Acne Scars

Tailored to the shape of depressed scars, restoring overall skin texture

Acne scars vary in shape and depth—including icepick, boxcar, and rolling scars—and cannot be uniformly improved with a single method. We combine fractional laser resurfacing, subcision, and scar excision tailored to each scar type to smooth skin texture and unevenness simultaneously.

Approx. 30–40 mins
Anesthesia
Topical numbing cream
Downtime
Available after 3–7 days

Every 4–6 weeks, 3–5 sessions

NOTICE

Pre & Post-Care Instructions

  • Redness, swelling, and scabbing may occur after treatment, mostly resolving within about a week.
  • If active acne is present, it is stabilized first before proceeding with scar revision.
  • Treatment outcomes and recovery times may vary by individual. Since all procedures can carry potential side effects, please consult thoroughly with a medical specialist before treatment.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How many sessions are needed to see results?

Skin texture typically feels smoother after 1 to 2 sessions, with noticeable improvement seen after 3 or more sessions.

Can I undergo scar treatment if I still have active acne?

Active inflammation can reduce treatment efficacy and lead to new scarring, so active acne is treated first.
