About Deep Acne Scars

Deep Acne Scar Treatment is a specialised procedure designed to improve the appearance of severe acne scars. This treatment targets deep, pitted scars that are resistant to over-the-counter products. Common signs that may prompt a patient to seek this procedure include visible scarring after acne has cleared, especially if the scars are causing self-consciousness or emotional distress. Our best team of dermatologists perform this treatment using techniques such as dermaplaning, PRP, microneedling, or chemical peels. The procedure is necessary for individuals with persistent, deep scarring who seek smoother, more even skin.

Types of Acne Scar Treatment

We at Pristyn Care Perform 4 types of Acne Scar treatment as follows

Dermaplaning:

Dermaplaning is a gentle procedure that exfoliates the top layer of skin. Although it’s not specifically designed for deep acne scars, it helps improve the overall look and feel of your skin. During a dermaplaning facial, a doctor uses a dermaplaning tool, a small, sterile blade to gently scrape away dead skin cells and fine hair.

Microneedling :

Microneedling is a popular treatment that effectively addresses deep acne scars. In this procedure, tiny needles are used to create micro-injuries in the skin. This prompts the production of more collagen, a protein that helps keep your skin firm and smooth. The increased collagen can fill in and reduce the appearance of scars over time.

PRP for Acne Scars:

PRP therapy is another innovative treatment for acne scars. This procedure involves taking a small sample of your blood and processing it to concentrate the platelets a type of blood cell that helps with healing. The PRP is then applied or injected into the scarred areas of your skin, stimulating further collagen production and healing processes.

Chemical Peels for Scars:

Chemical peels are an effective way to improve skin texture and reduce discolouration caused by acne scars. During this treatment, a chemical solution is applied to the skin, causing the top layer to peel off gradually. This process removes damaged outer layers and reveals newer, healthier skin underneath.

Dermaplaning:

Dermaplaning is a gentle procedure that exfoliates the top layer of skin. Although it’s not specifically designed for deep acne scars, it helps improve the overall look and feel of your skin.

How is Deep Acne Scar Treatment Performed?

Treating deep acne scars often involves a mix of methods. Here’s what the procedure usually looks like:

  • Punch Excision: Doctors remove the scar tissue and close the area with stitches.
  • Subcision: A needle goes under the scar to release it from the tissue below, allowing it to rise naturally.
  • Laser Resurfacing: This stimulates collagen production, helping to smooth out scars.
  • Microneedling: Tiny injuries are created in the skin to promote collagen growth.
  • Chemical Peels: Controlled injury to the skin stimulates collagen remodelling.
  • Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP): Platelets are injected into the skin to boost collagen production.

  • Medication Review: Tell your doctor about any current or recent acne medications you are taking.
  • Infection Control: Make sure you don’t have any active infections.
  • Sun Protection: Use sunscreen and other protective measures to prevent hyperpigmentation.
  • Counselling: Discuss your treatment goals and potential outcomes with your dermatologist.
