As a result, we use FDA-approved and clinically proven methods to deliver visible, long-lasting results for every patient.
Advanced Treatment Options
1. Microneedling with Dermapen

6. PRP Therapy (Vampire Facial)
- Best for: Atrophic scars, skin rejuvenation

How Acne & Scar Treatments Works
Step 1: Consultation & Skin Analysis
First, your dermatologist carefully examines your skin to identify acne triggers, such as bacteria and hormonal factors. Additionally, they assess the type of scars present, whether raised or pitted.
Step 2: Personalized Plan
Based on the analysis, a tailored combination of treatments is selected. For example, laser therapy may be recommended for scars, while topical treatments target active acne.
Step 3: Treatment Sessions
Next, procedures such as fractional laser or chemical peels are performed in-clinic. Fortunately, these treatments come with minimal downtime, allowing you to resume your routine quickly.
Step 4: Aftercare & Maintenance
Finally, prescription skincare products and follow-up visits ensure long-term results and prevent recurrence. Therefore, maintaining your skin after treatment is essential for lasting benefits.
Ideal Candidates for Acne & Scar Treatments
While most patients see significant improvement, those with extremely deep scars or certain medical conditions (e.g., keloid tendency, pregnancy) require a customized approach. Therefore, during your consultation, our dermatologists will carefully evaluate your skin’s needs and adjust treatments for optimal safety and results.
