Can Kelo.Cell Biogel help you to get rid of Acne Scars?
Acne, also known as Acne Vulgaris, affects up to 85% of adolescents and often persists until adulthood. Acne scars result from an alteration in the skin wound healing process of active acne. Although not every acne lesion causes a scar, severe scarring is reported in 30% of acne patients and about 95% of patients suffer from mild to moderate scarring. Severe and prolonged immune and inflammatory responses are strongly correlated with scar development. In fact, inflammatory cell infiltrates are found in 77% of atrophic acne scars.
Atrophic scars - the most common scars resulting from acne (~85%) - are characterized by collagen loss, resulting in skin depression. This category is even subdivided into ice-pick, boxcar and rolling scars. Although less frequent, keloid and hypertrophic scars may also occur as a result of collagen gain, originating raised scars within (hypertrophic) or beyond (keloid) the original borders.
According to current dermatologic guidelines, treatment of generalized atrophic acne scars include subcision, punch excision and elevation, injectable fillers, chemical peels, dermabrasion, micro-needling, and energy-based devices.
Unfortunately, none of these acne scar treatments is 100% effective. Scientific data indicates that early treatment of acne lesions would be the best approach to prevent acne scarring. Treatment should be maintained until the resolution of persistent inflammation and control of new lesion emergence.
KELO.CELL Biogel is a topical silicone gel that can help to prevent acne scars when included in your routine skincare. Its formula is enhanced by natural stem cell extracts which have powerful anti-inflammatory factors that decrease local inflammatory levels.
Thereby, early treatment with KELO.CELL Biogel will help to modulate the inflammatory response during acne lesion wound healing, lowering the risk of scarring. In addition, this comfortable silky gel induces hydration and regulates collagen synthesis, effectively ameliorating the appearance of all scar types even the old ones.
Moreover, you can use KELO.CELL Scar Concealer helps to prevent and improve the appearance of old and new scars while offering an immediate concealer effect.
