Prescription creams or gels with retinoids, corticosteroids, or hydroxy acids can help improve the texture and look of acne scars over time by increasing skin cell turnover and collagen formation.
Chemical peels include applying a chemical solution to the skin to remove the outer layers. This can help to improve the look of mild to moderate acne scars by increasing collagen formation and smoothing the skin texture.
Microdermabrasion utilizes a device to gently exfoliate the outer layer of skin, reducing the appearance of surface acne scars and promoting the generation of new, healthier skin cells.
It is most advanced MnRF procedure, US-FDA approved, in which microscopic punctures are created in the skin with a device equipped with fine needles and RF energy is delivered to deeper layers of skin to produce more collagen and make the dented skin firmer.
A globally recognised, well known microneedling technology which encourages smooth and effective penetration of collagen producing solutions hence improving skin texture and firmness making it appear smoother.
Dermal fillers, such as hyaluronic acid or collagen-based fillers, can improve the look of deep acne scars, known as rolling or boxcar scars.
Subcision is a minor procedure using a needle or blade to remove fibrous scar tissue beneath the skin. This can assist in loosening the grasp of depressed scars and stimulate the creation of new collagen, resulting in smoother skin.
Punch excision or elevation is used to treat deep or ice-pick scars by surgically removing the scar tissue and suturing the skin closed. This can assist in smoothing out particular scars.
PRP therapy is a popular acne scar removal treatment. Platelets are extracted from the patient’s blood and injected into the skin to stimulate collagen formation and tissue regeneration, resulting in enhanced skin texture and less scarring.
