Treatment

The Sylfirm X is a next generation RF micro needling system and this modality is ideal for treating acne scars. Treatment is highly customizable. Heat energy forms inside the scar at the ends of tiny gold electrodes. Fibrous scar tissue is destroyed and simultaneously, new, healthy tissue is formed. Overall skin rejuvenation is an additional positive outcome from this treatment. Scar revision treatments are customized to address your scar’s unique attributes.

There is moderate downtime with this treatment. Redness and swelling can persist for 2-5 days depending on the skin type. Safe for all skin types.

Compared to laser, RF micro needling offers an improved patient experience. Micro needles spare the epidermis unnecessary treatment and deliver therapeutic heat-energy deeper in the dermis where collagen is produced. More therapy where you need it and none where you don’t.

Sylfirm X acne scar treatments are about 30-45 minutes and topical numbing cream is applied up to one hour prior.

Noticeable results with each session. A series of treatments may be required depending on degree and improvement sought.
