Acne scars can stick around long after breakouts have calmed down. If uneven texture is something you’ve been wanting to work on, Procell Microchanneling may be worth exploring.
The Procell device creates tiny channels in the skin. It’s designed to help deliver serums deeper into the skin while encouraging its natural renewal process. The treatment is paired with a growth factor serum and DNA repair enzymes. Growth factors are proteins involved in skin repair, and they work alongside the skin’s renewal response. Procell’s growth factor serum is one of the key parts of the treatment. Growth factors are proteins that act like messengers, helping cells communicate during the skin’s natural repair and renewal processes. The serum also contains cytokines, another type of signaling protein involved in cell communication. DNA repair enzymes help improve the visible signs of sun damage, softening the appearance of sun spots, uneven tone, and dullness.
Together, the microchanneling and serum support the skin’s renewal response and collagen production. That’s why Procell may be used to improve the appearance of concerns like acne scars, uneven texture, fine lines, and discoloration over time.
Over time, Procell may help improve the look of acne scars, uneven texture, fine lines, and discoloration. It’s especially popular for acne scarring because it can soften the appearance of certain textural scars. Results take time and can vary depending on the type of scarring and your skin, so talk to your provider to see if it’s a good fit for your skin goals.
After your appointment, your skin may look pink or feel warm, tight, or sensitive. That usually settles within hours to a day. Procell provides less downtime than traditional microneedling. Keep your routine gentle while your skin recovers. For the first 24 hours, avoid makeup, workouts, excess heat, and direct sun. Hold off on retinoids and exfoliating acids until your provider says it’s okay to use them again. Your aftercare instructions may be adjusted for your skin and treatment.
Procell isn’t an overnight fix, but with a thoughtful plan and consistent aftercare, it can be one way to support a smoother looking complexion.
