Acne scars can significantly impact one’s confidence and self-esteem.

Khawar Nazir, our clinic provides cutting-edge solutions to help you achieve clear, smooth skin.

Understanding Acne Scars

Acne scars form when a breakout penetrates the skin deeply and damages the tissues beneath it. As the acne clears, the body tries to repair this damage. During the healing process, the body produces collagen, but if too little or too much collagen is produced, a scar forms. There are several types of acne scars, including:

1. Atrophic Scars: These scars form a depression or sunken area in the skin.
   • Ice pick scars: Deep, narrow scars.
   • Boxcar scars: Broad, box-like depressions.
   • Rolling scars: Rolling or wave-like depressions.
2. Hypertrophic Scars: These scars are raised above the surface of the skin and are more common on the chest and back.

Effective Treatments for Acne Scars

At Boston Aesthetics Lahore, we offer several effective treatments for acne scars, ensuring personalized care for each patient.

1. Laser Therapy

Laser therapy is one of the most effective treatments for acne scars. It involves using focused light to remove layers of skin, promoting new skin cell growth and collagen production. This results in smoother and more even skin.

• Fractional CO2 Laser: This laser treatment targets deep layers of the skin, promoting collagen production and skin renewal. It’s effective for severe acne scars.
• Erbium Laser: This laser is suitable for mild to moderate acne scars and has a shorter recovery time.

2. Microneedling

Microneedling involves using fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin. This stimulates the body’s natural healing process, promoting collagen and elastin production. It’s effective for improving skin texture and reducing the appearance of scars.

• Microneedling with Griwth Factors Therapy: Combining microneedling with growth factor therapy enhances the results by accelerating the healing process and promoting more significant collagen production.

3. Chemical Peels

Chemical peels involve applying a chemical solution to the skin, causing the top layers to peel off. This reveals new, smoother skin underneath.

• Glycolic Acid Peel: Suitable for mild acne scars, this peel helps to exfoliate the skin and promote new skin cell growth.
• TCA Peel (Trichloroacetic Acid): This medium-depth peel is effective for moderate to severe acne scars.

4. Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers can be used to treat atrophic scars by filling in the depressions and creating a smoother surface. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are commonly used for this purpose.

5. Subcision

Subcision is a minor surgical procedure that involves inserting a needle under the skin to break up fibrous bands that cause rolling scars. This helps to elevate the depressed areas, resulting in smoother skin.
