Understanding Acne & Acne Scars
Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, leading to pimples, blackheads, and cysts. It primarily affects the face, chest, and back, and can occur at any age, though it is most prevalent during adolescence. Acne can be triggered by various factors, including hormonal changes, genetics, stress, and certain medications.
Acne scars are the result of the skin’s healing process following severe or persistent acne. They can manifest as depressed indentations (atrophic scars), raised areas (hypertrophic scars), or discoloration (hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation). Acne scars can affect self-esteem and overall skin appearance, making effective treatment essential for those seeking to improve their complexion.
Acne & Acne Scar Treatment Options
At ASMDA Aesthetics, we offer a range of treatments designed to address both active acne and the scars it can leave behind. For active acne, treatments may include topical and oral medications, such as retinoids, antibiotics, and hormonal therapies, which help reduce inflammation and control oil production. In addition, light and laser therapies can target bacteria and reduce sebaceous gland activity.
For acne scars, various advanced treatments are available to promote skin regeneration and improve texture and tone. Laser resurfacing uses focused light to stimulate collagen production and remove damaged skin layers. Chemical peels exfoliate the top layers of the skin, promoting new cell growth and reducing discoloration. Microneedling involves creating tiny punctures in the skin to trigger the body’s healing response, enhancing collagen and elastin production. Dermal fillers can also be used to lift and smooth depressed scars, providing a more even skin surface. Our specialists will evaluate your specific skin concerns and recommend a customized treatment plan to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Acne is caused by a combination of factors, including excess oil production, clogged pores, bacteria, and inflammation. Preventive measures include maintaining a consistent skincare routine, using non-comedogenic products, avoiding excessive touching of the face, and managing stress levels. In some cases, medical treatments may be necessary to control hormonal imbalances or severe acne.
Most acne scar treatments are minimally uncomfortable. Procedures like laser therapy and microneedling may cause a sensation similar to mild heat or tingling. Topical anesthetics or cooling devices are often used to enhance comfort during the procedure. The level of discomfort varies depending on the treatment type and individual pain tolerance.
The timeline for seeing results varies based on the specific treatment and the severity of the condition. Active acne treatments may show improvements within a few weeks, while acne scar treatments can take several weeks to months to reveal significant changes as collagen production and skin regeneration occur. Consistent treatment and follow-up appointments are essential for optimal results.
While it may not be possible to completely eliminate all types of acne scars, significant improvement can be achieved with appropriate treatments. Techniques like laser resurfacing, microneedling, and chemical peels can greatly reduce the appearance of scars, leading to a smoother and more even complexion. Multiple sessions and a combination of therapies are often necessary to achieve the best outcomes.
