Can acne scars really be removed?
While scars can’t always be erased entirely, they can be significantly improved. With the right combination of treatments, many patients see dramatic reductions in depth, texture, and pigmentation often with smoother, clearer skin after just a few sessions.
What is the best treatment for acne scars?
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Our dermatologists assess your skin and scarring type to build a personalised plan using proven modalities like Fractionalaser, Radiofrequency treatment, Picosecond laser, Vascular laser, Fractional laser, TCA Cross, PRP, Subscision, CO2/Erbium , Surgical Scar Revision for optimal results.
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients require 3–6 treatments depending on the scar type and severity. We’ll walk you through a clear treatment timeline during your consultation so you know exactly what to expect.
Is there any downtime?
Treatments such as RF microneedling and TCA CROSS typically have minimal downtime (1–3 days). More intensive resurfacing (like CO2) may require a short recovery period of 5–7 days. We’ll tailor your plan to suit your lifestyle and skin needs.
Are acne scar treatments suitable for all skin tones?
Yes. At DCA, we use technology and protocols that are safe and effective for all skin types and tones, with a strong emphasis on minimising pigmentation risk.
Are results permanent?
Yes. Once a scar is improved through collagen remodeling, the results are permanent. Maintenance may be recommended for overall skin tone, texture, or ageing support.
Are the treatments safe for darker skin tones?
Darker skin tones require specialised care to minimise risks like pigmentation changes or worsening scars. Our dermatologists have extensive experience in tailoring safe and effective treatments for all skin types, ensuring optimal results while protecting the integrity of your skin.
