Laser Acne Scar Removal

As the only True Laser^® specialists, at Body Details we’ve developed the highest standards for laser skin rejuvenation. All of our laser technicians are medically licensed. Additionally, they are certified as laser technicians by us at Body Details as well as by the laser manufacturers. What this means is that you will receive laser skin treatments that are both effective and safe. As no one but a licensed medical professional will ever touch your skin with a laser, you can rest easy knowing that you are in good hands. At Body Details we use the industry’s leading laser for acne scar removal. The PicoWay Resolve laser allows our medical laser technicians to customize a treatment plan specific to your acne scarring type and level of skin sensitivity. As fractional lasers, they are able to target areas where scarring has occurred without affecting the surrounding skin. It’s for this reason that there is little or no downtime after each treatment.

The PicoWay Resolve Laser

We use the strongest medical laser approved by the FDA, ensuring that you receive the most effective results in the shortest amount of time. Part of what sets us apart from the rest is that our lasers are calibrated for your skin before each use. We calibrate our lasers based off your skin's level of sensitivity, the type of acne scar we are treating, as well as the area of the face on which you are receiving treatment. This ensures that you receive the proper wavelength of light and energy levels. Not more than your skin needs, and not less. With laser acne scar removal at Body Details, only the scars are targeted and the surrounding skin is not damaged. This minimizes the chance of negative side effects that you may receive at other laser centers that do not use this specialized calibration process.

Our True Laser^® procedure provides the most sophisticated laser skin rejuvenation technology on the market. As a noninvasive procedure, there are numerous advantages you can expect:

• Treatments require little or no recovery time
• They’re done in less than 20 minutes on average
• They will eliminate the appearance of acne scars
• Skin tone and texture will dramatically improve
• They stimulate collagen production and healthy skin healing
• They provide results after just one treatment

After a blemish forms and damage is done to the outer layer of the skin, the body reacts by producing collagen to promote healing. Those who suffer from severe acne don’t always heal properly, resulting in scars. At Body Details we strive to eliminate the scars that leave the texture of your skin uneven with large bumps or pitted marks. Atrophic acne scars are the most common type of scars left behind when the skin suffers damage. Atrophic scars appear as dents or pitted marks on the skin’s surface. They form when the body forces collagen to leave the area where a blemish has popped up, rather than producing more collagen to heal the skin damage. The result is atrophic scars that appear in three different variations.

Ice-Pick Acne Scars

Ice-pick acne scars appear on the skin in the form of deep, narrow, pitted scars that are commonly found along the cheekbone and chin. They are a common result of cystic acne and can affect the texture of the skin, causing it to appear uneven. They may appear as small holes in the skin and are generally resistant to at-home treatments.

Rolling Acne Scars

Rolling acne scars appear on the skin in wave-like depressions, giving it an uneven texture and appearance. They most commonly appear on the lower cheeks and along the jawline and may cause skin discoloration. It is common for redness to accompany rolling scars.

Boxcar Acne Scars

Boxcar acne scars appear on the skin as round or boxy depressions with steep vertical sides that are far wider than ice-pick scars. They can appear red, and are varied in deepness. Over time they may begin to fade on their own but will not completely disappear. Like rolling scars, they are also common on the lower cheeks and jawline, where the skin is thicker.

Hypertrophic Acne Scars

Hypertrophic scars will develop when an overproduction of collagen occurs in response to skin damage caused by a cyst or blemish. The healing process will form clumps near the skin’s surface. This result is lumpy, uneven skin texture that’s impossible to cover up. Those who are prone to keloids are more likely to develop hypertrophic scars, and they most commonly form on the chest and facial area.

Using the PicoWay Resolve lasers’ advanced technology and the customized treatment plan devised by our licensed medical laser technicians, we are able to target the damaged skin cells that form scars. The lasers create microscopic wounds that destroy damaged skin cells, allowing the body to naturally produce new, healthy cells that aren’t affected by skin imperfections. Additionally, laser skin rejuvenation increases collagen production, which will help to fill in atrophic scars, ultimately making them less visible. Getting rid of frustrating acne marks has never been easier with laser skin rejuvenation acne scar removal. Fast acne scar treatment allows many people to schedule their laser sessions during their lunch break or on their way home from work. Most patients report little-to-no side effects and drastically improved skin tone and texture. See our acne scar laser treatment before and after photos!
