Clear Skin Ahead: How Candela Sublative Treats Acne Scars Safely and Effectively
Acne scars can be frustrating, especially when they linger long after breakouts are gone. If you’re searching for a non-invasive, effective treatment for acne scars, Candela Sublative™ skin resurfacing might be the solution you’ve been looking for.
This advanced radiofrequency (RF) technology is designed to target skin texture, tone, and scarring—without the downtime associated with aggressive laser treatments.
What Is Candela Sublative?
Candela Sublative Rejuvenation is a fractional bipolar radiofrequency (RF) treatment that stimulates collagen production and improves skin quality from the inside out. Unlike traditional ablative lasers, Sublative delivers energy beneath the skin’s surface, leaving the top layer mostly intact.
This makes it ideal for:
- Acne scars
- Enlarged pores
- Fine lines
- Sun damage
- Uneven skin tone or texture
How Does Candela Sublative Work on Acne Scars?
Acne scars—especially atrophic or indented scars—form when collagen is lost during the skin’s healing process. Candela Sublative uses fractionated RF energy to deliver heat deep into the dermis, where it triggers collagen and elastin production. As your skin repairs itself, it begins to fill in pitted scars and smooth out uneven texture.
Benefits of Sublative for Acne Scarring:
✅ Stimulates natural skin healing
✅ Safe for all skin types, including darker tones
✅ Minimal downtime (1–3 days of redness or mild flaking)
✅ Visible improvement in just 3–5 sessions
✅ Treats both scarring and early signs of aging
What to Expect During Treatment
A typical Candela Sublative session takes 20–30 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Here’s what you can expect:
- Pre-treatment: Your skin is cleansed, and a numbing cream may be applied.
- Treatment: The handheld device delivers controlled RF pulses in a grid pattern.
- Post-treatment: You may experience redness, warmth, or slight swelling similar to a mild sunburn for 2-5 days. Most patients return to normal activities within 1–2 days.
When Will You See Results?
While some improvement is noticeable after the first session, optimal results typically appear after 3–5 treatments, spaced about 4–6 weeks apart. Over the following months, your skin will continue to produce new collagen, leading to smoother, firmer, more even-toned skin.
Is Candela Sublative Safe for All Skin Types?
Yes! One of the key advantages of Sublative RF technology is that it’s safe and effective for all skin tones, including Fitzpatrick skin types IV–VI. Because the energy bypasses the outer skin layers, there’s a lower risk of hyperpigmentation compared to traditional lasers.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Candela Sublative is ideal for people who:
- Have mild to moderate acne scars
- Want visible results with minimal downtime
- Prefer a non-ablative, non-laser approach
- Are not currently experiencing active acne
Not sure if it’s right for you? A qualified skincare professional can assess your skin and recommend a personalized treatment plan.
