Acne scars affect individuals of all ages and can significantly impact their confidence and self-esteem. They appear as depressions or raised areas on the skin, resulting from severe acne or improper handling of breakout. At Kerin MedSpa & Laser Center, our team can help patients understand the causes and available treatments for acne scars, and help them improve their skin’s appearance and texture.
Causes of Acne Scars
Acne scars develop when acne blemishes penetrate the skin deeply and damage the tissues beneath. Several factors contribute to the formation of these scars, including:
- Inflammation: Severe inflammation can damage skin tissues, leading to scarring.
- Pore Blockages: Clogged pores from excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria can cause severe acne, resulting in scars.
- Improper Treatment: Picking, squeezing, or popping acne can increase the risk of scars.
- Genetics: A family history of acne scars can increase the likelihood of developing them.
Acne Scar Treatments at Kerin MedSpa & Laser Center
At Kerin MedSpa & Laser Center in Tuckahoe, NY, we offer skin treatments to reduce and eliminate acne scars. These minimally invasive treatments, handled by our experienced practitioners, provide the best results. Here are the treatments we offer:
Morpheus
Morpheus8 is a treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to target deeper layers of the skin. This treatment stimulates collagen production, enhancing skin texture and reducing acne scars. It is highly effective for improving skin texture and reducing the appearance of acne scars. With minimal downtime, most patients experience mild redness and swelling for only a few days.
PicoFacial
PicoFacial utilizes laser technology to target acne scars at their source. The Pico laser breaks down scar tissue and stimulates collagen production without damaging surrounding skin, effective for treating deeper acne scars and improving skin texture. Patients can expect minimal downtime with some mild redness that resolves quickly.
Microneedling
Microneedling involves creating tiny punctures in the skin using fine needles. This process stimulates collagen production and promotes the healing of acne scars and improves skin texture. There will be some mild redness and swelling for a few days, but patients will see gradual improvement in skin texture over several sessions.
Hydrafacial
Hydrafacial is a non-invasive treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates the skin. It helps reduce the appearance of acne scars by removing dead skin cells and promoting healthy skin regeneration. It’s ideal for maintaining healthy skin and reducing minor acne scars. Get immediate results with a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.
PicoSure
PicoSure is another laser treatment specifically designed for acne scar removal. It delivers short bursts of energy to break down scar tissue and promote new skin cell growth. It’s excellent for reducing the appearance of both superficial and deep acne scars. Like most of our treatments, expect minimal downtime with slight redness and swelling.
