Acne Scar Treatment In Bangalore: Know The Cost & Results

Acne scars are, as the name suggests, the result of inflamed acne lesions. While healing the acne lesions, the skin attempts to form new collagen fibres. However, this collagen production is not uniform, resulting in the formation of scars. Depending on the severity of the acne and the person’s unique skin type, acne scars can either appear as indentations, known as atrophic scars or as raised scars known as hypertrophic scars.

Genetics, the severity of acne, and how well it was treated largely influence the formation of scars. Picking or squeezing pimples can also result in scars.

Depending on their appearance, dermatologists classify scars as atrophic (hollow or pitted) or hypertrophic (elevated).

Atrophic acne scars are further classified as:

• Rolling Scars: shallow indentations with sloping edges.
• Boxcar Scars: broad depressions with prominent edges.
• Ice-pick Scars: narrow, deep-pitted scars.

On the other hand, hypertrophic scars are thickened reddish-brown elevations. They result from collagen overproduction during the skin’s natural healing process after severe skin trauma.

Acne scars appear mostly on the face and the neck, while other areas like the back, upper arms and chest are prone to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation due to acne.

The most effective acne scar treatments in Bangalore are available at Oliva Clinics located in Indiranagar, Sadashivnagar, Jaya Nagar, Koramangala, Whitefield, HRBR and HSR layout.

Laser Skin Resurfacing: Oliva’s experienced dermatologists use fractionated Erbium YAG laser technology for this treatment that enables collagen production. This treatment helps in reducing rolling and boxcar scars. Using the laser, they target the affected skin tissue. The energy penetrates the deeper layers and stimulates collagen production, promoting skin renewal. It smooths out the uneven skin texture caused by the scars.The biggest advantage of laser resurfacing treatment is that dermatologists can adjust the laser energy to suit the unique requirements of every client. They work with it based on the severity of the acne scars and the skin type. Dermatologists also recommend multiple sessions in combination with other treatments so you can enjoy a noticeable reduction in your scars.

Chemical Peels: Another effective option for acne scars is a chemical peel treatment that exfoliates the outer layer, removing the damaged scar tissue while promoting new cell formation. Oliva’s dermatologists customise plant-based chemical solutions based on the scar severity and skin type of an individual. The peels vary based on their strength, ranging from superficial, medium to deep peels. Superficial chemical peels contain alpha hydroxy acids or beta hydroxy that help unclog pores and get rid of dead skin cells. Meanwhile, medium and deep chemical peels penetrate deeper into the skin, suitable for more deeper scar types. They promote collagen production for lasting results. This treatment gives you optimal results with minimal downtime and no side effects.

Micro-needling Radiofrequency (MNRF): Oliva’sdermatologists excel at this minimally invasive acne scar treatment that uses radiofrequency heat along with micro-needling for collagen stimulation. It results in skin regeneration while improving texture, making it smoother and scar-free. In the procedure, dermatologists use a device with fine needles and create controlled micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. This stimulates collagen and elastin production, that help reduce the appearance of pitted or depressed scars. The treatment also aids in better absorption of topical applicants that doctors often recommend for acne scars. In addition to this, dermatologists also release radio frequency energy that increases collagen synthesis and tightens the skin. This treatment is safe for all skin types with little downtime and no disruption to the individual’s daily routine.

TCA Cross Peel: TCA Cross peel is a treatment for certain types of acne scars, especially the ones that leave small and deep pits on the skin, known as ice pick scars. TCA stands for Trichloroacetic Acid, which is a strong chemical used to perform this procedure, where the dermatologists carefully insert it into the scars using a toothpick. It creates a controlled wound, and slowly, the skin will start to heal, producing more collagen and providing a structure to the skin. As the collagen fills the scars, they become less noticeable over time. You will need multiple sessions, usually weeks apart, to give you the best results.

Dermal Fillers: These are a non-surgical treatment option that work for depressed acne scars. Oliva’s skilled dermatologists fill in the depressed acne scars, restoring smooth and even skin surface. These hyaluronic acid injectables hydrate and plump the skin. During the treatment, they inject the dermal fillers directly into the scarred tissues. The best part of dermal fillers for acne scars is they provide immediate results that last from several months to a year. It is a safe treatment with minimal downtime, offering quick and noticeable results for acne scars.

Subcision: This treatment is excellent in treating depressed scars, especially rolling scars. Using a specialised needle, the dermatologist will reach the scar tissue under the skin and move it around to break the fibrous bands that are responsible for the depression in the skin. Then it becomes more in level with the surrounding skin. The simultaneous collagen production further smooths out the scars.    You will need multiple sessions in combination with other treatments to see the best results.

Laser Toning: This is an effective treatment for post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation that appears as red or dark spots resulting from excess melanin productions. Dermatologists target the dark spots with the advanced Q-switched Nd:YAG laser without harming the surrounding skin. The body’s immune system eventually eliminates it. The procedure also stimulates collagen production that improves the skin texture.

Intralesional Injections: It is best for hypertrophic scars where dermatologist inject corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and flatten the scar. It then becomes less visible and even with the rest of the skin. Overall, each of these acne scar treatments at Oliva Clinic Bangalore offer unique benefits for different types of acne scars.
