Read moreAcne and Acne Scar Treatment involves a variety of treatments designed to address both the active acne lesions and the scars left behind. Acne can occur due to various factors, including hormonal changes, genetics, clogged pores, and inflammation, while acne scars form as a result of the skin healing after an acne breakout. Both conditions can be treated using non-invasive to minimally invasive procedures.
Acne is a common skin problem that often requires medical attention. At the Cityklinikka, acne is treated with a laser and chemical peels.

Aknen kaikista syistä ei ole olemassa vielä tieteellisesti todennettua faktaa. Ihotautilääkäreillä on kuitenkin yhteisymmärrys prosessista, jonka seurauksena akne syntyy. Aknepotilaita yhdistävät yleensä nämä kaksi asiaa:
Miksi sitten ihmisen iho tuottaa ylenmäärin talia, tai miksi ihon normaalifloora horjuu? Ihonhoidon ammattilaiset ovat löytäneet joitakin yksittäisiä tekijöitä, jotka saattavat vaikuttaa talintuotantoon ja bakteerien epätasapainoon:
Akne syntyy, kun ihohuokoset ovat tukkeutuneet ja huokosten bakteerikanta lisääntyy. Stressitilassa elimistö – myös iho – tulehtuu jonkin verran, ja tulehdus puolestaan saattaa johtaa huokosten seinämien hajoamiseen. Tulehdus ja ihon rikkoutuminen näkyy ihossa näppylöinä ja finneinä.
Stressaantuneen ihmisen kehossa lisämunuaiset ovat ylikierroksilla, jolloin kehossa on normaalia enemmän mieshormoneja. Varsinkin naisten ihossa mieshormonit saattavat aiheuttaa talin liikatuotantoa.
Usein stressin väheneminen rauhoittaa akneihon toimintaa. Tämän vuoksi aknepotilaille suositellaan stressiä vähentäviä harrastuksia, esim. maltillista liikuntaa. Unen määrä ja laatu saattavat nekin lievittää akneongelmia.
Luultavasti ei. Pieni osa ihotautien ammattilaisista on kuitenkin sitä mieltä, että suklaansyönti ja akne ovat yhteydessä toisiinsa.
Joidenkin tutkijoiden mukaan akne saattaa parantua, jos potilas tekee muutoksia ruokavalioonsa. Esimerkiksi vihreän teen ja mustikoiden sisältämät antioksidantit saattavat lievittää aknea. Myös maitotuotteiden ja hiilihydraattien rajoittamisen sanotaan joskus toimivan akneihon hoidossa.
Kyse on kuitenkin olettamuksista ja teorioista enemmän kuin tieteellisesti osoitetuista tosiasioista.
Ihmiset ovat erilaisia. Osa ihmisistä kokee aknen ja aknearvet häiritseviksi. Osaa ihomuutokset eivät haittaa lainkaan. Jos akne heikentää elämänlaatua, sitä kannattaa hoitaa. Hoidon tarvetta ei kannata vähätellä.
Usein akne jättää iholle pysyviä arpia. Aknen hoitaminen on helpompaa kuin aknearpien hoitaminen. Akneihosta kärsivän on hyvä hakeutua lääkärin vastaanotolle siinä vaiheessa, kun kotikonstit eivät riitä.
Hoito saatetaan aloittaa kokeilemalla tretinoiinivoiteita ja/tai systeemisesti vaikuttavia lääkkeitä. Näillä saattaa kuitenkin olla hankaliakin sivuvaikutuksia. Tämän vuoksi mm. Cityklinikalla akneihoa hoidetaan pääasiassa laservalolla, radiotaajuusenergialla ja kemiallisilla kuorinnoilla. Nämä hoitavat ihoa paikallisesti aiheuttamatta muutoksia muualla elimistössä.
Aknearvet ovat merkki siitä, että ihon paranemisprosesseissa on häiriöitä. Terveen ihon parantuessa tulehduksesta tai vauriosta elimistö valmistaa uutta kollageenia. Kun paranemisprosessissa on häiriötekijöitä, kollageenia syntyy liikaa tai liian vähän.
Mikäli ihossa syntyy liikaa kollageenia, arvet nousevat koholle. Jos kollageenia syntyy liian vähän, arvet ovat lähinnä ihossa olevia kuoppia. Jos kollageenintuotanto on tasapainossa, iho toipuu aknesta ajan myötä eikä ihoon muodostu aknearpia.
Aknearpien laserhoidossa laservaloa viedään hoidettavan alueen kudokseen. Laservalo hajottaa arpikudosta ja auttaa elimistöä tuottamaan arpeutuneen kudoksen tilalle uutta, tervettä ihoa.
Se riippuu, millä menetelmällä arpia tasoitetaan. Kaikkein tehokkain toimenpiteemme on Twinlight-laserhoito, jolla saadaan tuloksia jo yhdellä hoitokerralla. On kuitenkin ymmärrettävä, että erittäin tehokkaiden laserhoitojen kääntöpuolena on pitkähkö toipumisaika. Jos pitkä toipumisaika ei sovi potilaan kuvioihin, aknearvet voidaan hoitaa esimerkiksi laserhoitosarjalla. Tällöin hoito toteutetaan 3–8 kerran sarjana. Sarjahoidolla saadaan erinomaisia tuloksia, mutta toipumiseen ei tarvitse varata aikaa.
Jos aknearvet ovat ongelmasi, hoidon suunnittelu kannattaa aloittaa maksuttomasta konsultaatiossa, jossa ammattilainen kertoo erilaisista hoitomahdollisuuksista. Aknearpien hoito räätälöidään jokaisen potilaan tarpeiden ja tilanteen mukaan.
Aknearpia voidaan tasoittaa tehokkaasti myös radiotaajuusavusteisella Fractora-hoidolla. Fractoran tehoa voidaan säädellä. Suuritehoinen Fractora-hoito vaatii muutaman päivän toipumisajan. Se aiheuttaa myös hiukan enemmän kipua kuin kevyt Fractora-hoito. Toisaalta suurilla tehoilla saadaan myös parempia lopputuloksia jo yhden hoidon jälkeen.
Fractora- ja laserhoidot ovat parhaita vaihtoehtoja aknearpien tasoittamiseen.
Cityklinikalla aknearpia hoidetaan jonkin verran myös kemiallisilla kuorinnoilla sekä injektiotoimenpiteillä. Kysymykseen tulevat esimerkiksi seuraavat:
