Acne Injections

GET RID OF ACNE FASTER!

At Nature Derma™ we offer variety of acne treatment which include steroid injection. Acne injection serves the purpose of treating specific acne lesions such as deep papules, nodules, or cysts. The injection involves the direct administration of a diluted corticosteroid into the affected area using a small and generally painless needle. The primary goal is to rapidly alleviate inflammation associated with acne breakouts, leading to swift and effective results. Kenalog injections are particularly beneficial in reducing the chance of scarring, which is especially important for individuals prone to developing hyperpigmentation and pitted scarring following acne episodes. Additionally, these injections may also be employed to assist in shrinking existing scars. 

HOW DOES IT WORK:



1. Inflammation Reduction: Acne often involves inflammatory responses in the skin, leading to redness, swelling, and discomfort. When injected directly into acne lesions, helps to swiftly reduce inflammation. This is particularly beneficial for treating deep papules, nodules, or cysts.

2. Immunosuppression: Corticosteroids like triamcinolone acetonide have immunosuppressive effects, meaning they can dampen the immune system's activity. In the context of acne, this property helps to modulate the immune response responsible for the inflammation associated with acne lesions.

3. Quick Results: The injection delivers the corticosteroid directly to the site of the acne lesion, ensuring a rapid and localized effect. This targeted approach allows for faster relief compared to some topical or oral treatments.

4. Prevention of Scarring: Acne injections not only address current acne lesions but also contribute to preventing scarring. By reducing inflammation and the severity of the acne breakout, the likelihood of developing scars, especially for individuals prone to hyperpigmentation and pitted scarring, is diminished.

It's important to note that while Acne injections can be effective in certain cases, they are typically reserved for more severe forms of acne or specific types of lesions. The decision to use this treatment should be made by a qualified healthcare professional based on an individual's specific condition and medical history.
