Acne Scar Treatment Before & After

A multi-modal approach with Laser treatments, Skin Needling, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Dermal Fillers will give the best results.

New collagen production can take up to 3 – 6 months for the full results*, so expect a gradual improvement in acne scarring over this time. Dermal fillers will provide a more instant result while waiting for the full effects of new collagen production. Acne scarring is difficult to treat however with a multi-modal approach vast improvements can be made.

Significant improvement in the appearance of the acne scar and the pigmentation can be seen as new collagen fibres are produced.

The downtime will vary from 1-3 days. The best results will be seen at 3months post treatment.

*Results may vary from patient to patient.

What causes acne scarring?

Acne scars occur as a result of abnormal collagen production during healing. Teenage acne is a major cause for many adults being left with unsightly acne scars, even after the active acne has been successfully treated. Acne scarring can be very difficult to treat, its appearance can be vastly improved when combining treatments that are aimed at the formation of new collagen production.

What is the level of discomfort for these acne scar treatments?

Fractional Laser: A topical anaesthetic is applied to maintain your comfort during the procedure. Afterwards, cool compresses can be used to minimise discomfort.
Skin Needling: A topical anaesthetic is applied and you may feel a very mild prickling sensation.
PRP: This treatment is very similar to a blood test and you may experience a mild prick sensation.
Dermal Filler/ Dermal Stimulator: These options have very minimal discomfort, but you may feel a small pricking in the area.
