Hello, this is Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic, starting a new journey in scar treatment together with you.
Acne that begins during adolescence is often touched by hand,
leaving marks that persist into adulthood.
These are acne scars.
Especially scars on the cheeks tend to be large and deep, making it difficult to improve them
with treatments like MTS or Fraxel laser that only address the skin’s surface.
If you’ve already tried various treatments but still struggle with persistent scars,
you may be wondering which method to choose.
Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic recommends Coratherapy for these stubborn acne scars.

You may be curious why Coratherapy is effective for removing acne scars.
Today, we would like to explain the principles and effects of Coratherapy with a real case study.

Case :: Ice pick scars caused by picking and scratching acne during teenage and early twenties

History :: 8 sessions of Fraxel and multiple MTS treatments with no effect

Report :: 6 sessions of Coratherapy performed

The patient introduced today had acne during their teenage and early twenties,
which left scars due to picking and scratching.
Despite undergoing 8 sessions of Fraxel laser and multiple MTS treatments,
the results were minimal, leading the patient to seek other options.
Upon a recommendation from a friend who experienced good results with treating depressed scars,
the patient chose Coratherapy.

The patient’s scars were categorized as narrow and deep ice pick scars.
Such deep scars are difficult to improve with treatments that only stimulate the skin’s surface,
and it is essential to lift the scar’s base.
At Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic, we set the primary goal of lifting the scar’s base
and planned a total of 6 sessions of Coratherapy to begin the treatment.

After the third session of Coratherapy, the depth of the scars showed significant improvement.
Notably, larger scars became much shallower, and the skin surface became smoother.

After the final sixth session, the boundaries and depth of the scars had disappeared.
In particular, areas where the scars were completely filled in appeared smaller than the surrounding pores.
Although some redness remains, indicating the previous scar locations,
this redness will naturally fade over time.

Even as the redness gradually diminishes, the recovery process continues,
and over time, the scars will further improve.
This case demonstrates that Coratherapy is effective in improving deep acne scars.

The reason why depressed scars that did not improve with treatments like Fraxel laser or MTS
could recover with Coratherapy lies in its treatment principles.

Since 2006, Rodam Korean Medicine Clinic has been performing Coratherapy,
which uses specially designed needles to release adhesions in the scar tissue, promote collagen production,
and enhance the skin’s natural healing ability.
Through this process, the dermis layer regenerates, gradually improving deep scars.

However, the treatment’s effectiveness can vary depending on factors such as the patient’s skin condition,
the depth and extent of the scars, and the skin’s regenerative capacity.
Therefore, creating a customized treatment plan tailored to each patient is crucial.

Acne scars are not just a cosmetic issue but can also lead to psychological stress.

and strives to offer the most suitable treatment for each patient.
