Hello everyone! I am Dr. Chanapat Chinwetchakitwanich, or Dr. Nono (License No. 60686), the doctor and owner of Entrio Clinic, a medical aesthetic clinic in the heart of Ratchaprasong.
Throughout my career as a dermatologist at this Ratchaprasong Aesthetic Clinic, I have encountered countless patients who have faced an unending "acne war." Some have had acne since adolescence, extending into adulthood. Others have cleared their acne but are left with deep-seated scars, both on their faces and in their minds, whether they are red or dark acne marks, or even worse, acne scars that make the skin rough and uneven, causing many to lose confidence.
I understand that feeling well, because I myself have experienced acne problems before. Acne is not just about external beauty; it significantly impacts one's mental state, confidence, and overall quality of life.
Today, I, Dr. Nono, want to take this opportunity to invite everyone to "unlock the secrets" of acne problems and their aftermath, such as acne scars and acne marks. We will delve into their origins and true causes, along with exploring the correct and most effective methods of acne treatment, in accordance with modern medical principles that I use to care for patients at Entrio Clinic.
I will reveal every step, from diagnosis and basic self-care with skincare to the use of aesthetic technology and specialized procedures, to help you regain clear, blemish-free, smooth skin and self-confidence.
Are you ready? Let's begin the "acne conquest" mission with Dr. Nono from Entrio Clinic Ratchaprasong Aesthetic Clinic!
Part 1: Where Does the Acne War Begin? The Root Causes of 'Acne Problems' You Should Know
When talking about acne problems, many might only think of small red bumps appearing on the face or body. But in reality, the "acne war" we face has its roots in complex processes beneath our skin, caused by multiple interacting factors. If we don't understand the true "root cause" of the problem, it's like trying to put out a fire without knowing where the source of the flame is; ultimately, the fire can always flare up again.
Having dealt with countless acne problems at Entrio Clinic Ratchaprasong Aesthetic Clinic, I always explain to patients that acne problems, or medically known as Acne Vulgaris, are not just about dirtiness as many mistakenly believe. Instead, it is a "skin disease" with clear pathophysiological mechanisms, and a thorough understanding of these mechanisms is the "first key" to effective and sustainable acne treatment.
Today, I will take you deep into the microscopic world beneath the skin to understand the "4 main mechanisms" that are the root causes of acne problems, as well as reveal the "contributing factors" that often fuel the spread and severity of acne.
Unraveling the 4 Main Mechanisms: Towards the Origin of 'Acne Problems'
Imagine our pores as small "volcano vents," with sebaceous glands at their base that naturally produce oil (Sebum) to moisturize and protect the skin. However, when abnormalities occur in these processes, the "volcano vent" is ready to erupt into acne at any time.
1. Excessive Sebum Production (Seborrhea): 'Oil Overload Condition'
Origin from Sebaceous Glands
Beneath our skin are "sebaceous glands," which are factories that produce natural oil, or "Sebum." This oil has an important function: to coat the skin, making it soft, moisturized, and creating a protective barrier. But for people prone to acne, especially those with oily skin, these oil factories work extra hard, producing more Sebum than necessary, making the face appear shiny, greasy, and leading to a condition called "Seborrhea."
Why is so much produced?
Excessive oil production is often stimulated by androgen hormones, which are male sex hormones present in both men and women. This is why we frequently see acne during adolescence when hormones are surging, or in some adults with hormone imbalance problems.
Impact
When there's an abundance of Sebum, the consequences include enlarged pores to drain the oil. Most importantly, this excess Sebum becomes an "excellent food source" for bacteria and "helps" dead skin cells to clump together more tightly, leading to the next mechanism...
2. Clogged Pores (Follicular Hyperkeratinization): 'A Dead End for Skin Cells'
Old skin cells that don't go anywhere
Normally, our skin continuously sheds old, dead skin cells to allow new ones to replace them. This process takes approximately 28 days. However, for people with acne problems, the process of skin cell shedding in the pore walls becomes abnormal. Old skin cells that should have shed instead clump together tightly and accumulate inside the pores.
When skin cells combine with oil
These dead skin cells combine with the excessively produced Sebum and various impurities, forming an "obstruction" called a "Comedone" or "clogged pore." There are two main types of comedones we are familiar with:
Blackheads (Open Comedones / Blackheads)
Result from a clog at the end of the pore that opens to the outside. When the comedone head comes into contact with air, oxidation of fats and skin cells occurs, making the comedone tip appear black; it's not because of dirt, as is often misunderstood.
Whiteheads (Closed Comedones / Whiteheads)
Result from a clog at the end of the pore that is completely closed beneath the skin. They appear as small white or skin-colored bumps. If not properly managed, whiteheads are more likely to become inflamed acne than blackheads.
Bacterial Pathway
This clogging not only makes the skin look uneven but also creates an "ideal environment" for bacterial growth, which leads us to the third mechanism.
3. Proliferation of P.acnes Bacteria (Cutibacterium acnes Proliferation): 'The Notorious Invader'
Commensal Bacteria
Everyone's skin naturally hosts a type of bacteria called Cutibacterium acnes (formerly Propionibacterium acnes or P.acnes). This bacterium usually thrives in anaerobic (oxygen-free) conditions and feeds on oil (Sebum).
When the environment is favorable
When pores become clogged with a large number of skin cells and Sebum, the environment inside the pores becomes anaerobic, which P.acnes favors, and it has abundant food. This causes this bacterium to "multiply rapidly," turning from a friend into an enemy.
Releasing inflammatory substances
When P.acnes proliferates excessively, it produces various substances and enzymes. These substances then trigger an "inflammatory reaction" within the pores. This is the beginning of "inflammatory acne."
4. Inflammation: 'An Escalating Body Response'
Combat Mechanism
When the body detects an obstruction and an abnormally high proliferation of P.acnes bacteria, it sends "immune cells" to deal with them, to destroy the bacteria and foreign matter that are clogging the pore.
Symptoms
This immune system combat process is what causes "inflammation," which we can observe as swelling, redness, and pain around the acne lesion.
From Clogged Pores to Various Types of 'Inflamed Acne':
Papules
Small inflamed acne lesions with no pus head, slightly painful.
Pustules
Red bumps with a yellowish-white pus head in the center.
Nodules (Large Inflamed Acne / Cystic Acne)
Inflamed acne lesions larger than normal, appearing as hard lumps under the skin, causing significant pain due to deep inflammation reaching the dermis.
Cysts
Large inflamed acne lesions that appear as fluid-filled or pus-filled sacs under the skin, often interconnected with multiple lesions, and causing severe pain.
Subsequent Damage
If inflammation is severe and prolonged, it will result in "damage to collagen" and underlying skin tissue, which is the main cause of subsequent acne scars and acne marks.
Contributing Factors: Fueling the 'Acne War' to Escalate
In addition to the 4 main mechanisms mentioned above, from my perspective as Dr. Nono at Entrio Clinic Ratchaprasong Aesthetic Clinic, I also see several "contributing factors" that act as "fuel," causing each person's acne problems to differ and making acne treatment more complex:
1. Hormonal Fluctuations:
Teenage Trouble
Increased androgen hormones during adolescence stimulate sebaceous glands to work harder, making acne more likely in both males and females.
Adult Acne
In adult women, acne may flare up during menstruation, pregnancy, or in conditions with hormonal imbalances such as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), which often manifests as acne around the chin, mouth, and jawline.
2. Genetics: 'Family Acne'
If your parents or siblings have a history of severe acne, you are also more likely to develop acne easily and severely. Genetics plays a role in determining the size and function of sebaceous glands, as well as the skin's response to various factors.
3. Stress: 'Anxiety Acne'
When we are stressed, the body releases cortisol, a stress hormone. This hormone can stimulate sebaceous glands to produce more oil and also affects the immune system, worsening inflammation and slowing down the skin's repair process.
4. Diet: 'What You Eat... Hints About Your Skin'
Although widely debated, based on observing many patients, I have found that certain foods may worsen acne in some individuals, especially:
Dairy Products
Especially cow's milk, may contain substances that stimulate the production of hormones related to acne.
High Glycemic Index Foods
Such as white bread, white rice, and sugary drinks, may stimulate insulin and IGF-1 secretion, which in turn stimulate Sebum production and inflammation.
Adjusting dietary habits is therefore a part of the holistic approach to acne problems that Dr. Nono emphasizes.
5. Comedogenic Products (Cosmetics and Skincare Products): 'Helper Turned Villain'
Using unsuitable products or those with comedogenic ingredients (that cause pore blockage) is a significant cause of new blackheads and inflammatory acne.
Recommendation: Always look for "Non-comedogenic," "Oil-free," and "Non-acnegenic" on product labels.
6. Friction & Irritation: 'Contact Acne'
Frequent touching of the face, picking, squeezing, or scratching acne, wearing helmets, face masks, tight clothing, or even frequently holding a phone to the cheek can all trigger acne mechanica (acne from friction) or worsen existing acne, leaving clearer acne marks and scars that are difficult to treat.
A detailed understanding of these "root causes" and "contributing factors" is the essential foundation for planning the most effective and targeted acne treatment. Once we understand the origins of acne, it's like having a roadmap that helps us "strategize" in managing acne intelligently, which is what I, Dr. Nono, do with every patient at Entrio Clinic Ratchaprasong Aesthetic Clinic.
In the next part, I will delve into the correct "skincare routine" and modern "aesthetic technology" that will help you confidently achieve your goal of "clear, blemish-free skin"!
Part 2: Acne-Fighting Skincare Routine: Tips from 'Dr. Nono' for 'Clear, Blemish-Free Skin' with Proper Care – Your Secret Weapon from Entrio Clinic
In the previous part, we understood the "root causes" of acne problems, including the complex main mechanisms beneath our skin and the contributing factors that make acne worse. Today, we will enter the true "battlefield" of acne treatment, and the first and most important "weapon," which is the frontline of the fight, is a "correct skincare routine."
I often compare choosing skincare for acne-prone skin to "cooking." You need to select good ingredients, prepare them in the right proportions, and follow the steps meticulously. Only then will the result be delicious and good for your skin's health. If you choose incorrectly or use them improperly, instead of improving, your skin can easily worsen.
Many people with acne problems often mistakenly believe that they need to use strong products to dry out acne quickly, or that the drier and tighter their face feels, the better. This is a dangerous and absolutely incorrect belief! Doing so will not only fail to clear your acne but may also damage your skin barrier, making your skin more easily irritated and sensitive, and stimulating your sebaceous glands to produce excessive oil to compensate for the dryness, leading to a vicious cycle where acne never truly clears.
At Entrio Clinic Ratchaprasong Aesthetic Clinic, I, Dr. Nono, prioritize choosing skincare that is "gentle yet effective" to maintain skin balance, cleanse pores, reduce inflammation, and strengthen the skin barrier.
First Step to 'Clear, Blemish-Free Skin': Dr. Nono's Principles for Choosing Skincare
Before we go into the details of each step, I want you to remember these 4 "important principles" when buying products:
Non-comedogenic (Does not cause clogging)
This is the most important key for acne-prone skin! Every product you use, whether it's a cleanser, moisturizer, sunscreen, or even makeup, should always have "Non-comedogenic" or "Non-acnegenic" indicated on the label. This means the product has been tested and found not to cause pore clogging, which is the main cause of blackheads and inflammatory acne.
Oil-free (Free from oil)
For people with oily and acne-prone skin, choosing oil-free products will help reduce the burden on the skin, reduce stickiness, and reduce the risk of clogging better than products with heavy oil ingredients.
Fragrance-free / Alcohol-free
Fragrances and alcohol used in many products are excellent "triggers" that can easily irritate sensitive skin and worsen inflammatory acne. Especially for sensitive skin, avoiding these ingredients will greatly protect your skin.
Gentle
Always remember that "stronger is better" is not the principle for acne-prone skin. Using overly strong products will damage the skin barrier, making the skin dry, tight, easily irritated, and may stimulate the sebaceous glands to produce more oil as a response. Choose products that are gentle on the skin, so your skin can recover and maintain its natural balance.
Daily Skincare Routine: 4 Steps to 'Clear, Blemish-Free Skin' Recommended by 'Dr. Nono'
Once you understand the principles, let's organize your skincare routine. I will divide it into 4 main steps that must be done consistently, both morning and evening:
1. Cleansing: 'Wash... but Don't Harm the Skin'
Goal: To remove dirt, excess oil, makeup, and dead skin cells without damaging the skin barrier or making the skin overly dry and tight.
Choose:
Gel or foam cleansers that have minimal lather, or are foam-free (non-foaming cleanser), are even better, as excessive foam often contains surfactants that can be harsh on the skin.
Oil-free and Non-comedogenic formulas: Check the label carefully.
Recommended Ingredients:
Salicylic Acid (BHA): In appropriate concentrations (0.5-2%), helps to exfoliate dead skin cells and dissolve oil clogs in pores, reducing the formation of blackheads and also slightly reducing inflammation.
Zinc PCA: Helps control oil and reduce inflammation.
Gentle Surfactants: Gentle cleansing agents such as Coco-Betaine, Decyl Glucoside.
How to Use:
Wash your face only twice a day (morning and evening). Washing your face too often will stimulate the sebaceous glands to work harder.
Use room temperature water. Never use hot or very warm water, as it will make your skin drier and more irritated.
Gently massage the cleanser all over your face, especially in areas with acne and large pores. Use your fingertips to gently rub in circular motions; do not scrub vigorously.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water, then gently pat your face dry with a clean, soft towel (use a separate towel specifically for your face and wash it regularly).
Things to Avoid:
Cleansers that make your skin feel "squeaky clean" after washing (this means you have stripped away natural oils and damaged your skin barrier), and vigorously scrubbing your face with a brush or loofah.
2. Treatment: 'Targeted... Solving Problems at the Root Cause'
Goal:
To manage the main causes of acne, including clogging, bacteria, and inflammation.
Choose (Consult a doctor or pharmacist before using medication):
Salicylic Acid (BHA): (If not already used in a cleanser) Available in toner, serum, or gel form. Apply all over the face or specifically to problem areas. Helps with clogged pores and reduces inflammation.
Benzoyl Peroxide (BP): An effective medication for killing P.acnes bacteria and helping to reduce clogging. Available in concentrations from 2.5% to 10%. It is recommended to start with the lowest concentration (2.5%) to reduce irritation. Often used as a spot treatment for inflamed acne 10-15 minutes before washing your face, or as directed by a doctor.
Retinoids (Vitamin A derivatives): Such as Adapalene, Tretinoin (prescription medication) or Retinol (for general use) are "gold standard" in acne treatment! They work to normalize skin cell turnover, reduce pore clogging, reduce inflammation, and also help reduce acne marks. Should be used at night, starting with less frequent use (e.g., every other day) to allow the skin to adapt, as irritation may occur initially.
Azelaic Acid: Helps reduce inflammation, kills bacteria, reduces the formation of clogged pores, and notably helps reduce red and dark acne marks. Available in cream or gel form.
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): A gentle but powerful ingredient that helps reduce inflammation, reduce redness, control oil, tighten pores, and strengthen the skin barrier. Can be used both morning and evening.
How to Use:
Apply treatment products after cleansing, either all over the face or as a spot treatment, depending on the product type and recommendations. If using multiple products, start with the lightest texture first, then follow with heavier ones.
3. Moisturizing: 'Adding Water... Reducing Oil... Building a Skin Barrier'
Goal:
To provide essential moisture to the skin to maintain balance, reduce dryness and tightness from acne medications, and strengthen the skin barrier, which will help reduce irritation and prevent new acne breakouts.
Choose:
Gel or lightweight lotion moisturizers that absorb quickly and are non-greasy. Oil-free and Non-comedogenic formulas are extremely important!
Recommended Ingredients:
Hyaluronic Acid: An excellent humectant that draws water into the skin without causing oiliness.
Glycerin: Another gentle and effective humectant.
Ceramides, Cholesterol, Fatty Acids: Important components of the skin barrier, helping to restore and strengthen the skin, making it more resilient to external factors.
Panthenol (Vitamin B5): Helps soothe the skin, reduce redness and itching, and promote skin repair.
How to Use:
Apply moisturizer immediately after applying treatment products (and serum, if applicable) both morning and evening. Apply an appropriate amount, not too much, to avoid a heavy feeling on the face.
Tip: Apply when the skin is still slightly damp after washing, as this helps the moisturizer absorb better and lock in moisture.
4. Protection: 'Shield... Stopping Permanent Acne Marks'
4. ปกป้องผิว (Protection): 'เกราะป้องกัน...หยุดรอยสิวถาวร'
Goal:
To protect the skin from UV radiation, a major cause of dark acne marks and worsening of inflammatory acne.
Choose:
Sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher and Broad Spectrum properties to protect against both UVA (causes wrinkles and dullness) and UVB (causes sunburn) rays. Oil-free and Non-comedogenic formulas are most important for acne-prone skin!
Gel, lotion, or fluid textures that absorb quickly, leaving no greasiness or white cast. Physical sunscreens (Mineral Sunscreens) containing Zinc Oxide and/or Titanium Dioxide may be a good option for sensitive skin as they are less likely to cause clogging than chemical sunscreens.
How to Use:
Apply daily in sufficient quantity (about two finger-lengths for face and neck) in the morning, as the last step of your skincare routine. Reapply throughout the day if necessary, especially when outdoors for prolonged periods, sweating heavily, or after swimming.
What 'Dr. Nono' Emphasizes Especially for the 'Acne War': Patience and Consistency
Acne treatment is not a marathon that ends in one day, but a journey that requires patience and consistency. Results may not be immediately visible, but if done correctly, you will see gradual improvement.
Absolutely Do NOT Squeeze, Pick, or Pop Your Own Acne!
I want to reiterate that this is a "trap" that can easily prevent you from achieving "clear, blemish-free skin." Squeezing acne yourself carries a risk of infection, scarring, and is a major cause of difficult-to-treat acne scars and marks.
Patch Test for New Products:
Especially for treatment products with high concentrations, you should test them on a small area of your inner forearm or behind your ear for at least 2-3 days to see if there is any allergic reaction or irritation.
Consult a Doctor:
If your acne problems do not improve after diligent self-care with skincare, or if they are severe, such as having a large number of inflammatory acne lesions, cystic acne, or nodular acne, you should consult an expert doctor like myself at Entrio Clinic Ratchaprasong Aesthetic Clinic to receive an accurate diagnosis and an appropriate treatment plan. It may be necessary to use prescription medications or consider treatment with aesthetic technology, which will be discussed in the next part.
Proper skincare for acne-prone skin is the strongest "foundation" for building "clear, blemish-free skin." If the foundation is strong, the use of other powerful "secret weapons" will further enhance the results, which we will delve into in the next part!
Part 3: Beyond Skincare: 'Dr. Nono' Introduces In-Depth Treatment for 'Acne-Acne Scars-Acne Marks' at Entrio Clinic – When Skincare Isn't Enough... It's Time for 'Aesthetic Technology' to Help
In the previous part, we laid a crucial foundation with a correct and gentle "acne-fighting skincare routine," which is the heart of daily self-care. However, in the complex world of acne problems, sometimes skincare alone may not be enough. This is especially true when facing severe inflamed acne, deep acne marks, or acne scars that are stubborn reminders of the past, difficult to erase on your own.
This is where "medical advancements" and modern "aesthetic technology" play a crucial role. At Entrio Clinic Ratchaprasong Aesthetic Clinic, I, Dr. Nono, believe in treating acne and its aftermath with a holistic approach that combines self-care with medical tools proven to be effective and safe.
It's like waging a war. Besides infantry (skincare), we also need air support (technology) and special forces (medical procedures) to truly achieve the goal of "clear, blemish-free skin"!
I will take you through the "secret weapons" and "specialized strategies" I use to treat patients at Entrio Clinic to manage complex acne problems, acne marks, and acne scars.
1. Specialized 'Acne' Treatment: When Basic Care Isn't Enough
For acne problems that continue to bother you, even with diligent skincare, my team and I at Entrio Clinic have a variety of treatment approaches to control and reduce new breakouts.
1.1 Comedone Extraction & Acne Injection: 'Eliminating Clogs & Rapidly Reducing Inflammation'
Comedone Extraction More than just squeezing! Comedone extraction by an expert doctor or well-trained specialist at Entrio Clinic is a crucial and delicate procedure to properly remove clogged pores, both blackheads and whiteheads. This reduces blockages in the pores and prevents them from developing into inflamed acne or reduces the risk of future acne scars. Improper extraction can lead to infection, acne marks, and scars, so it should never be attempted on your own.
Acne Injection For inflamed acne that is swollen, red, large, and painful, injecting a small amount of specially diluted steroid directly into the acne lesion will rapidly reduce inflammation, swelling, and pain. This causes the acne to shrink within 24-48 hours, significantly reducing the risk of leaving acne marks and scars.
1.2 Personalized Facials for Acne-Prone Skin: 'Targeted Treatments for Balanced Skin'
At Entrio Clinic, we offer personalized facial programs designed specifically for acne-prone skin. These differ from general facials by focusing on deep cleansing, gentle exfoliation, oil control, and inflammation reduction, all based on proper medical principles. This may include:
Using gentle exfoliating enzymes or acids to help open pores and reduce blockages.
Specialized face masks with anti-inflammatory, oil-controlling, and skin-soothing ingredients such as clay masks, green tea, or Centella Asiatica extract.
LED Light Therapy, especially blue light, which helps kill P.acnes bacteria and reduce inflammation, and red light, which helps reduce redness and promotes skin repair.
1.3 Morpheus8: 'Skin Tightening, Oil Control, Acne Reduction... Comprehensive'
Morpheus8 is not just renowned for skin tightening; it's also a highly effective RF Microneedling (radiofrequency with microneedles) technology for managing acne problems, especially oily skin and enlarged pores.
Special Mechanism: The Morpheus8 tip has very small needles that can deliver radiofrequency (RF) energy into the skin at precise depths up to 4mm. This precisely delivered heat helps to directly reduce the size and inhibit the function of sebaceous glands located deep within the skin. This significantly reduces oil production, leading to a noticeable reduction in new acne breakouts and control over facial oiliness. It also helps to tighten pores and stimulate new collagen production, which is beneficial for treating acne scars and making the skin smoother.
1.4 IV Drip (Skin Vitamins): 'Nourishing Skin from Within... Boosting Immunity'
Intravenous Drip, or what patients often call IV Drip (Skin Vitamins), is another option at Entrio Clinic to help enhance acne treatment and restore skin health from within.
Principle: Delivering vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants (such as Vitamin C, a crucial anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, and Glutathione, which helps reduce pigmentation) directly into the bloodstream allows the body to absorb and utilize them fully and quickly.
Benefits for Acne: Helps reduce systemic inflammation, which is beneficial for reducing inflamed acne, strengthens the skin's immunity, making it healthier, and aids in the skin's regeneration process, reducing the chance of acne marks. It also helps the skin achieve a radiant and bright glow from the inside out.
2. Treating 'Post-Acne Marks': 'Erasing Past Traces... Revealing Even New Skin'
Once acne subsides, the lingering acne marks often become a source of concern, no less than the acne itself. At Entrio Clinic, I have effective methods for managing red and dark acne marks
2.1 Red Acne Marks (Post-Inflammatory Erythema - PIE): 'Reducing Redness... Restoring Smoothness'
Cause: Red marks occur when capillaries under the skin in the area of previous inflamed acne become dilated, or when inflammation persists.
Lumecca: 'Intense Light Power for Redness'
Lumecca is a powerful and broad-spectrum Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology that excels at treating pigmentation and vascular abnormalities.
Mechanism: Lumecca light is absorbed by the red pigment in dilated capillaries, causing the blood vessels to constrict and fade rapidly. This effectively reduces red acne marks and various capillary veins, restoring even skin tone and noticeably brightening the complexion.
Personalized Redness Reduction Treatment: May include treatments with Niacinamide, Centella Asiatica, or Azelaic Acid, which help reduce inflammation and soothe the skin, reducing redness.
2.2 Dark Acne Marks (Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation - PIH): 'Breaking Down Pigment... Clear, Spotless Skin'
Cause: Dark marks occur when skin cells produce excessive melanin pigment in areas that were previously inflamed by acne, especially common in darker skin tones.
Lumecca: 'Dual Light Power for Dark Marks' Lumecca not only helps with redness but can also effectively treat dark acne marks, sunspots, superficial melasma, and uneven skin tone. The light is absorbed by excess pigment, breaking it down, and the body eliminates it, resulting in brighter and clearer skin.
Definisse Hydrobooster: 'Hydrating... Fortifying Skin... Reducing Dark Mark Chances'
Definisse Hydrobooster: 'Hydrating... Fortifying Skin... Reducing Dark Mark Chances' Although primarily a skin booster focused on hydration, injecting Definisse Hydrobooster, which is concentrated pure hyaluronic acid, directly into the skin provides deep hydration. This makes the skin appear plump, strong, and healthy from within. Strong and well-hydrated skin has improved self-repair processes, reducing the chance of dark marks and helping existing dark marks fade faster.
Depigmenting Agents: Using skincare with ingredients like Vitamin C, Arbutin, Kojic Acid, Tranexamic Acid, or Retinoids under medical supervision will help inhibit new pigment production and accelerate the exfoliation of pigmented skin cells.) ภายใต้การดูแลของแพทย์ จะช่วยยับยั้งการสร้างเม็ดสีใหม่และเร่งการผลัดเซลล์ผิวที่มีเม็ดสีออกไป
3. Treating 'Acne Scars': 'Restoring Skin Structure... Returning Smoothness'
Acne scars are the biggest challenge in acne treatment because they involve actual structural changes in the skin (collagen damage). Managing acne scars requires stimulating new collagen production intensely and through various methods. At Entrio Clinic, I have technologies and procedures designed specifically to treat acne scars:
3.1 Morpheus8: 'RF Microneedling to Improve Acne Scars'
As mentioned, Morpheus8 isn't just for inflamed acne; it's "gold" for treating acne scars, especially boxcar and rolling scars.
Rejuvenation Mechanism: The tiny needles of Morpheus8 penetrate the dermis and deliver RF energy at precise depths. This thermal energy stimulates the contraction of old collagen and significantly boosts the production of new collagen and elastin. This "remodeling" process of the skin's structure causes depressed acne scars to gradually become shallower, the skin to become smoother, and its elasticity to visibly improve.
Comprehensive Results: Besides acne scars, it also helps tighten pores, reduce oiliness, and improve overall skin quality.
3.2 Fractora: 'Targeted Treatment for Acne Scars and Other Scars'
Fractora is another Fractional RF technology similar to Morpheus8 but with specific properties suitable for treating acne scars and various types of scars, including other types of scars.
Working Principle: Fractora delivers RF energy through a tip with tiny needles or pins, creating controlled micro-lesions on the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the repair process and the production of new collagen and elastin, allowing tissue damaged by acne scars to regenerate, resulting in smoother skin and improved skin quality.
3.3 Subcision: 'Releasing Tethered Scars'
For deep rolling scars, which appear as wide, undulating depressions, often due to fibrous bands pulling the skin down, Subcision is a highly effective method.
Procedure: I use a special needle with a small, sharp tip inserted under the skin in the acne scar area to "undermine" and cut the fibrous bands that tether the skin down. This releases the pulled skin, allowing it to lift. Additionally, the injury from the subcision helps stimulate new collagen production in that area, further helping to lift the acne scar. It is often combined with other treatments like Morpheus8 or Fractora for enhanced effectiveness.
3.4 Dermal Fillers: 'Filling Acne Scars... Immediate Results'
In some cases, especially for shallow rolling scars not heavily tethered by fibrous bands, or when patients desire rapid results, injecting Dermal Fillers (Hyaluronic Acid fillers) directly into the depressed scar can visibly improve the scar's depth "immediately after the procedure," making the skin appear smoother and more even. The filler used must be specifically suitable for filling acne scars.
Holistic Treatment Strategy for Sustainable 'Clear, Blemish-Free Skin' by 'Dr. Nono'
At Entrio Clinic Ratchaprasong Aesthetic Clinic, my team and I believe that treating acne, acne scars, and acne marks requires a holistic and personalized approach. This means we don't just look at the visible problem; we analyze:
Accurate Diagnosis: Assessing skin type, type of acne, acne scars, acne marks, and various contributing factors.
Appropriate Medication and Skincare: This is the essential foundation for long-term control and prevention of new acne.
Medical Procedures: Such as comedone extraction and acne injection, to manage existing acne and reduce inflammation.
Advanced Aesthetic Technology: Such as Morpheus8, Fractora, Lumecca, Definisse Hydrobooster, to effectively manage acne scars and acne marks.
Internal Care: Such as IV Drip (Skin Vitamins), and advice on diet, sleep, and stress management, to promote healthy skin from within.
Every step will be under the close supervision and guidance of an expert doctor to ensure your safety and the best possible results.
Having clear, blemish-free, smooth skin is not a matter of luck, but a result of understanding, correct care, and access to modern medical advancements. Don't let acne problems overshadow your confidence any longer! Come start your journey to "dream skin" with us at Entrio Clinic Ratchaprasong Aesthetic Clinic. I, Dr. Nono, am always ready to be your assistant.
Part 4: Why Entrio Clinic is Your Answer for 'Clear, Blemish-Free Skin' in Ratchaprasong? – 'Dr. Nono' Reveals Why Entrio Clinic is the Best Choice for Your Beautiful Skin
Throughout the previous article, I have taken you deep into the "acne war," from its mechanisms of occurrence, proper skincare, to the "secret weapons" of medical and modern aesthetic technology we use to effectively manage acne problems, acne scars, and acne marks.
Now, a crucial question might arise in your mind: "Why is Entrio Clinic the answer for me?" As the doctor and owner of the clinic, I understand well that choosing the right Ratchaprasong Aesthetic Clinic to entrust with your skin care is not easy. You need to be confident that you will receive the best, safest care, and results that meet your needs.
Therefore, I want to take this opportunity to explain the "core principles" that make Entrio Clinic stand out and different, and why we are a choice you can trust to help you achieve your goal of "clear, blemish-free skin" and lasting confidence.
4 Core Principles That Make Entrio Clinic Your Answer for 'Clear, Blemish-Free Skin'
1. A True Expert Doctor: 'Experience, Knowledge, and Care from Someone Who Understands Deeply'
Proven Qualifications and Experience: I, Dr. Chanapat Chinwetchakitwanich, or Dr. Nono (License No. 60686), graduated with a Doctor of Medicine from Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, a leading institution in Thailand. Importantly, I pursued further studies with a Master of Science in Clinical Dermatology from Cardiff University, Cardiff, United Kingdom, which is a specialized dermatology program. This international education has given me a deep understanding of skin physiology, the mechanisms of various skin diseases, especially acne problems, and the latest evidence-based treatment approaches.
Experience in Patient Care: I have extensive experience in treating patients with various skin problems, especially cases of acne, acne scars, and acne marks, including teenage acne, adult acne, hormonal acne, and complex deep acne scars. I have seen countless cases and learned about the diversity of problems, which allows me to accurately assess each individual's skin condition and plan the most suitable treatment.
Every Case Directly Supervised by a Doctor: At Entrio Clinic, I prioritize personally diagnosing and planning treatment for every case to ensure that every patient receives close care from an expert doctor and correct advice, not just a standardized formula. Because I believe that the best acne treatment is one that truly "understands" and "addresses" the problems of each individual patient.
2. Personalized Treatment: 'Designed for You... Unique'
Every Skin is Unique: I firmly believe that everyone's skin is unique, whether it's due to ethnicity, genetics, lifestyle, or different environmental factors. Therefore, each person's acne problem has complex causes and forms, and a single treatment plan cannot be applied to everyone.
Detailed Analysis: At Entrio Clinic, we start with a detailed history taking, assess your skin condition with modern tools, analyze the type of acne, acne scars, acne marks, and various contributing factors such as hormones, stress, diet, and skincare habits.
Personalized Holistic Treatment Plan: From the analysis, we will design a personalized holistic treatment plan that truly adapts to your specific needs. It may involve a combination of:
Appropriate Medication and Skincare: Both topical and oral medications, and skincare products that I will select to suit you.
Medical Procedures: Comedone extraction and acne injection, which must be performed by experts.
Precise Aesthetic Technology: Morpheus8, Fractora, Lumecca, Definisse Hydrobooster, with energy settings and depths adjusted to your specific skin problems.
Internal Care: IV Drip (Skin Vitamins) and necessary lifestyle advice.
Goal is Sustainable Results: This personalized care will help you achieve the best, most targeted, and most sustainable results because we will solve problems at their root cause and restore balance to your skin.
3. State-of-the-Art Technology, International Standards: 'Innovation for the Best and Safest Results'
Investment in the Best Technology: Entrio Clinic is committed to offering the best to our patients. This includes investing in the most modern aesthetic technologies that are internationally recognized, such as:
Morpheus8: The ultimate RF Microneedling technology for skin tightening, oil reduction, pore refinement, and acne scar treatment, which I have already explained in detail.
Fractora: Fractional RF with high efficacy in treating acne scars and other scars.
Lumecca: The most powerful IPL for treating red acne marks, dark acne marks, and various pigments, resulting in brighter skin.
Ultherapy PRIME: High-precision ultrasound technology for lifting and tightening (though not directly for acne, it exemplifies the world-class technology we choose).
Oligio: Another RF Monopolar technology for skin tightening and collagen stimulation (demonstrates the clinic's diverse and modern equipment).
Definisse Hydrobooster: A skin booster that provides deep hydration and revitalizes skin from within.
Diolaze XL: Highly effective permanent hair removal laser (demonstrates the clinic's broad range of services).
Highest Safety Standards: All our equipment and tools are certified by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in both the USA and Thailand, as well as other relevant regulatory bodies. We regularly maintain and calibrate our equipment to ensure that all tools operate at their maximum efficiency and safety for all patients.
