Clinical acne and scar therapy addresses both sebaceous hyperactivity in active lesions and deep dermal tethering in atrophic scars (icepick, boxcar, rolling). By combining cannula subcision to release fibrotic bands with Fractional CO2 Laser resurfacing and Morpheus8 RF microneedling, the dermis synthesizes new collagen to elevate depressed scar tissue.
Who is it suitable for
- Patients with depressed acne scars (icepick, boxcar, rolling) and enlarged pores
- Individuals with persistent adult acne or post-inflammatory erythema and hyperpigmentation
Techniques
Fractional Laser & RF Microneedling Synergy
Creates micro-thermal remodeling zones in the dermis to elevate depressed scar bases and resurface skin texture.
Process
- 1. Scar Morphology Mapping & Protocol Design — Under tangential lighting, scar depth and tethering are analyzed to craft a customized multi-modality schedule.
Frequently asked questions
Can deep acne scars be completely removed?
Combining subcision, fractional laser resurfacing, and RF microneedling achieves a permanent 60% to 85% improvement in scar depth and skin smoothness.
