About

Acne Scarring

Treatment options for acne scars vary depending on the types and severity of the scars. Dr. Goerig specializes in several effective treatments for acne scars, including:

Laser Resurfacing: Utilizing lasers to improve skin texture and reduce scars.
Pulsed Dye Laser: Targeting scars with concentrated light energy to minimize their appearance.
Subcision: Using a blunt-tipped cannula to break up scar tissue beneath the skin’s surface.
Chemical Reconstruction of Skin Scars: Employing chemical treatments to enhance scar appearance.
Sylfirm X: Utilizing radiofrequency and microneedling to induce collagen production and treat scars.
Chemical Peeling: Applying chemical solutions to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin’s surface.
Prescription Topical Medications: Medications applied directly to the skin to enhance treatment effectiveness.

Additionally, light chemical peels are beneficial for treating sun-damaged and dry skin, as well as mild acne. Deeper peels are more effective in reducing or eliminating acne scars, melasma, and deep lines and wrinkles. They can also serve as a preventive measure against skin cancer by removing pre-cancerous sun spots and preventing their progression into malignancies in the future.

Acne Scarring Q & A

What causes acne scarring?

Acne scarring occurs when the skin is damaged during the healing process of active acne.

Can acne scarring be prevented?

While there is no way to completely prevent acne scars, you can reduce your risk of developing them by treating acne as soon as you notice it and avoiding picking, popping, scratching, or squeezing breakouts. These actions increase inflammation, which can lead to scarring.
