Understanding Acne Scars: Types & Treatment Options
Acne scarring affects millions of people and can take several forms — icepick, boxcar, rolling scars or post-inflammatory pigmentation. Each type responds differently to treatment.
At Derma Genesis, we start with an accurate diagnosis before recommending a treatment plan, which may include microneedling, chemical peels, laser resurfacing, or subcision depending on scar depth and skin type.
Most patients see visible improvement within 3–6 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart to allow the skin to heal between treatments.
