Texture and scars need controlled dermal injury

Acne scarring, enlarged pores, and uneven texture persist long after active breakouts resolve. Fort McMurray patients often arrive after topical regimens plateau, seeking physician-led energy that reaches scar depth without full ablative laser downtime.

EXION combines monopolar radiofrequency with single-pass microneedle delivery or non-insulated Clear RF modes. Energy depth adjusts per scar morphology, skin type, and downtime tolerance. Treatment stimulates collagen rearrangement and smoothing over a series of sessions.

ReNueva physicians may sequence EXION after active acne is controlled, alongside EVERESSE for laxity or HELIX for deeper resurfacing when indicated. Scar improvement is gradual; complete elimination is not guaranteed.

Microneedle RF and Clear RF modes

Microneedles create microchannels while RF heats surrounding dermis, targeting scar walls and pore margins. Clear RF mode heats dermis without needles for patients needing less downtime. AI-assisted impedance monitoring helps standardize energy delivery.

How sessions work

  • Adjustable depth for rolling, boxcar, and ice-pick scars
  • Face, neck, and body acne scar protocols
  • Series of three to four treatments spaced weeks apart
  • Topical anesthesia commonly used for comfort

Texture clinical applications

Acne scar revision

Improve rolling and boxcar scars when depth mapping shows dermal deficit.

Enlarged pores and oily texture

RF shrink-wraps pore margins and sebaceous gland contribution over series.

Fine lines and mild laxity

Collagen boost for perioral and cheek texture when ablative laser is not desired.

Neck and decollete crepe

Lower energy protocols for thin neck skin.

Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation caution

Physicians tailor settings for melanin-rich skin to balance efficacy and safety.
