Acne Scar Removal

Often, a combination of treatments (like lasers and microneedling) might be recommended for the most effective results. The CO2 (carbon dioxide) laser is one of the most advanced laser technologies used to treat acne scars, especially deep, pitted scars (atrophic scars). It uses high-energy light beams to target the skin’s deeper layers, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin renewal.
