1 Introduction While clinically characterized by inflammatory lesions, acne vulgaris carries a significant psychosocial impact that extends beyond its dermatological manifestations, particularly in the domains of emotions, daily activities, social interactions, work/study, and interpersonal relationships [1]. This impact on quality of life (QoL) is substantial, with studies indicating that acne can be as debilitating as severe chronic illnesses like asthma, epilepsy, and back pain [2, 3].

To the Editor, Over time, the breakdown of collagen and elastin in the dermis leads to a decrease in elasticity and volume. Clinically, this can contribute to wrinkles, rough texture, and laxity. The demand for noninvasive skin tightening continues to grow [1, 2]. In our study, histological analysis confirmed an increase in collagen and elastic fiber especially in the mid dermis after high-intensity, parallel ultrasound (HIPS) tightening (Sofwave, SofWave Medical Ltd., Israel).
