What causes
acne scarring?
- Severity of Acne: Severe or cystic acne is more likely to cause scarring due to deeper inflammation and tissue damage.
- Delayed or Inadequate Treatment: Not treating acne promptly or effectively can increase the risk of scarring.
- Genetics: Some individuals are genetically predisposed to develop acne scars, regardless of the severity of their acne.
- Picking or Squeezing Pimples: Manipulating or picking at acne lesions can worsen inflammation and increase the likelihood of scarring.
Our Scar & Pore Treatments
PicoSure Pro uses ultra-short picosecond laser pulses to target scar tissue and stimulate collagen remodelling deep within the skin. It is particularly effective for atrophic acne scars and can also help improve overall skin texture and tone with minimal downtime.
Laser Genesis uses non-ablative laser energy to gently heat the upper dermis, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin renewal. It is an effective option for improving the appearance of acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven skin texture โ with a comfortable treatment experience and no downtime required.
Skin needling uses fine, controlled micro-injuries to trigger the skin’s natural healing response, stimulating collagen and elastin production. Over a course of treatments, this can significantly improve the appearance of acne scars, pore size, and overall skin texture.
Chemical peels work by exfoliating the skin and promoting cellular turnover and collagen production. Superficial peels can assist with mild scarring and pore refinement, while deeper peels may be recommended for more significant concerns.
For depressed or atrophic acne scars, injectable fillers can help restore volume to the affected area, improving the appearance of indentations in the skin. Results are temporary and individual outcomes will vary. A consultation is required to determine suitability.
Subcision is a minor in-clinic procedure that involves breaking up the fibrous scar tissue beneath the skin’s surface, allowing depressed scars to gradually rise to the level of the surrounding skin. It is often used in combination with other treatments for improved outcomes.
Targeted topical products containing ingredients such as retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids, or vitamin C can help improve skin texture and support the results of your in-clinic treatments. Our practitioners can recommend a personalised homecare routine to complement your treatment plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions required depends on the type and severity of your scarring, the treatment option recommended, and how your skin responds. Your practitioner will outline a recommended treatment plan during your initial consultation.
Are the treatments painful?
Most of our scar and pore treatments are well tolerated. Your practitioner will discuss what to expect during your session and ensure your comfort throughout.
When will I see results?
Results vary depending on the treatment and the individual. As many of our treatments work by stimulating the skin’s natural collagen production, improvements are often gradual and continue to develop over weeks to months following treatment.
Can acne scars be completely removed?
While significant improvement in the appearance of acne scars is achievable for many clients, complete removal cannot be guaranteed. A realistic discussion of expected outcomes will be had during your consultation.
Are these treatments suitable for active acne?
In most cases, active acne will need to be managed prior to commencing scar treatment. Your practitioner will assess your skin at consultation and advise accordingly.
Are these treatments suitable for all skin types?
Our range of treatments can be adapted to suit a variety of skin types and tones. A thorough skin assessment is conducted prior to any treatment to ensure suitability and safety.
