ACNE SURGERY
What is it?
Acne surgery is a minor dermatological procedure used to treat persistent or severe acne that does not respond to conventional treatments. It involves physically removing acne lesions, cysts, or scars to improve the skin’s appearance and prevent further complications.
When to opt for surgery?
- Persistent acne causing scarring or disfigurement.
- Acne lesions with significant buildup of pus or fluids.
- Severe cases of nodular or cystic acne unresponsive to topical or oral treatments.
- For cosmetic improvement of acne scars or post-inflammatory marks.
What do you see?
- Large, inflamed acne cysts or nodules.
- Painful lumps beneath the skin.
- Noticeable scars or pits caused by past acne breakouts.
- Blackheads, whiteheads, or pustules that remain unresolved.
Procedure
- Preparation: The area is cleansed and numbed using local anesthesia.
- Intralesional Steroid (ILS) Injections: Steroid injections may be administered to reduce inflammation in deep or cystic acne lesions.
- Subcision: A minor surgical procedure used to treat depressed acne scars.
- Drainage and Incision: For cystic acne, a small incision is made to drain trapped fluids or pus.
- Scar Revision: In some cases, techniques like subcision or punch excision are used to treat acne scars.
- Complementary Treatments: Acne surgery may be combined with chemical peels, laser therapy, or microneedling to enhance results.
Post-Procedure Care
- Follow-up within 7 to 10 days for assessment and further care.
- Cleanse the treated area gently as advised by your dermatologist.
- Avoid picking or touching the surgical site to prevent infection.
- Apply prescribed topical antibiotics or healing ointments regularly.
- Use broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect sensitive, healing skin.
- Follow your dermatologist’s guidance for maintaining a clear and healthy complexion.
