What are Acne Scars?
Acne scars, the lingering aftermath of persistent acne breakouts, are the result of the skin’s attempt to heal and repair itself after the inflammation caused by acne lesions. These scars can manifest in various forms, including depressed or raised areas on the skin, discoloration, or changes in skin texture. While acne scars are not harmful, they can significantly impact one’s self-esteem and confidence. Understanding the nature of acne scars is crucial in determining the most effective treatment approach for achieving smoother, healthier skin.

Treatment for Acne Scars at Dr. Haror’s Wellness
- Advanced Laser Therapies: Utilising cutting-edge fractionated laser technologies to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture. These lasers help by creating micro injuries resulting in collagen production and filling in the pits. Successive sessions are recommended. This treatment can have downtime in the form of scabbing for a few days.
- Chemical Peels: Exfoliating the skin with chemical solutions to encourage new, smoother skin growth. This is done majorly for ice pick scars when they do not respond well to lasers or microneedling.
- Dermaroller or Dermapen: Microneedling devices help in collagen production. To enhance the efficacy of the treatment and boost collagen production growth promoters can also be incorporated as part of the treatment. This treatment works well for shallow scars and has almost minimal to no downtime.
- Microneedling: Microneedling Radiofrequency is a procedure that works by stimulating collagen production through tiny, controlled skin punctures. The microneedles puncture the skin and stimulate its own healing system to start collagen production and RF degrades the collagen fibers to induce the body to build new collagen and elastin and help fill pits and reduce the depth of scars. This treatment has minimal to no downtime of slight redness for a few hours and successive sessions yield remarkable results.
