THE HISTORY OF THE FIRST SNAIL SLIME CREAM Snail slime cream, also known as snail cream, has a history rooted in antiquity. In ancient Greece, Hippocrates recommended the use of snails to treat skin inflammations, such as wounds or irritations. Snails were used for their regenerative and moisturizing properties, although the active ingredients of their slime were not fully understood at that time. Modern interest in snail slime was revived in the 1980s when snail farmers in Chile noticed that their hands were exceptionally smooth and healed quickly from cuts. This discovery attracted the attention of scientists who began to study the properties of the slime, leading to its use in cosmetics. The first snail cream was introduced to the market by a Chilean company in the 1990s. As a result of research, Elicina created the first commercial cream containing snail slime, which started a global trend in cosmetics. The product became popular first in South America and then in other markets, especially in Asia, where cosmetics containing natural ingredients gained huge recognition. The importance of snail slime is not limited to the cosmetics industry. Traditionally, it has also been used in natural medicine, especially in treating infections and accelerating tissue regeneration. Today, its use is mainly focused on skin care, where its unique regenerative properties are invaluable. POPULARITY OF SNAIL SLIME IN KOREA As a Polish expert brand using Asian ingredients in cosmetics, we became interested in Korean skin care using snail slime a dozen or so years ago. This ingredient has gained huge popularity in Korea and has become one of the pillars of the global success of Korean skin care (so-called K-beauty). Its phenomenon is based on numerous benefits for the skin, such as regeneration, moisturization and wrinkle reduction. The Korean approach to skin care focuses on prevention and healthy appearance, which perfectly matches the action of snail slime. Thanks to its regenerative and moisturizing abilities, it has been used in a wide range of products, such as creams, serums, masks and essences. What's more, Koreans value natural and innovative ingredients, and snail slime fits perfectly into this philosophy.

Snail slime is generally well tolerated, but as with any cosmetic, there is a risk of irritation in people with particularly sensitive skin or prone to allergies. In this case, it is recommended to perform an allergy test before fully using the product. Due to its natural composition, allergic reactions are rare, but can occur, especially if the product contains additional chemicals. Where do we buy snail slime from? In response to the growing demand for snail slime, ecological farms have emerged, where snails are bred in environmentally friendly conditions. On such farms, snails are fed natural food, and the slime is obtained humanely, without harming the animals. The slime is obtained using non-invasive methods, e.g. by gently stimulating the snails, which causes them to secrete slime. Then the snails are returned to their natural environment, where they continue their normal life. One of the basic principles of the Orientana brand is not to use ingredients to the detriment of animals. We attach great importance to ensuring that snails are bred humanely. Countries where snail slime cream is the most popular Creams with snail slime are particularly popular in Asia, especially in South Korea, which is a pioneer in the production of innovative cosmetics. In recent years, snail slime has also gained popularity in Poland. MUCIN Mucins are a family of heavily glycosylated proteins that are secreted by snails for adhesion, hydration, lubrication, and other functions. Despite their ubiquity, snail mucins are largely uncharacterized. Snails produce mucin proteins in their mucus with a wide range of biological functions, including microbial defense, adhesion, and lubrication. Recently, snail mucins have also become a lucrative source of innovation with a wide range of applications in chemistry, biology, biotechnology, and biomedicine. In particular, snail mucins are used as skin care products, wound healing agents, surgical adhesives, and for the treatment of gastric ulcers. Recent advances in integrated omics (genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, glycomic) technologies have improved the characterization of snail mucins, enhancing the generation of new biomaterials. Therapeutic applications of snail mucin in medicine have been explored as antimicrobial agents, drug carriers, anticancer agents, wound healing agents, and biomaterial coatings, among others. Additionally, applications in cosmetics include anti-aging care, moisturization, anti-acne, scarring, and hyperpigmentation. It is important to emphasize that most of the studies conducted are preclinical studies or small clinical trials, which underscores the need for additional large-scale clinical trials to support these claims. The global market for snail mucin products is estimated to be worth between $457 million and $1.2 billion, with growth forecasts in the coming decade. snail slime filtrate In fact, at Orientana we use snail slime filtrate. It is a concentrated extract that is created by purifying and filtering raw snail slime.

Snail slime filtrate is a technologically advanced cosmetic ingredient obtained by filtering and purifying raw snail slime. It is rich in regenerating, moisturizing and anti-aging substances, making it an effective ingredient in skin care. How is snail slime filtrate made? Snail slime is collected and purified. Raw slime contains water, proteins, enzymes, trace minerals, and other substances that may contain contaminants. The purification process is designed to eliminate unwanted substances such as dead cells, bacteria, and environmental pollutants. After purification, the mucus is filtered several times to obtain a pure and concentrated product that is ready to be used in cosmetics. During the filtration process, the mucus is transformed into a filtrate – a light, watery solution that easily penetrates the skin while preserving all the valuable active ingredients. The filtrate must be stabilized to maintain its properties over a long period of time. Therefore, appropriate preservatives or auxiliary substances are added to prevent decomposition and maintain the biological activity of the ingredients contained. Active ingredients in snail slime filtrate Snail slime filtrate contains a number of active ingredients that have a beneficial effect on the skin: Allantoin – accelerates cell regeneration, soothes and supports healing. Collagen and elastin – proteins that support skin elasticity and firmness. Glycolic acid – gently exfoliates dead skin, supporting skin renewal. Proteins and enzymes – nourish the skin, support its repair and protect it from external factors. Vitamins (A, C, E) – act as antioxidants, helping to protect the skin from the harmful effects of free radicals. The use of snail slime filtrate in cosmetics Snail slime filtrate is commonly used in skin care products such as anti-aging creams where it slows down the aging process, improves skin elasticity and reduces wrinkles. Moisturizing creams where it deeply moisturizes and nourishes the skin, especially dry and tired. Regenerating serums where it helps heal scars, reduce discoloration and repair damaged skin. Acne creams where, thanks to its anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties, the filtrate helps heal acne lesions and reduce scars. Snail slime filtrate is a technologically advanced cosmetic ingredient obtained by filtering and purifying raw snail slime.

How to choose a natural facial essence?
The fashion for essences used in facial care came to Poland straight from Asian countries. Korean or Japanese women use, among other things, a cosmetic with a watery consistency between the cleansing stage and the actual care with a cream, which is supposed to moisturize the skin very strongly. It is not always a natural product, but it is worth looking for essences that contain plant extracts, because they are skin-friendly and extremely effective in action. What is the difference between facial essence and cream? Essence can take different formulas: it can be as flowing as water have a gel-like consistency like a light cream or in the form of a delicate oil The significant difference between essence and cream is that it is very light and after its application you can easily apply other cosmetics such as cream or serum to your face and your complexion will not be burdened. Due to the fact that facial essence can take on different consistencies, it also has different methods of application and packaging. On the Polish market you can find essences: in the form of a mist for spraying the face in a form similar to a facial tonic – for cleansing the skin in the form of a liquid to be patted into the face in a practical gel formula in water or oil ampoules The function of essences is also not the same as a cream, because thanks to the specific composition of ingredients and formula, it is supposed to penetrate deeply into the skin, work intensively and stimulate cells. Even a natural face cream always additionally plays a protective role, so it must necessarily contain components such as butters, oils or emulsifiers or consistency-forming substances. Usually, creams also have added aromas and dyes. The cream applied to the essence will also prevent the ingredients contained in it from evaporating from the skin. It will cover the skin with a "blanket" that will protect it from the outside and the active substances from the natural facial essence will continue to work. Properties of natural essences. The fashion for natural essences for the face, borrowed from Asia, has of course been modified and adapted to European realities. Asian women use separate essences for the night and day, and still others especially before a big night out. Of course, each essence is also adapted to the skin type, skin problems and age of the consumer. Using several essences at the same time is also common - here we can refer to the famous Asian rituals, which recommend using several make-up removers, then appropriate essences and finally creams, serums and other products. In total, this is even a dozen or so cosmetics - and Asian women perform such a ritual in the morning and evening every day. In Europe, there are no such extensive traditions of multi-stage care, so we tend to use one essence. A natural facial essence can have, among other things, the following effects: moisturizing the skin toning the skin rejuvenating and lifting nourishing and regenerating soothing irritations regulating sebum production Orientana brand natural essences - types? At Orientana, among many natural facial cosmetics, you can buy two types of natural essences: SNAIL SLIME face essence PAPAYA and TURMERIC face essence Both are packaged in beautiful glass bottles and have an applicator attachment that allows for very convenient and practical dosing of the essence to the face. Orientana face essences are Polish natural cosmetics, but they have an unusual base - it is a plant from Asia called konjac (pronounced kondjak). This plant is a bit like a potato, but has a very irregular shape and a different skin. When konjac is dried and then ground, the resulting product, combined with water, gives a gel with wonderful moisturizing and nourishing properties - it is this gel obtained in this way that is the base of natural face essences. The undoubted advantage of natural konjac-based facial essences is their consistency – it is very light and absorbs quickly, but is incredibly comfortable to apply, because it is not watery, but pleasantly gel-like. The addition of snail slime makes the natural face essence a natural cosmetic with versatile applications. It will be an excellent support for: dry skin wrinkles and unevenness scars and discolorations lack of firmness problematic skin. In turn, the natural essence with papaya and turmeric is suitable for: discolorations and uneven skin tone skin that requires illumination and radiant glow inflammatory conditions.

Discover the best cosmetics with snail slime
The best snail slime cosmetics are enjoying growing popularity thanks to their exceptional regenerative and rejuvenating properties. In this post, you'll learn why it's worth using snail slime-based cosmetics and how to choose the right product for your needs. What is snail slime and why does it work? Snail secretion filtrate (Snail Secretion Filtrate) is a natural substance with exceptional skincare properties. Sourced ethically and safely for animals, it contains numerous active ingredients that effectively improve skin condition. The most important substances found in snail secretion include: Collagen and elastin Collagen and elastin are two key skin proteins responsible for firmness, elasticity, and tone. Collagen helps rebuild skin structure, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, while elastin provides skin with elasticity and helps it regain its proper shape after being stretched or tightened. Allantoin Allantoin is known for its soothing and regenerating properties. It effectively combats skin irritations, accelerates the healing process of minor wounds, reduces redness, and has anti-inflammatory properties. It is this allantoin that makes snail slime an ideal ingredient for sensitive, irritated, and allergy-prone skin. Glycolic acid Glycolic acid is a gentle, natural alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that exfoliates and smooths the skin. It helps remove dead skin cells, leaving skin smooth, radiant, and even-toned. Regular use of glycolic acid, found in snail slime, also helps reduce discoloration and combats skin imperfections such as acne scars. Mucopolysaccharides Mucopolysaccharides, polysaccharides with strong hygroscopic properties, have the ability to retain water in the skin, thus providing intense hydration. They have a protective effect, creating a delicate film on the skin's surface that prevents water loss and protects against external factors. As a result, the skin remains soft, moisturized, and supple for a long time. The combination of these active ingredients makes snail slime an exceptionally effective solution for all skin types—from dry and mature to sensitive and blemish-prone. Snail slime has been scientifically proven to accelerate skin healing and help combat scars, discoloration, and signs of aging. The best cosmetics with snail slime – what to look for?

We can reassure all those who care about the welfare of animals – the mucus is obtained without harming the snail. This is crucial to the creation of snail mucus cream, not only for ecological reasons, but also because only through gentle stimulation can the snail produce cryptosin – the cream's main ingredient. Therefore, no more than a teaspoon of mucus can be obtained at a time, which is then purified, standardized, and processed. Everything is done in compliance with sanitary requirements, ensuring that the snail mucus cream produced in this way is always of the highest quality. The best cosmetics with snail slime are the perfect solution for those seeking natural methods of skin regeneration and rejuvenation. Choose proven Orientana products and enjoy radiant skin.

Facial essence is a lightweight cosmetic with a liquid, gel, or slightly watery consistency, representing one of the key steps in conscious and effective skincare. Its main function is to deliver concentrated active ingredients that intensely moisturize, regenerate, and strengthen the skin. Thanks to its light formula, the essence absorbs very quickly , leaving no greasy or sticky film. Essences are often compared to toners or serums, but each of these products serves a different purpose in a skincare routine. While toners primarily restore the skin's proper pH and refresh it after cleansing, and serums target specific skin concerns (such as discoloration or wrinkles), essences focus primarily on intense hydration and strengthening the skin's natural protective barrier . This increases the skin's ability to absorb subsequent cosmetic products, such as serums, oils, or creams. The concept of facial essences stems from the Korean skincare philosophy known as layering skincare , which involves layering cosmetics of varying consistency and action. Each layer complements and enhances the effects of the next, ensuring optimal skincare results. In Korean culture, essences are considered the "heart" of a daily skincare routine—a key step that determines the effectiveness of the entire ritual. Ayurveda, the ancient Indian science of health and beauty, also offers an analogy to facial essences. These are revitalizing herbal elixirs designed to restore skin's harmony and prepare it for subsequent care. According to Ayurveda, the skin is a mirror of our inner health, and a carefully selected essence can restore its natural energy balance, ensuring a younger and more radiant appearance. Incorporating essences into your daily skincare ritual is a step towards conscious and comprehensive skincare, in line with both Korean and Ayurvedic beauty principles. How does the essence work and what effects does it give? Used regularly, this facial essence provides numerous benefits to the skin, stemming from the intensive, multifaceted action of its active ingredients. Thanks to its light consistency, the active ingredients easily penetrate deeper layers of the skin, ensuring effectiveness on multiple levels of care. Deep and lasting skin hydration The essence's primary purpose is to deeply hydrate the skin. Its formula is rich in humectants , highly moisturizing substances that have the ability to attract and retain water molecules in the epidermis. The most popular and effective include: Hyaluronic acid binds water molecules, retaining moisture even in the deepest layers of the epidermis. This hydrates the skin from within, and the moisturizing effect lasts longer. Glycerin – effectively retains water on the skin surface, protecting it from drying out. Trehalose – a natural sugar with protective properties that not only intensely moisturizes but also helps the skin regain its water balance. The effect of regular use of the essence is visibly hydrated, supple and elastic skin. Improving the absorption of active ingredients Moisturized skin better absorbs the ingredients contained in cosmetics applied in subsequent skincare steps. Regular use of essences increases the effectiveness of serums, creams, and oils. Essences prepare the skin for optimal absorption of active ingredients, maximizing their skincare potential. Strengthening the skin's hydrolipid barrier The essence is rich in ingredients that regenerate the skin's natural protective barrier – the hydrolipid barrier. This provides better protection against external factors (pollution, smog, air conditioning, and UV radiation) and transepidermal water loss (TEWL). Among the most commonly used ingredients to strengthen the skin barrier are: Plant ferments – e.g. yeast ferments or rice ferments, which regenerate and balance the skin's microbiome, strengthening its natural protective mechanisms. Amino acids – ingredients naturally occurring in the skin that strengthen the structure of the epidermis and improve its resistance to dryness and irritation. Phytoextracts – e.g. plant extracts rich in antioxidants that support the regeneration of the protective barrier and soothe inflammation. The effect of using the essence is stronger, healthier and more resistant skin, less susceptible to dryness and irritation. "Glow", smoothing and rejuvenating effect Regularly used, this essence improves the appearance and condition of the skin, giving it a distinctive " glow " effect—a subtle, natural glow. Thanks to its high concentration of nutrients, the skin becomes noticeably firmer , softer , smoother, and more radiant . The essence also helps reduce fine lines, improving overall skin texture and making it look younger and healthier. To sum up, regular use of facial essence gives the following effects: Intensively moisturized and nourished skin, Improved absorption of active ingredients from subsequent cosmetics, Strengthened and rebuilt hydrolipid barrier , Visibly smoother , firmer and more radiant skin. Thanks to these properties, the essence is a perfect complement to conscious and comprehensive care for all skin types.

ACNE SCARS? TRY A CREAM WITH SNAIL SLIME
Acne scars are a common dermatological problem that can significantly affect self-esteem and quality of life. One natural ingredient that can help reduce these scars is snail slime. In this article, we will discuss how snail slime can help treat acne scars and other methods to reduce them. Acne Scars - Causes and Types Acne scars are the result of inflammation that leads to damage to skin tissue. They form during the healing process of the skin when the body produces excess or deficiency of collagen. Acne scars are permanent and can significantly affect the appearance of the skin, causing aesthetic discomfort. There are different types of scars, including concave, convex, and linear. Types of Acne Scars Acne scars are permanent changes in the skin structure, resulting from impaired healing of acne-related inflammation. Their appearance and depth depend on many factors, such as the severity of acne, genetic predisposition, care method, and mechanical interference, such as squeezing or scratching the lesions. In cosmetology, there are several types of acne scars, each of which requires an individual therapeutic approach. The most common are concave, or atrophic, scars, which are formed as a result of the loss of collagen and elastic skin fibers at the site of healing inflammation. There are three main types in this group: "ice pick" scars - narrow, deep and resembling pinpricks, "boxcar" scars - wider, with clearly marked edges and a rectangular shape, and "rolling" scars - with a wavy surface, which cause unevenness of the skin and are the result of tissue adhesions in the deeper layers of the skin. The second type are raised scars, or hypertrophic scars, and keloids. They are caused by excessive collagen synthesis during the healing process, which leads to the scar being raised above the skin surface. Hypertrophic scars are usually limited to the site of the original injury, while keloids can grow beyond its boundaries. These types of changes are more often observed in people who are prone to scarring, especially in the chest, back, and jaw area. The last category is linear scars, which are caused by mechanical damage to the skin, most often by scratching or improper removal of acne lesions. These types of scars take the form of thin, longitudinal lines and can be shallow or deeper, depending on the intensity of the injury. Accurate assessment of the type of acne scars is crucial in selecting appropriate cosmetic and dermatological treatments, such as microneedling, chemical peels, laser therapy or hyaluronic acid treatments. Each type of acne scar requires an individual therapeutic approach, taking into account the skin structure and the degree of advancement of changes. Acne Scars - Can They Be Prevented? Preventing acne scars is possible, but requires a conscious and consistent approach to skin care and a quick response to emerging inflammatory changes. The key is to treat acne appropriately at an early stage - the sooner the inflammatory process is stopped, the lower the risk of damaging the deeper layers of the skin, and therefore acne scars may not occur. One of the most common mistakes that contribute to scarring is mechanical removal of lesions – squeezing, scratching or pressing on immature pimples. Such actions can lead to damage to the skin structure, secondary bacterial infections and more intense inflammation, which significantly increases the risk of scarring, especially in the forehead, back or jaw area. Additionally, a key preventative factor is thorough facial cleansing. If you use SPF or wear makeup, a double cleanse is essential. Two-step facial cleansing is a method that originates from Asian care rituals and has also gained recognition in European cosmetology. Its effectiveness is based on the precise removal of impurities soluble in both fats and water, without disturbing the natural hydrolipid barrier of the skin. The first stage of cleansing is based on the use of an oil-based product – this can be Golden Orange oil. Lipid substances effectively dissolve sebum, makeup, sunscreens and environmental pollutants that accumulate on the skin's surface during the day. The cosmetic is spread with dry hands on dry facial skin, gently massaging, and then rinsed off with warm water or removed with a damp cloth. The second step involves using a water-based product – most often a gel or foam. This step removes any oily product residue and water-soluble impurities, such as sweat, dust and smog particles. A well-chosen water-based product should cleanse effectively but gently, without causing dryness or a feeling of tightness. In scar prevention, daily, well-chosen care of acne skin is extremely important. Cosmetics should have anti-inflammatory, regulating and regenerative effects, while not irritating or drying the skin. Ingredients such as niacinamide, zinc, azelaic acid or panthenol can soothe inflammation and support healing processes without overstimulating the sebaceous glands. It is also worth considering a gentle enzymatic peeling, such as Kali Musli Peeling, which will help remove dead skin cells, smooth the skin surface and improve the absorption of active ingredients from cosmetics. The peeling should be performed 1-2 times a week, avoiding irritation of skin affected by active inflammation. In the case of moderate or severe acne, a dermatologist consultation and pharmacological treatment may be necessary. Anti-inflammatory drugs, retinoids, topical or oral antibiotics can effectively control the lesions before they develop into permanent skin lesions. Early therapeutic intervention significantly reduces the risk of scarring complications. Snail Slime - Active Ingredient for Acne Scars Snail slime is one of the most valued ingredients in regenerative cosmetology, especially recommended for skin care with acne scars. Its rich biological composition means that it has a multifaceted effect: it supports healing, improves skin texture, reduces the visibility of scars and discolorations, and restores a healthy appearance to the skin. One of the key ingredients of snail slime is allantoin, which has strong soothing and regenerative properties. It accelerates the healing process of micro-damages in the epidermis, supports tissue reconstruction and makes acne scars less visible. Additionally, it has anti-inflammatory effects, which is particularly important in the care of skin prone to acne. Glycolic acid, present in snail slime, is a natural alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that gently exfoliates dead skin cells. This facilitates the process of cell renewal, lightens acne discolorations and smoothes the skin's texture. Its action improves the skin's color and texture, making it more uniform and radiant. Additionally, snail slime contains collagen and elastin, structural proteins responsible for skin elasticity, firmness and elasticity. Their presence supports repair processes in the deeper layers of the skin and increases its resistance to the formation of new scars and defects. Thanks to the synergy of these ingredients, snail slime works comprehensively - it not only soothes and regenerates, but also improves the appearance of skin with imperfections. Regular use of preparations containing this ingredient can significantly reduce the visibility of acne scars and restore the skin's smoothness and healthy color. Application of Snail Slime in Removing Scars Snail slime is used in the form of creams and ointments. Regular use can improve skin texture, moisturize it and gradually reduce acne scars. The Orientana Cream with Snail Slime works very well, where in addition to snail slime (Snail Secretion Filtrate), which has a strong regenerating function and supports the reduction of acne scars, the cosmetic contains many other active substances with a beneficial effect on the condition of the skin. Boerhavia Diffusa Root Extract is an extract from the root of the punarnawa, has a soothing, brightening and anti-inflammatory effect. Reduces redness and supports an even skin tone. Sodium Hyaluronate - a salt of hyaluronic acid, strongly moisturizes, smoothes the skin and supports regenerative processes. Helps maintain elasticity and firmness. Camellia Kissi Seed Oil - camellia seed oil, rich in antioxidants and unsaturated fatty acids. Supports regeneration, protects against water loss and has anti-aging effects. The cream's composition is rich in moisturizing, regenerating, soothing and antioxidant substances, which together support the process of rebuilding skin with imperfections, including acne scars. Thanks to the synergy of snail slime with natural oils, plant extracts and active substances, the product works comprehensively, improving the texture, color and overall condition of the skin. acne scars - home remedies Acne scars are a common aesthetic problem, and at home you can use natural ingredients and proven techniques that support the regeneration process of the epidermis, lighten discolorations and improve the skin's structure. One of the most popular substances used in home care is fresh aloe, which has soothing, moisturizing and regenerating effects. Aloe gel contains vitamins, enzymes and amino acids that support skin healing and help even out skin tone. Regular use of fresh aloe leaf gel or a ready-made preparation can bring visible results in lightening fresh scars. Another effective ingredient is honey, especially raw or manuka, which has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and regenerative properties. It can be used as a mask or spot on acne scars – it improves skin elasticity, aids healing and gently lightens acne discolorations. In home care, it is also worth using lemon juice or apple cider vinegar, which, thanks to the fruit acids contained, gently exfoliate dead skin and lighten acne spots. However, they should be used with caution, because they can irritate sensitive skin. Always wash them off after a few minutes and use sunscreen during the day to avoid secondary discoloration. Vegetable oils, such as rosehip oil, tamanu oil or carrot seed oil, are natural sources of vitamins, unsaturated fatty acids and antioxidants. They support skin regeneration, improve its structure and color, and at the same time soothe irritations. They can be used alone or as an addition to homemade masks. Home methods can be an effective supplement to daily care and support the regeneration of skin with acne scars, but they require systematicity and patience. The effects appear gradually, so it is worth using them regularly and in combination with well-chosen cosmetic care. When acne scars are deep, it is recommended to consult a cosmetologist or dermatologist to choose an effective specialist therapy. Acne scars - removal with professional methods In addition to home care methods that can support the skin regeneration process, in the case of more established or deep acne scars, it is worth reaching for professional treatment methods. Modern therapies are available in a cosmetology or dermatology office that can effectively reduce the visibility of scars, improve the skin texture and restore its uniform color. Acne scars are effectively reduced by laser therapy. It involves precise damage to the skin's microlayers using a beam of light, which stimulates intensive production of collagen and elastin and starts regeneration processes. Depending on the type of scars and skin type, ablative lasers (e.g. CO₂) or non-ablative lasers (e.g. fractional) are used. The treatment leads to gradual smoothing of scars and leveling of the skin surface. Microneedle radiofrequency (RF microneedle) combines the action of microneedles with the energy of radio waves. The needles penetrate deep layers of the skin, delivering heat to the tissues and stimulating intensive collagen reconstruction. This treatment effectively improves skin firmness, smoothes its structure and reduces depressions and unevenness caused by acne scars. It is a safe method with a short recovery time. Mesoter a pia is a procedure that involves the introduction of active substances into the skin – such as hyaluronic acid, vitamins, amino acids or biomimetic peptides – using micro-injections. This therapy improves skin hydration, nourishment and elasticity, and also supports its regeneration. Regular mesotherapy sessions can help smooth out minor scars and improve the overall condition of the skin. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous method that uses plasma obtained from the patient's blood. It is rich in growth factors that strongly stimulate tissue regeneration, collagen synthesis and cellular reconstruction. This treatment is especially recommended for people looking for natural methods of skin renewal, including in the case of more difficult to eliminate acne scars. Professional treatments should be selected individually, depending on the type of scars, skin condition and expected results. In many cases, the best results are achieved by combining several methods as part of a combined therapy. Regular treatments and cooperation with an experienced cosmetology or dermatology specialist are the key to success in the fight against acne scars. The choice of method depends on the type of scars, their severity, and the individual needs of the person suffering from acne scars. If acne scars cannot be reduced with care, it is worth consulting a dermatologist to choose the most effective solution.
