A selection of treatments to reduce and remove Acne Scars

How are you treated for Acne Scar removal?

During your intial consultation, your senior skin technician will devise an advanced acne scar removal treatment plan that will significantly reduce and also remove acne scarring damage to areas such as your face, neck chest or back. Consultations for acne scarring are often free of charge and come with no obligation. Our skin technician will then be able to offer you some alternative treatment methods, such as SkinPen, to suit both the type of acne scaring and the location of the scars on your face or body.

Do you have unwanted acne scars? Or are you looking for acne scar removal because it’s affecting your self esteem and confidence?

At our advanced skin clinic, we have the solutions to resolve your scarring concerns.

It is likely that as your skin has aged and any old flat, raised or indented acne scars may have become more prominent as the elasticity has gone from your skin. Your skin may now seem a little more saggy and less tight.

There are four types of acne scarring that we see and successfully treat in our Hertfordshire clinic:

  • Post Inflammatory scarring
  • Ice Pick Acne scarring
  • Box scarring
  • Rolling Scars

By the end of your course, your treatment will have left you with a significant improvement to your skin. Which ever method is advised to you, the results will show new smooth unblemished skin due to the repair, resurfacing, tightening and plumping.

What is the best treatment for Acne Scars?

The treatment for acne scar removal, post consultation, may be a single type of method or a course of treatments including Chemical Peels, SkinPen Microneedling, Skin Needling, Fibroblast Plasma Pen and LED. Your type of treatment is determined by the severity of your scars  and where they are on the body. By the end of your course your skin will show significantly better results.

What results can you expect from the treatment?

Each person can have different acne scars and can be shown up on different areas of the body. For instance, if we were to suggest Skinneedling (SkinPen)  or Plasma Pen, it would be because you had Atrophic scarring. Atrophic scars form below the upper layer of skin tissue.  They are a result of severe acne that has prevented the skin from being able to regenerate your tissue correctly. This leaves behind uneven texture in shapes known as ice-pick, rolling, and box scars. Also a session of LED after each treatment is key to help skin recovery and healing.

When discussing your treatment for acne scar removal, we may see that the scars had developed more recently and have now showed up as little dark or red marks that just have refused to go away over time. In these cases we would look at other alternatives such as Fibroblast Plasma or a specific Chemical Peel (for Vascular  / post inflammatory) that suited your skin type. Exfoliation is key to your recovery with these acne scars.

What we recommend you do now

Your Questions Answered

Post-inflammatory scarring are seen as brownish and reddish marks. In order to treat, we would initially review the skin and use one of or a combination of microneedling (skin needling) Plasma Pen or Chemical Skin Peels. LED light therapy is the perfect finish to all the treatments for acne and acne scarring due to its wonderful healing and strengthening properties.

There is minimal pain or discomfort felt. A local anaesthetic cream will be used to minimise discomfort.

There are no specific requirements before the treatment. We suggest not to apply any cosmetics beforehand and you should let us know about any recent medical conditions and medications taken.

Ice Pick and Box scarring, as their names suggest, are caused by more aggressive and severe acne. For Ice Pick and Box scarring we would use Microneedling (skin needling) (to produce more Collagen and plump) or Fibroblast Plasma Pen.  LED light therapy is the perfect finish to all the treatments for acne and acne scarring due to its wonderful healing and strengthening properties.

30 – 90 minutes depending on treatment plan discussed.

Very unlikely. With squeezing NHS budgets, the reduction and removal of acne scarring and other types of scaring is not something that is performed by your local GP. Our clinic offers successful safe, non-surgical treatments to reduce and remove acne scars.

Immediately after the treatment, redness may occur for up to 2 days. This is perfectly normal and nothing of concern. You can be back at work or normal life immediately but may need a little makeup in the first 24 hours. We can help you with this as you leave the clinic.

Once the session is complete, we will discuss with you what the proper after care routine is and how to ensure the best results of the procedure.

I approached BeauSYNERGY in the hope for a cure for my bad skin as it seemed to be getting worse and worse. I started with DMK Enzyme treatments to flush out toxins and improve skin function. I had these over a period of 5 months, in conjunction with using DMK products at home. I then had the Plasma Pen treatment which helped improve my scarring. The clinic have been extremely helpful within this process and made it as comfortable as possible. I was patient in waiting for my skin to improve as I knew it would be worth the wait. I am very happy with the results and would recommend it to anyone.
