Acne scar treatments are professional procedures designed to reduce the appearance of scarring left by past breakouts. Options range from chemical peels and microneedling to laser resurfacing and dermal fillers, depending on the type and severity of scars.

Side effects depend on the specific acne scar treatment but may include redness, swelling, discomfort, skin discoloration, and temporary skin sensitivity. More invasive treatments like laser resurfacing and dermabrasion may have more noticeable side effects and longer recovery times.

Results from acne scar treatments vary based on the type of treatment and the severity of the scars. With short term treatments like dermabrasion, you could see improvements within a few weeks. Long term treatments like laser treatments and microneedling may take several months to show full results, as your skin heals and generates new collagen.

Microneedling is one of the most popular and effective treatments for acne scarring. Browse and book qualified microneedling specialists near you on Fresha.

Severe acne scars usually require cosmetic treatments, but you can treat mild acne scars with skin-nourishing home remedies like lemon juice, honey, and aloe vera. Always test your home remedies on a small area first to check that your skin reacts appropriately.
