The end of breakouts does not always mean the end of skin troubles. Scars and persistent redness can be a daily reminder of past acne.
Dr. Jack G. Bertolino, a board-certified physician with more than 15 years of experience in cosmetic and functional medicine, offers Sylfirm at Smooth Solutions Medical Aesthetics in Williamsville. This treatment pairs microneedling with radiofrequency to work on both scars and redness at once. Many patients from Buffalo and the surrounding area tell us their results go beyond what they expected.
Why Acne Scars and Redness Hang Around
Indented scars form when your skin doesn’t produce enough healthy collagen during the healing process. In other cases, excess collagen can create raised scars.
Redness may linger due to ongoing inflammation, visible capillaries, or chronic skin conditions like rosacea.
Acne scars and redness affect your skin on a deeper level, which is why topical creams and serums often fall short. They can improve the surface temporarily, but they can’t repair damaged collagen or shrink dilated vessels the way advanced treatments can.
How Sylfirm Works
Sylfirm combines tiny microneedles with radiofrequency energy to stimulate fresh collagen while also targeting problem blood vessels and pigmentation. That means it can help smooth out the surface of your skin and tone down redness in the same session.
Most treatments are quick, and while you might see some mild redness or swelling for a day or two, downtime is usually short. You can expect to start seeing changes in a few weeks, with results improving as your skin naturally rebuilds collagen.
What You Can Expect From Treatment
You may notice your skin feels smoother, pores look smaller, and your tone looks more even. Redness can fade, and scars can start to be less noticeable. Sylfirm works well for a variety of skin types, so you do not have to wonder if it is right for you. Results appear gradually, so your skin looks naturally refreshed rather than suddenly different.
