Using cutting-edge FDA-cleared technologies and natural healing approaches, we help you achieve the clear, radiant complexion you deserve.
Understanding Facial Acne Scars
Acne scars form when inflammatory acne damages the skin’s deeper layers, disrupting the normal healing process. These scars can significantly impact your appearance and self-esteem, but with proper treatment, dramatic improvement is possible.
Types of Acne Scars We Treat:
Atrophic Scars (Depressed Scars):
- Ice Pick Scars: Deep, narrow scars that extend into the dermis
- Boxcar Scars: Wider, rectangular depressions with defined edges
- Rolling Scars: Wide depressions with sloping edges that create wave-like texture
Hypertrophic Scars:
- Raised scars that form when too much collagen is produced during healing
- Most common on the chest, back, and jawline areas
Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation:
- Dark spots or discoloration left behind after acne heals
- More common in individuals with darker skin tones

Comprehensive Acne Scar Treatment Approach
Personalized Assessment
Every acne scar treatment begins with a thorough evaluation of your scarring pattern, skin type, and individual goals. We identify the types of scars present and develop a customized treatment plan.
Multi-Modal Treatment Strategy
We often combine multiple technologies in a comprehensive approach to address different aspects of acne scarring – from deep tissue remodeling to surface texture improvement.
Progressive Treatment Protocol
Acne scar improvement is typically achieved through a series of treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart, allowing your skin to heal and regenerate between sessions.
Natural Healing Enhancement
Our treatments work with your body’s natural healing processes, using techniques that promote healthy collagen production and skin regeneration.
What to Expect During Acne Scar Removal Treatment
Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a comprehensive skin analysis where we assess your scarring, discuss your concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and skin type.
Treatment Experience
Depending on your customized plan, treatments typically take 60-90 minutes. Most patients find the procedures comfortable, with sensations ranging from mild tingling to gentle warmth.
Healing and Results Timeline
Initial improvement may be visible within 1-2 weeks, with continued enhancement over 3-6 months as new collagen forms and skin texture improves.
