Laser Resurfacing

This nonsurgical cosmetic procedure works inside the dermis to ablate superficial layers of skin and stimulate the formation of collagen and elastin. In simpler terms, it uses the body’s natural healing process to smooth acne scars and create refreshed looking skin.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion gently exfoliates the surface of the skin using a fine spray of tiny crystals to address acne scars by improving skin color and texture.

Microneedling

Microneedling, or collagen induction therapy, creates collagen and elastin by using tiny needles to stimulate the body’s natural healing process. This results in tighter, brighter skin in just a few days.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

IPL photofacial treatments are an effective and option to treat discoloration caused by acne scars. This non-ablative treatment emits high-intensity pulses of broadband light to address excess pigmentation without damaging surrounding healthy skin cells.

Chemical Peels

Chemical Peels exfoliate and minimize acne scars and damage by utilizing a topical acid such as TCA.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are a great option for a temporary, yet effective way to make acne scars less noticeable! This works by dermal fillers being injected under the skin to fill out indented scars.

Botox Injections

Just as BOTOX relaxes fine lines to make them less noticeable, it can also minimize the appearance of acne scars. This requires upkeep but is another great non-invasive option!
