Hello, this is Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic, the beginning of Coratherapy for scar removal.
Even after acne disappears, the indented scars left on the skin are a major concern for many people.
In particular, boxcar scars, which are square-shaped and deeply indented, make the skin texture uneven,
causing stress about appearance and sometimes lowering self-confidence.
Such scars can go beyond simple skin troubles and affect the quality of life,
leaving not only physical but also emotional scars.
Therefore, it is essential to have an accurate understanding and management of boxcar scars to treat them.
In this article, we will delve into the characteristics and causes of boxcar scars,
and how they can be treated with Coratherapy.

What are Boxcar Scars?

Boxcar scars are a type of acne scars,
characterized by square or rectangular indentations on the skin’s surface.
They typically have well-defined edges and are close to right angles,
varying in size depending on their depth and width.
These square-shaped indentations make the skin texture uneven,
and they become more noticeable under light, causing many people to feel stressed about their appearance.
Boxcar scars occur when inflammatory acne damages the deeper layers of the skin,
and collagen fails to regenerate properly during the healing process.
Due to their distinct and sharp edges,
they are difficult to conceal even with makeup.

Treatment for Boxcar Scars

So, how can boxcar scars be treated?
Treating boxcar scars requires a medical approach.
Common treatments for boxcar scars include Coratherapy, Pico Fraxel laser, dot peel, filler procedures, and subcision.

1. Coratherapy: A Korean medicine-based method that uses micro-needles to directly stimulate the scar area, inducing collagen production.

2. Laser Treatment: Uses lasers like Fraxel or CO2 to stimulate the skin around the scar, promoting collagen generation.

3. Fillers: Injects fillers like hyaluronic acid beneath the scar to temporarily lift the indented area.

4. Chemical Peeling: Includes treatments like dot peel, which uses acidic solutions to exfoliate the skin surface and encourage new skin regeneration.

5. Subcision: Uses a needle to break down the fibrous tissue beneath the scar, reducing its appearance.

However, treating boxcar scars involves softening the edges of the scar
and encouraging the skin to regenerate from the base upwards.
Many people first think of subcision,
but subcision involves stimulating the entire scar area to cut through fibrous tissue,
making it less precise for detailed treatment.
Therefore, the most recommended treatment for scars is Coratherapy.
So, what exactly is Coratherapy, and why is it effective for treating indented scars?

What is Coratherapy?

Coratherapy, specifically the Coratherapy provided by Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic,
is a Korean medicine-based scar treatment method that has been continuously developed since 2006.
Coratherapy uses specially designed needles to release adhesions within the skin
while stimulating the dermis layer to promote regeneration.
The stimulated skin generates its own regenerative substances,
which help restore skin cells from deep within the dermis.
As a result, the indented scar areas gradually fill in, restoring the original skin texture.
This treatment is particularly effective because the newly generated skin remains intact,
ensuring long-lasting results.

Additionally, Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic leverages 20 years of expertise to provide customized treatments,
carefully analyzing each patient’s scar characteristics and skin condition.

Indented scars are no longer a problem you have to give up on.
