Scars
Smoother-looking skin where scars have left their mark.
What it is
Scars form when the skin repairs deeper damage. Acne scars are the most common reason people come to us: indented scars such as ice pick, boxcar and rolling scars, plus the marks left after breakouts.
Scars can't be erased completely, but their depth, texture and color can often be improved a great deal. Most plans use a series of treatments that build new collagen under the scar.
Common causes
- Inflammatory or cystic acne
- Picking or squeezing spots
- Injuries, burns or surgery
- Genetics and skin type
- Slow or uneven healing

How we plan it
Different scars respond to different treatments, and most people have a mix. We look at the type and depth of your scars and your skin tone, then plan a series, often combining treatments.
Improvement builds over months as collagen remodels. Results vary, and we'll be clear about what's realistic for your skin.
Skin care at home
Sunscreen keeps marks from darkening, and correctives can help even tone between sessions.
Frequently asked questions
Can acne scars be removed?
They can't be erased completely, but many people see a clear improvement in depth and texture after a series of treatments.
How many sessions will I need?
Usually several, spaced weeks apart. Deeper scars may need more.
What's the difference between a mark and a scar?
Flat red or brown marks after acne often fade with time and skin care. Indented scars change the skin's texture and usually need collagen-building treatments.
Is it safe for darker skin?
Many options can be adjusted for darker skin tones. We'll choose settings and treatments that lower the risk of pigment changes.
