Acne Scars: What Treatments & Products Should I Use?
Dealing with acne scars can be a frustrating experience, but at Canvas Skin, we’re here to help you achieve smoother, more even-toned skin. Whether your scars are from past breakouts or long-standing blemishes, there are effective treatments and products designed to minimize their appearance. Let’s explore the best options for addressing acne scars and how Canvas Skin can support your journey to glowing skin.
Understanding Acne Scars
Acne scars form when deep inflammation damages the skin's tissue, leaving behind textural changes or pigmentation issues. There are several types of scars, including:
Atrophic scars: Indented scars such as ice pick, boxcar, or rolling scars.
Hyperpigmentation: Dark spots left after acne clears, often referred to as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
Hypertrophic scars: Raised scars, which are less common but still frustrating.
Identifying the type of scars you have is the first step in selecting the right treatment plan.
Best Treatments for Acne Scars at Canvas Skin
Microneedling with or without PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin)
Microneedling stimulates collagen production by creating tiny micro-injuries in the skin. This process helps smooth out the texture of scars over time. Adding PRF, a natural serum derived from your blood, enhances healing and amplifies results.MOXI Laser Treatments
MOXI is a non-invasive laser that improves skin texture and tone. It's gentle yet effective in reducing discoloration and refining scarred areas. Plus, it’s safe for all skin tones and requires minimal downtime.Chemical Peels (Including BioRePeel)
Exfoliating away the top layers of skin can significantly improve the appearance of acne scars. BioRePeel is a favorite at Canvas Skin—it rejuvenates the skin while minimizing redness and irritation.Aquagold Fine Touch
This treatment infuses a custom cocktail of skin-loving ingredients directly into the skin through a microchanneling device. It’s perfect for reducing pigmentation and enhancing the skin's overall glow.Custom Skincare Regimens
Every scar tells a story, and your skincare routine should address your unique concerns. At Canvas Skin, we can create a personalized regimen tailored to your skin type and goals.
