What is Acne Scarring?

Acne scarring is the textural change left after deeper breakouts heal. It can look like shallow dips, narrow pits, rolling depressions, or thicker raised areas. Colour change can sit on top of texture, which is why marks may seem more visible in certain light.
Our team focuses on gentle, staged care. We combine in-clinic treatments with home support to help soften texture and improve skin confidence over time.

Common Causes

Deeper or cystic acne can damage collagen and leave depressions.

Trauma increases inflammation and the chance of scars.

Long-standing breakouts can raise the risk of scarring.

Some skin heals with more visible textural change.

UV can darken marks and make scars appear more obvious.

In-Clinic Treatment Options

How it helps acne scarring: Creates precise micro-channels and delivers radiofrequency energy to support new collagen. Softens atrophic scars and refines enlarged-looking pores.

Best for: Rolling and boxcar scars, visible pores, uneven texture.

Plan: 3 to 4 sessions, 4 to 6 weeks apart. Combination plans are common.

Downtime: Minimal to moderate. Pinkness or pinpoint marks for 1 to 3 days.

How it helps acne scarring: Targeted energy to even tone around scars and support surface refinement. Can reduce lingering redness that makes scarring look more visible.

Best for: Mixed mild texture with post-acne redness or colour.

Plan: Typically 3 to 5 sessions, spaced about 4 weeks.

Downtime: Minimal. Short-lived redness possible.

How it helps acne scarring: Fractional thermo-mechanical resurfacing that polishes superficial texture and encourages smoother skin.

Best for: Mild to moderate shallow scarring and fine creasing.

Plan: 3 to 5 sessions, every 4 to 6 weeks.

Downtime: Minimal to moderate. Redness or flaking for a few days.

How it helps acne scarring: Polynucleotide therapy designed to support skin quality and improve the look of superficial textural change. Often used between resurfacing sessions.

Best for: Early or shallow atrophic scars, overall skin health once acne is stable.

Plan: 3 to 4 sessions, about monthly, then maintenance as advised.

Downtime: Minimal. Small bumps and redness usually settle in 1 to 2 days.

How it helps acne scarring: Micro-injected hydrating gels improve glide, light reflection, and the appearance of fine, shallow irregularities.

Best for: Dehydration, crepey surface around scarred areas, very shallow texture.

Plan: 2 to 3 sessions in a course, then periodic top-ups.

Downtime: Minimal. Tiny bumps may be visible for 24 to 48 hours.

How it helps acne scarring: Used as an adjunct after procedures to support recovery and overall skin quality.

Best for: Post-procedure support alongside other modalities.

Plan: As advised within your program.

Downtime: None to minimal.

How it helps acne scarring: A targeted clinic protocol selected to refine tone and texture in scar patterns. Final approach confirmed in consultation.

Best for: Selected atrophic scar patterns with colour change.

Plan: Tailored by your clinician, often as part of a combination plan.

Downtime: Variable, depending on technique.

Frequently Asked Questions

Acne scars can be ice-pick, boxcar, rolling, or mixed. A doctor assessment maps your scar types so treatment targets the right depth and texture.

Scars change the skin’s texture. Dark or red marks are colour changes after a breakout. Colour often fades with time and sun care, while texture needs targeted treatment.

Collagen-supporting options like fractional resurfacing, RF microneedling, and energy-based devices can soften texture. Your plan may also include in-clinic skin quality boosters when suitable.

Most people need a series of 3 to 5 sessions. Collagen changes build over weeks to months, so results improve gradually.

Expect minimal to moderate downtime depending on intensity. You may have pinkness or flaking for a few days. We plan timing around your schedule.
