    What Are Acne Scars?

    Acne scars are marks left behind after a pimple heals. While mild acne after subsiding may cause pimple marks, dark spots, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, nodular and cystic acne can result in scarring due to collagen damage. Acne scars vary in shape, size, and depth. Only an experienced dermatologist can identify their type and severity and suggest appropriate treatment.

    Why Do Acne Scars Form?

    After acne subsides, scars develop due to irregular collagen production during the skin’s healing process. The depth and severity of acne scars vary from person to person and depend on the individual’s skin and acne type. If you have recurrent and moderate to severe acne, you are at risk of experiencing permanent collagen damage that may adversely affect your skin texture and lead to scarring. Further, not treating the cause of acne on time, picking or squeezing the pimples, or having a family history of acne or hormonal fluctuations can increase your risk of recurrent acne and scars.

    What Are the Types of Acne Scars?

    Dermatologists broadly classify acne scars into two types: hypertrophic and atrophic scars. Hypertrophic or raised scars appear due to excessive collagen production during skin healing. Atrophic or depressed scars are a result of collagen deficit in the skin. Only 10% of acne scars are hypertrophic. Dermatologists further subdivide atrophic scars, which are more common, into the following types

    Rolling Scars

    Rolling scars are broad depressions with rounded margins and a diameter ranging from 3 to 5mm.

    Boxcar Scars

    These deep scars with sharp U-shaped indentations vary in width between 1.5 and 4mm.

    Ice pick Scars

    These vertical scars resemble ice pick tools, with sharp margins and narrow tips that go deep into the skin. They are more challenging to treat.

    What Treatment Options Are Available at Oliva’s Kochi Clinic?

    No single treatment plan works for all types of acne scars. Identifying the type of acne scars and curating a suitable treatment plan is critical for achieving the best results. Top dermatologists at Oliva Skin, Hair & Body Clinic in Kadavanthra, Kochi, are well-versed in performing advanced non-surgical acne scar treatments. They excel at customising solutions and may prescribe one or a combination of the following based on the diagnosis

    Laser Skin Resurfacing

    This advanced USFDA-approved treatment effectively reduces the appearance of the boxcar and rolling scars by stimulating collagen production. In this process, our experienced dermatologists will create controlled micro-injuries in the scarred tissue using the sophisticated fractionated Erbium YAG laser. This scar revision procedure takes less than two hours, and they use a numbing cream to ensure you have a comfortable and pain-free experience.

    Micro-needling Radiofrequency (MNRF)

    Another revolutionary and non-surgical scar correction treatment, MNRF boosts collagen and elastin production for the best scar revision results. Our medical team uses radiofrequency energy to heat the deeper layers of the scars. The procedure also has a skin-tightening effect and significantly improves skin texture.

    Chemical Peels

    Our experts prescribe different concentrations of plant-based extracts to exfoliate the damaged layers of the skin and stimulate collagen production, resulting in scar-free skin.

    Subcision

    Oliva’s doctors detach the tethered scars from the deeper tissue to visibly reduce their depth and appearance. This minimally invasive procedure performed by experienced dermatologists using tiny needles helps minimise the appearance of rolling scars.

    TCA Cross Peel

    This precise procedure effectively diminishes ice pick scars. Our doctors use different concentrations of trichloroacetic acid (TCA). Using a toothpick, they apply the TCA cross peel, inducing an increase in collagen levels and thereby reducing the appearance of the scars.

    Intralesional Injections

    These are specialised corticosteroid injections that help flatten hypertrophic scars or keloids

    Laser Toning

    Our dermatologists use the sophisticated, cutting-edge Q-Switched ND:YAG laser to minimise post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and help you achieve an even skin tone.

    *However, these prices are suggestions only and are subject to market changes. They do not necessarily apply to acne scar removal treatment at Oliva, as we offer custom-designed treatments based on your unique skin needs. The cost of acne scar removal treatment at Oliva varies for every individual. It depends on factors like skin type and condition, type and severity of scars, suitable modalities recommended by our dermatologist as solo or combo procedures, number of sessions, and the size of the affected area.

    The efficacy and safety of at-home acne scar treatments remain scientifically unproven, and experimenting with them involves a high risk of allergic reactions that may worsen your skin condition. Additionally, at-home treatments have a one-size-fits-all approach and may not be suitable for every skin and scar type.

    Many salons offer services to treat acne scars, but these are ineffective or provide short-lived results as they do not address the underlying collagen damage. As already mentioned, the treatment for acne scars depends on the type and severity of the condition. Harsh chemical-based salon services may irritate your acne-prone skin and aggravate scarring.

    Anyone over 18 with acne scars can visit Oliva’s Kochi clinic in the heart of Kadavanthra for advanced treatment. However, our dermatologists advise pregnant and lactating women against the aesthetic procedure to avoid complications.

    Leading dermatologists at Oliva customise acne scar treatment based on your scar type and severity to offer long-lasting results. 91% of our clients expressed deep satisfaction with our treatment results. However, to enjoy the best results, you must complete the recommended in-clinic sessions, follow pre- and post-care instructions diligently, and prevent future breakouts and scarring.

    Visit your dermatologist for acne scar removal treatment in Kochi if you have frequent breakouts that worsen or have nodular, cystic, or hormonal acne. You can also seek medical help from a qualified dermatologist if you notice that your pimples have left stubborn marks and scars on your skin that refuse to fade.
