We looked into how a new treatment combining hyaluronic acid with a peptide from fibroblast growth factor 2 could help combat acne. This method targets specific receptors involved in acne development, showing promise by reducing both acne lesions and excess oil production in lab tests. Importantly, our study revealed that this treatment does not encourage certain reactions that would typically hinder acne management. While the results are positive, we acknowledge that ongoing research is necessary for further confirmation of these findings.

We explored the effectiveness of a high-concentration (4.5%) hyaluronic acid filler designed to treat facial acne scars. Participants received two treatments, and we evaluated improvements after four months.
Notably, patients experienced a 12% improvement in scar severity shortly after treatment and a significant 31% improvement after four months. The skin's depth measurement also showed a 20% reduction in acne scar deepness with no serious side effects reported.
These promising results suggest that this hyaluronic acid formulation could be a valuable option for individuals seeking to improve their acne scarring.

In our exploration of treating atrophic acne scars, we focused on the effects of different microneedling depths using Dermapen. We designed a split-face study involving 14 individuals, where each side of their face received a different treatment depth over six sessions, spaced two weeks apart.
On one side, the needles penetrated 2.5 mm into the skin, while the other side used 1.5 mm. We observed a noticeable difference in the improvement of scars, with the deeper 2.5 mm treatment showing significantly better results both clinically and at a cellular level.
The findings suggest that deeper microneedling might foster better collagen induction, which is crucial for skin repair. Both treatments improved collagen and elastin fibers, but the more profound impact from the deeper needles highlights how penetration depth might be a key factor in achieving effective results in scar management.

I will not lie! I noticed more positive feedback on this site, which seems odd. I took this drug for about six months with a break and then started again. I didn’t notice any effect. The only change was that my acne went away. I disposed of the jar!

This product has been fantastic for me thus far. While using acne medication that tends to dry my skin, this supplement has greatly helped. My acne seems to be improving, and I adore the glow and tautness it gives my skin. It's a delightful bonus that my knees feel much better as well!

Promising treatment for acne scars
We examined how needle-free electronic pneumatic injections of hyaluronic acid could treat facial acne scars. In a carefully designed study, thirty Japanese participants received treatments on one side of their face, with follow-ups conducted for three months after completing three sessions.
Remarkably, 48.3% of the treated sides showed significant improvement, while none of the untreated sides did. Participants reported high satisfaction rates and the results were confirmed by imaging analysis. Overall, this treatment demonstrated promising effects on rolling acne scars with minimal side effects.

Hyaluronic acid shows scar improvement
This study explored the effectiveness of using hyaluronic acid filler alongside subcision for treating post-acne scars.
In a controlled trial with 40 participants, we observed that both the subcision combined with hyaluronic acid and with fractional CO laser treatments showed significant improvements.
However, when comparing the two enhanced methods, neither was found to be statistically better than the other. Importantly, subcision alone still provided some improvement, even if modest. Overall, combining these treatments appears beneficial without serious side effects.

We evaluated the impact of combining subcision with hyaluronic acid (HA) on atrophic acne scars. Forty patients received subcision treatments over three sessions, followed by either HA or threads on one side of the face, while the other side served as a control.
The results showed that after 6 months, 94.1% of patients in the HA group experienced significant improvement compared to 67.3% with subcision alone. Patient satisfaction was notably higher for those who received the combined treatment. Side effects were mild and temporary, making this combination a promising option for better scar management.

Real good!! The instructions advised me to take two tablets a day. I felt a bit uncomfortable with the capsule but noticed a good side effect—my painful acne has eased, and the large areas on my forehead have improved significantly.

Surprised by results
39 people found this helpful
After almost two months of use, I was taken aback by the results. When I initially started, I did not expect such a dramatic improvement in my skin, specifically regarding acne scars and general texture. The transformation is reminiscent of a professional treatment, and I could hardly believe how different my skin appears. The spots have significantly diminished, leaving my complexion radiant and healthier.

Dramatic effect achieved
This product made a significant difference to my skin in the two months since I repurchased it! My original skin condition was quite dry with noticeable acne. After starting this, I noticed a dramatic effect, and even others commented that my skin appeared clearer and firmer! It's now much smoother to the touch!

Skin problems resolved

I did not feel it suited me. After drinking it for a month, I experienced skin problems like acne and red spots, which cleared up after I stopped. I won't experiment anymore and will stick to usual vitamins from the pharmacy.

Acne reduced
2 people found this helpful
I've repurchased this product three times because I cannot live without it. I've observed fewer acne breakouts and smoother skin since using it. The benefits, such as reduced wrinkles post-25, have been gradual but noteworthy. I truly appreciate its quality and ease of use.

Hyaluronic acid gel shows promise
We investigated a unique hyaluronic acid gel, combined with hydrogen peroxide and glycine, to treat mild to moderate acne. Over 8 weeks, 40 participants applied the gel multiple times a day and were frequently evaluated.
Although the results indicated some clinical benefits in reducing acne lesions and improving skin quality, they suggest this treatment might be best used alongside retinoids. Importantly, the product showed a good safety profile, although it may not be a standalone solution for everyone.

We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of microneedling alone compared to microneedling combined with hyaluronic acid in treating acne scars.
After conducting treatment on 60 patients, we observed that while most experienced moderate improvement, those receiving the combination treatment reported better outcomes, including “good” and “very good” results.
This procedure is straightforward and can be performed in various settings, with hyaluronic acid significantly boosting the results of microneedling alone.

We examined how well hyaluronic acid (HA)—both non-crosslinked and crosslinked—works for treating aesthetic skin issues, including acne scars. In our analysis of 115 patient records, both HA types produced notable improvements in skin appearance with minimal side effects. Patients reported high satisfaction levels and experienced improvements that averaged around 1.7 on the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale. Interestingly, both forms of HA had a similar longevity in results, lasting around 13 months. This study highlights the promise of HA in tackling acne-related concerns, offering effective and safe treatment options.
