Acne scars
← FAQI suffered from heavy acne in my teenage years. My skin has become clean now but little scars remained in my face. Could these be removed?
Dear Madam,
Acne scars in the face usually affect the deep layers of skin. The state can be improved only by surgical intervention. Scars which are very deep are first made less deep by mechanic dermabrassion with a grinder. More shallow scars and scars grinded previously are then smoothened by laser evaporation of the surface of the skin. Small areas can be treated in local anesthesia in an outpatient treatment; with larger areas a short general anesthesia is necessary. The period required for healing is approx. 10 to 12 days. Even states which are very unfavorable cosmetically can be gradually improved by laser interventions in 6 month intervals.
