Acne Scars Treatment
Restore Your Skin's Natural Smoothness and Confidence
Acne scars can be lasting reminders of past breakouts, affecting your skin's texture and your self-confidence. At The Skin Sense Clinic, we understand that acne scars are more than just a cosmetic concern—they impact how you feel about yourself. Our specialized acne scar treatments are designed to restore your skin's smoothness and help you regain your confidence with proven, effective solutions.
What Are Acne Scars?
Acne scars are permanent textural changes and indentations in the skin that occur as a result of severe acne. They form when inflamed acne lesions damage the skin's collagen structure during the healing process. Unlike temporary marks that fade over time, acne scars are permanent changes that require professional treatment to improve their appearance.
Types of Acne Scars
Understanding your scar type is crucial for effective treatment. Ice pick scars are deep, narrow, and pitted scars that extend into the dermis. Boxcar scars are broader depressions with sharp, defined edges that create a box-like appearance. Rolling scars create a wave-like texture due to fibrous bands pulling the skin downward. Hypertrophic scars are raised, thick scars that form when too much collagen is produced during healing. Each type requires a specific treatment approach for optimal results.
Why Professional Treatment is Essential
Acne scars don't improve on their own and often become more noticeable with age as skin loses elasticity. Professional treatment can significantly improve texture, reduce depth, and restore skin smoothness. Early intervention prevents scars from becoming more prominent and achieves better results.

While complete removal may not always be possible, acne scars can be significantly improved by 50-90% depending on the type and severity. Our treatments can dramatically smooth texture, reduce depth, and restore a more even skin surface.
The number of sessions varies based on scar type, severity, and treatment method. Generally, 3-6 sessions are needed for optimal results, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Some patients see improvement after just one session.
The best treatment depends on your specific scar type. Ice pick scars respond well to laser treatments, boxcar scars benefit from fractional resurfacing, and rolling scars improve with microneedling. Our specialists will assess your scars and recommend the most effective approach.
Initial improvements may be visible within 2-4 weeks, with significant results appearing after 2-3 months as collagen regeneration occurs. Full results are typically seen 6-12 months after completing the treatment series.
Downtime varies by treatment type. Laser treatments may require 3-7 days of healing, while microneedling typically involves 1-2 days of mild redness. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to minimize downtime and optimize results.
