I have done 3 rounds of the micro needling Rf for my acne scars and have seen an improvement, but I hear that profound is more effective for acne scars. I wanted to know the difference. If profound is more effective I will switch over.

Answer: Profound for acne scars Profound works to create new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. I haven't found that it's particularly effective in treating acne scars because we use it at much deeper depths than this - like a non-surgical facelift. For patients with acne scarring I recommend InMode Fractora, which is a radio frequency device combined with microneedling. It's much more effective than microneedling alone, but targets more superficial levels where scarring is.
