“What treatment does my acne scarring need?”

Many people are concerned about the scars left behind after their acne disappears.

When you search online for ways to treat them, you will find various methods, such as Fraxel and pico lasers.

However, it is often difficult to know which treatment you actually need.

Because acne scars appear differently from person to person, choosing a treatment suited to your scars is important for expecting faster and more consistent results.

No particular device or procedure is always the best option. You can achieve more satisfactory results by choosing an approach suited to your scar type.

From now on, I will explain in detail which treatments are needed for which types of acne scars.

Please take three minutes to read this carefully.

Types of acne scars

Acne scars can be broadly divided into three types.

  1. Ice pick scars

These are scars that are narrow and deeply indented, as if punctured by an awl.

Because the damage often extends deep into the skin, treatments that only stimulate the surface may have limitations in improving them.

  1. Boxcar scars

These are acne scars that are relatively wide, clearly defined, and indented.

Treatments that promote skin regeneration may be helpful, but please note that the approach may vary depending on the depth of the scars.

  1. Rolling scars

These scars appear gently depressed in a wave-like pattern as fibrous tissue beneath the skin pulls downward.

Stimulating only the skin’s surface may produce limited results.

Treatment is often determined while also considering any adhesions beneath the skin.

Which treatment does my scarring need?

It is important to use different treatment methods depending on the shape and depth of the scars.

Here are three representative procedures commonly used for scar treatment, along with the types of scars for which they may be helpful.

  1. Shine Peel Scar Mode

Yeongdeungpo U&I Clinic Shine Peel

This procedure is based on an erbium:YAG laser with a wavelength of 2,940 nm. Its treatment range can be adjusted precisely using handpieces of various diameters.

Because this wavelength has a high water absorption rate, it precisely stimulates the skin surface and shallow dermis as if gently resurfacing them.

Therefore, it is suitable for customized treatment of individual areas when the depth of the lesion varies locally, such as with boxcar scars that have relatively distinct borders or shallow ice pick scars.

It is also often used when the goal is to make the edges and base of a scar more even, so please keep this in mind.

  1. Icon Laser

Yeongdeungpo U&I Clinic Icon Laser

This is a non-ablative laser based on a 1,540 nm erbium glass laser. It delivers thermal energy deep into the dermis while helping prevent damage to the skin’s surface.

This thermal stimulation activates fibroblasts and induces collagen regeneration.

Since it does not resurface the skin by removing the surface layer, the recovery burden is relatively low.

It is often used for broadly distributed rolling scars or when scarring occurs together with an overall decrease in skin elasticity.

  1. PicoSure Fraxel

Yeongdeungpo U&I Clinic PicoSure

This procedure uses extremely short picosecond-duration energy to create microbubble-like stimulation inside the skin.

Through this process, it can deliver regenerative signals to the dermis while reducing damage to the surrounding tissue.

It is often considered for relatively shallow indented scars, when the overall skin texture needs to be refined, or when pigmentation is also present.

Cases that require caution

However, before treating scars, you should always check your skin condition once again first.

If inflammatory acne is still continuing to appear, or if your skin barrier is damaged and your skin reddens and becomes irritated easily,

it may be a better choice to stabilize the inflammation first and prioritize skin recovery.

If you proceed with scar treatment too aggressively in this situation, your skin condition may become unstable, increasing the possibility of side effects.

Therefore, rather than deciding in advance, “I should have this procedure right away,”

you should have your current scars, skin barrier condition, and presence or absence of inflammation thoroughly assessed before deciding on a treatment plan.

This is the treatment case of a man who had been struggling with severe inflammatory acne and red marks.

If you are currently concerned about active inflammation, it may be helpful to briefly review the case above to see what type of treatment may need to be prioritized.

If you are considering acne scar treatment in Yeongdeungpo, first make sure you clearly identify what type of scars you have.

Each scar type has a different depth of damage and different characteristics, so different procedures must be applied accordingly to expect more satisfactory results.

Therefore, if you are planning acne scar treatment, I would like to emphasize that you should start with a clinic that first seeks to understand your skin.

I sincerely hope today’s post helps everyone who has been stressed by acne scars.
