Hello, this is Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic, the beginning of Coratherapy for scar removal.
Scars are one of the most common skin concerns that many people experience.
They not only affect one’s appearance but also significantly impact psychological confidence.
For this reason, various treatment methods have been studied,
and among them, Coratherapy has recently gained a lot of attention.
However, scars can vary greatly depending on their type and cause,
such as depressed scars, raised scars, or scars accompanied by pigmentation.
So, can Coratherapy show the same effectiveness for all types of scars?
Today, we will take a closer look at which types of scars Coratherapy is most effective for.

Types of Scars and Treatment Methods

As mentioned above, the types of scars are very diverse.
The representative types of scars include raised scars (keloids, hypertrophic scars), pigmented scars, and depressed scars.
Among these, for raised scars (keloids) or scars with pigmentation,
other treatment methods may be more suitable than Coratherapy.

– Raised scars (keloids, hypertrophic scars)
: For raised scars like keloids, Coratherapy is not suitable.
Coratherapy promotes collagen production,
but using it on keloids, where collagen is already excessively produced, can worsen the scars.
In such cases, steroid injections or compression therapy may be more appropriate.

– Pigmented scars
: For scars with melanin pigmentation (pigmented scars),
laser treatments or treatments with whitening agents are more effective than Coratherapy.
Since pigmentation is a change in skin color on the surface and not a structural change in the skin tissue,
laser treatments targeting blood vessels are more effective for vascular scars that appear red due to expanded blood vessels.

Which Scars Are Most Effectively Treated with Coratherapy?

So, which scars are most effectively treated with Coratherapy?
The answer is scars that are depressed below the surface of the skin.
Depressed scars, such as acne scars, are a common skin concern for many people.
Applying Coratherapy can help fill in the depressed areas by promoting collagen production and inducing skin regeneration.

Coratherapy is a treatment method that activates skin regeneration,
and it is particularly known for its effectiveness in treating depressed scars.
It helps repair damaged tissue and improves the overall skin condition,
bringing positive changes to acne scars or deeply depressed scars.

Additionally, it generally shows better results on larger scars.
With larger scars, Coratherapy can provide overall skin regeneration effects.
However, this does not mean that small scars cannot be treated.
The effectiveness may vary depending on the size and depth of the scar, but even small scars can show noticeable improvement.

What is Coratherapy?

So, what kind of treatment is Coratherapy that makes it effective for treating depressed scars?
Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic’s Coratherapy is a treatment method for depressed scars that began in 2006.
It activates the skin’s natural regenerative power to encourage new skin to grow and fill in the scars.
During the procedure, specially designed needles are used to delicately stimulate the boundary between the scar and normal skin,
allowing for more effective and natural skin improvement.
It is also characterized by its ability to treat various types of depressed scars caused by acne, chickenpox, shingles, or surgery.

The treatment principle of Coratherapy can be divided into three main steps.

• STEP 01: The fibrous tissue that forms the depressed scar, which pulls the skin downward, is delicately severed. This process creates space under the scar where new skin can grow, providing an environment for the skin to rise.
• STEP 02: The space created by Coratherapy increases blood supply, concentrating cells and growth factors necessary for skin regeneration. This activates fibroblasts, leading to the production of new skin tissue such as collagen and elastin.
• STEP 03: The newly formed tissue fills the depressed area, and as the process of keratin shedding repeats, the height of the scar gradually aligns with the normal skin.

In conclusion, Coratherapy is a treatment method that promotes skin regeneration to improve depressed scars.
It helps restore natural and healthy skin regardless of the cause or condition of the scar.

Today, we explored the types of scars and which scars Coratherapy is most effective for.
Scar treatment is not just about improving appearance but also plays an important role in restoring confidence and enhancing quality of life.
Therefore, a tailored approach that matches the condition and characteristics of the scar is essential for effective treatment.
