2. Am I a good candidate for acne scarring treatment?
Sometimes acne scarring is unavoidable. If you
have been left with scarring after overcoming
severe acne and feel that it has had a negative
impact on your personal, social or
professional life in any way, then you are a
great candidate for a treatment consultation.
Never try to treat acne scarring yourself using
topical treatments or other methods before
getting a professional opinion. Always seek a
board-certified dermatologist who can
recommend the best course of treatment for
your unique case, taking into account the
types and locations of the scars.

4. Intense Pulsed Light treatment (IPL)
An IPL treatment can help to diminish the
appearance of discoloration from acne
scarring and improve the look of dark spots
from post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
The gentle, non-ablative treatment uses
broad-spectrum light to treat damaged skin.
Sunscreen is imperative to caring for your skin
before and after your IPL treatment, and the
best way to maintain your results is to commit
to a medical-grade skin care regimen, such as
the Obagi Nu-Derm Transformation System.

5. Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is an exfoliation
and skin rejuvenation procedure that
involves spraying the top layer of skin
with tiny crystals to gently remove it.
The procedure provides the best
results for those with shallow
depressions. Microdermabrasion
requires no surgery or anesthetics,
and skin may be temporarily pink,
but it usually recovers in 24 hours.

6. Laser resurfacing
Dr. Schlessinger recommends the Fraxel
laser resurfacing treatment. Fraxel is a semi-ablative
procedure that is based upon the
skin’s own healing process. Microscopic
laser wounds are spaced across the skin to
initiate new collagen growth and repair.
Most patients see a significant improvement
in all types of acne scars, with continuous
improvement over time.
The treatment requires a rest period of
about 5-7 days. Though the results are not
permanent, they last significantly longer
than other procedures.

7. Fillers
Well-placed hyaluronic acid fillers can make a
big difference when it comes to diminishing
depressed acne scars. Similar to how these filler
injections can help plump the skin and fill in
wrinkles, they can also help fill acne scars. The
quick procedure allows you to resume normal
activities immediately, and depending on the
area being treated, the results can last for up to
six months.
There are a variety of fillers available such as
Restylane®, Perlane®, JUVEDERM® and more.
Your dermatologist will be able to recommend
the best filler or combination of fillers for your
specific needs.

8. Retin-A topical cream
Also known as tretinoin, Retin-A is a
prescription-only vitamin A cream that
helps to increase the rate of cell
turnover and stimulate healthy collagen
production. It is often prescribed to treat
acne and wrinkles, and it can also
improve the appearance of acne scarring
over time. Superficial acne scarring may
benefit the most from Retin-A creams,
and side effects may include temporary
dryness and peeling.

9. Acne scar surgery
For deep acne scars, acne scar surgery
remains one of the most effective
treatments. Acne scar surgery can be
performed with a variety of techniques.
The aim is to manipulate the skin so as to
replace the large, depressed scar with a
smaller, less noticeable one. Depending on
the extent of your surgery, there may be
an extended period of downtime required,
perhaps lasting two weeks or more. Your
dermatologist can discuss methods and
care instructions for your unique
treatment plan.
