Acne scars ka treatment “one size fits all” nahi. Scar type decide karta hai treatment. Broadly scars 3 types:
- Rolling scars (wave-like dents)
- Boxcar scars (sharp edges)
- Ice-pick scars (deep narrow)
Microneedling: Rolling + mild boxcar scars me useful. Skin me tiny controlled injury create karke collagen boost karta hai. Usually 4–6 sessions lagte hain.
Subcision: Rolling scars me best, kyunki scar bands ko release karta hai. Sometimes filler ke saath combined hota hai.
Lasers: Texture + pigmentation + scars improve. Fractional lasers popular, but downtime aur cost higher.
Ice-pick scars me TCA CROSS ya punch techniques better. Often best results “combo treatment” se aate hain—subcision + microneedling + laser, depending on scars.
Aftercare matters:
- Sunscreen strict
- Picking avoid
- Gentle skincare + hydration
Timeline:
Visible improvement usually 2–3 sessions ke baad start hota hai, full results months me show hote hain.
Doctor choose karte waqt “before-after” photos aur scar analysis important hai. Over-promising clinics se bachna. Acne scars treat ho sakte hain, par realistic improvement goals set karo—70–80% improvement bhi life-changing hota hai.
