Acne Scar Treatment

What Is An Acne Scar?

Acne scars encompass atrophic/hypertrophic marks and accompanying pigmentation changes that result from irregular repair of the dermal matrix during the healing phase after inflammatory acne. The type and depth of the scar determine the treatment plan.

Types Of Scars

  • Atrophic: Ice-pick, boxcar, rolling
  • Hypertrophic and keloid
  • Post-inflammatory erythema/hyperpigmentation

Treatment Approaches

  • Fractional lasers (carbon dioxide/Er:YAG): Collagen remodeling
  • Microneedling/RF: Tissue renewal and scar softening
  • Subcision, TCA CROSS, leveling with fillers
  • Vascular/pigment lasers and topicals for color irregularities
