Acne scars are more than just annoying blemishes on your skin; they tell a story of the challenges of overcoming acne, which leaves behind physical and emotional traces of the damage. Lingering scars, even long after the battle against acne is over and you’ve healed, can be so frustrating, not just negatively altering the texture and tone of your skin, but your self-confidence.
At Cultura, we specialize in advanced acne scar treatments designed to safely improve tone and texture for all skin types and tones. Our proprietary Texture Rejuvenation™ system combines cutting-edge lasers, skincare, and personalized protocols to help restore smoother, healthier-looking skin.
What Is Texture Rejuvenation™?
Texture Rejuvenation™ is Cultura’s trademarked, multi-modal approach to treating acne scars, surgical scars, traumatic scars, raised scar tissue, enlarged pores, and overall skin texture concerns. It’s designed to significantly improve skin quality—often to the point where makeup becomes optional.
This customized protocol combines advanced technologies and dermatological therapies to target both visible scarring and underlying causes. Each plan is tailored to your skin’s specific needs and goals.
Your treatment plan may include:
- Laser and energy-based device treatments
- Mild or medium-depth chemical peels
- Microdermabrasion
- Collagen induction therapy (e.g., microneedling)
- HydraFacial® treatments
- Prescription skincare
- Topical ingredients like tranexamic acid and high-strength hydroquinone
In addition to treating existing scars and texture issues, Texture Rejuvenation™ also helps prevent future acne scarring by supporting healthier skin regeneration.
