Struggling With Acne Scars?

Acne may be gone — but the scars remain. Many patients come to us feeling frustrated because:

  • Skin looks uneven or “bumpy” (pitted scars)
  • Makeup doesn’t sit smoothly
  • Skincare products don’t improve texture
  • Confidence drops, especially in bright lighting or close-up

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. We see many patients in Seremban & Setia Alam facing the same concern

What Causes Acne Scars?

Acne scars form when the skin does not heal properly after inflammation.

In simple terms:

  • Collagen is damaged → skin becomes indented (pitted scars)
  • Or excess collagen forms → raised scars
  • This is why different types of scars require different treatments.

Types of Acne Scars

Understanding your scar type is important before choosing treatment:

Ice Pick Scars

Deep and narrow

Boxcar Scars

Wider with defined edges

Rolling Scars

Uneven, wave-like texture

Hypertrophic / Keloid Scars

Raised scars

  • A proper assessment helps determine the most suitable approach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can acne scars be completely removed?

Acne scars usually cannot be removed 100%, but with the right treatment, they can be significantly reduced, making the skin look smoother and more even.

There is no single treatment that works for all scars. Treatment depends on:

  • Type of scar (ice pick, rolling, boxcar)
  • Depth of the scar
  • Skin condition

Most patients benefit from a combination of treatments such as laser, subcision, and microneedling.

Most cases require multiple sessions. General guideline:

  • Mild scars: 3–5 sessions
  • Moderate to severe scars: 5–10 sessions or more

This varies based on individual skin response.

Most treatments are tolerable.

  • Numbing cream is usually applied
  • You may feel mild discomfort or pressure during the procedure

Our doctor and therapist will ensure you are as comfortable as possible

Yes, depending on the treatment:

  • CO2 laser: a few days of downtime
  • Microneedling: mild redness for 1–3 days
  • TCA CROSS: light peeling

Your doctor will explain the expected downtime before treatment.

Results appear gradually over time.
  • Early stage: skin may look fresher
  • After several sessions: texture becomes smoother
Full improvement takes time as collagen rebuilding is a gradual process.

  • Improve overall skin condition
  • Reduce pigmentation

Clinical treatments are needed to improve skin texture and structure.

Most treatments can be adjusted to suit different skin types, including Malaysian skin. A proper assessment is important to ensure the treatment is suitable and safe.
Some temporary effects may occur, such as:
  • Redness
  • Mild swelling
  • Peeling
Risks are minimized with proper technique and post-treatment care.
