What You May Notice
Depressed or raised areas, uneven skin surface, pitting, and textural irregularities where past breakouts occurred.
Causes & Contributing Factors
Inflammatory acne, cystic acne, picking or squeezing, delayed treatment, and genetic healing patterns.
How We Assess
We classify scar type (ice-pick, boxcar, rolling, hypertrophic), assess depth and distribution, and review active acne status.
Treatment Options
Microneedling, fractional laser, chemical peels, subcision, PRP, and filler for individual scars. A series of treatments is typically needed.
When to See a Provider
Not urgent, but treatment works best when active acne is controlled first. See a provider to start a plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can acne scars be fully removed?
Significant improvement is possible. Most patients see 50 to 80 percent improvement depending on scar type and depth.
Do I need to treat active acne first?
Yes. Active breakouts should be controlled before scar treatments to prevent new scarring.
How many sessions are needed?
