Acne Scar Treatment
What are Acne Scar Treatments?
Acne is one of the most common skin concerns, affecting individuals of all ages. While active acne can be frustrating, the scars it leaves behind can have a lasting impact on self-confidence. As a plastic surgeon, we offer advanced treatments tailored to address both active acne and its scars, helping you achieve smooth, radiant skin.
Advanced Acne Scar Treatments
- Microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma): Microneedling creates micro-injuries to stimulate collagen production, while PRP enhances healing and accelerates skin rejuvenation. This combination is highly effective for atrophic scars and overall skin health.
- Chemical Peels: Customized chemical peels exfoliate the top layers of the skin, reducing pigmentation and shallow scars. Peels also improve overall skin texture and clarity.
- Dermal Fillers: Injectable fillers restore volume to depressed scars, offering an immediate improvement in skin smoothness. They are a quick, minimally invasive option for treating deeper atrophic scars.
- Subcision: This minimally invasive procedure breaks down fibrous scar tissue beneath the skin, releasing tethered scars and encouraging natural collagen production.
Excisional Scar Revision: For severe scars, surgical scar revision removes damaged tissue, creating a smoother, more even appearance. This method is ideal for icepick or deep boxcar scars.
Understanding Acne
Acne develops when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria, leading to inflammation. Factors like hormonal changes, stress, diet, and genetics can exacerbate acne. Without proper treatment, moderate to severe acne can leave scars, including:
- Atrophic scars: Depressions in the skin such as icepick, boxcar, or rolling scars.
- Hypertrophic scars: Raised scars due to excessive collagen production.
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH): Dark spots caused by healed acne.
Active Acne Management
We also offer solutions for ongoing acne to prevent future scarring, such as:
- Medical-grade skincare tailored to your needs.
- Oral and topical treatments prescribed to manage acne.
