Does Ematrix Help Reduce Acne Scar and Tighten the Pores?

Our office uses Ematrix as one of four treatments for acne scars and we have seen very positive results to date. Ematrix can tighten pores and reduce the appearance of acne scars. We usually use it in combination with Melapeels and facial chemical peels. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Santa Monica

eMatrix is used effectively in patients with olive skin or dark skin as the technology is sublative. We use eMatrix in our Williamsville office and have had great success in treating certain types of acne scars. Best,Dr. Karamanoukian

I think
Ematrix is an excellent treatment to improve acne scarring. There was recently
a study comparing Ematrix to Fraxel for acne scar improvement and they
concluded that they both produced the same amount of improvement.

For Olive toned patients I prefer to use Ematrix. The Ematrix system
uses Sublative RF- fractioned bi-polar radio frequency technology to effectively
place heat energy into the dermis. This causes deep dermal impact with minimal
down time. The reason I choose the Ematrix is because the RF technology is safe
and effective for all skin types. Though I have done Fraxel treatments on Olive
skin, it does have the possibility for hyperpigmentation unlike the Ematrix.
The Ematrix treatments can improve all of your concerns with a series of
treatments. It is best to consult with a Board Certified Dermatologist to see
if this treatment is best for you and how many sessions you will need.
