Acne Scarring

Understanding Acne Scarring - Causes, Types, and Effective Treatments
Acne scarring occurs when the skin's healing process is disrupted following inflammation from acne breakouts. This leads to the formation of different types of scars, including:

Icepick scars: Deep, narrow pits in the skin.
Boxcar scars: Shallow depressions with distinct edges.
Rolling scars: Broad indentations that cause an uneven skin texture.

What Causes Acne Scars?
Multiple factors can lead to acne scarring:

Acne severity: More severe acne increases the risk of scarring.
Delayed treatment: Treating acne early helps minimise potential scarring.
Picking or squeezing: This worsens inflammation and raises the likelihood of scars.
Genetics: A person may be more prone to scarring than another.
Hormonal fluctuations: Hormonal shifts can trigger or worsen acne.

Effective Acne Scar Treatments at Beauty By Doctor Bondi
Beauty by Doctor offers a range of advanced treatments to address acne scarring that can assist in restoring smoother, clearer skin:

UltraClear: This advanced laser treatment targets and reduces the appearance of acne scars through controlled heating and stimulation of collagen production for smoother, rejuvenated skin. This is a great option for all skin types including darker skin tones.
CO2 Laser: Smoother, more even skin texture is achieved by eliminating damaged skin cells and stimulating collagen production.
Morpheus8: Morpheus8 is a revolutionary fractional radiofrequency microneedling device that penetrates deep into the skin to stimulate collagen production and remodel scar tissue. This results in significant improvement in acne scars with minimal downtime.
Skin Peels: The tailored skin peel treatments we offer promote cell turnover, reducing acne scarring, and exfoliate the skin. Skin tone and texture can also be improved with peels.
Dermal Fillers: Depressed acne scars can be filled in with injectable dermal fillers, restoring volume and smoothness to the skin. This non-surgical approach provides immediate results with minimal downtime.
Bio-remodelling: Treatments with bio-remodelling promote collagen production and improve the appearance of acne scars over time by stimulating the skin's natural healing process.
Biostimulators: Poly-L-Lactic acid is a collagen-stimulating treatment that gradually improves the appearance of acne scars by replenishing lost volume and promoting tissue regeneration.
Acne Laser Facial: Our laser facial treatments target pigmentation and uneven skin texture, reducing the visibility of acne scars and promoting overall skin rejuvenation.
