Acne Scar Removal

Chemical peels improve the appearance of scars by removing dead skin cells and surface layer cells, and allowing a layer of new, healthy skin to grow in its place. Several treatments may be required in order to completely remove the scar(s).

Laser resurfacing improves skin texture and tone by causing microdamage and triggering the body’s regenerative healing response. Similar to a chemical peel, the surface layer of skin is removed, and healthy, smooth, even-toned skin can regenerate in its place. The major benefit of laser skin remodeling is that you can specifically target scars and other areas of the face that need to be addressed, for a more customized procedure.

Microneedling procedures such as Morpheus8 and Legend Pro use tiny needles to puncture the top layer of skin, triggering the body’s natural wound-healing response and the production of new collagen and elastin. This treatment is also known as collagen induction therapy. These two advanced machines also use radiofrequency (RF) to penetrate even deeper into the skin and achieve more dramatic and longer lasting results.

Acne effects people of every age. As we get older, adult acne can be an incredibly frustrating condition that can take even longer to heal vs dealing with acne in your youth. Before you consider a procedure to remove acne scarring, it’s important to get your acne under control. Be sure to consult with an experienced aethetics provider who can help recommend anti-acne and breakout healing treatments, in addition to correcting and smoothing your acne scars once your skin has stopped reacting.
