Understanding Acne Scars
Acne scars form when the skin’s healing process after acne breakouts is disrupted, leading to changes in skin texture and tone. They can appear as indentations, raised areas, or dark marks on the skin.
Types of Acne Scars We Treat:
- Superficial Acne Scars - Minor textural changes and mild pigmentation on the skin’s surface.
- Medium or Deep Acne Scarring - Pronounced indentations, uneven texture, or rolling, boxcar, and ice pick scars.
- Dark Acne Scars - Also known as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), these appear as dark spots or patches after acne has healed.
What causes Acne Scars?
Acne scars form as part of the skin’s natural healing process after a breakout. When acne penetrates deep into the skin, it damages the surrounding tissue and the collagen structure beneath. During repair, the body produces collagen to rebuild the area. If too much collagen is produced, raised scars can appear, while too little collagen leads to a loss of tissue, resulting in pits or indentations. The extent and type of scarring depend on your body’s unique healing response, the severity of the acne, and how the skin was treated during the breakout.
That’s why starting acne treatment as soon as possible is the best way to prevent long-term acne scarring.

Acne Scars Treatment FAQ
The best treatment depends on the type and severity of your acne scars. At Dr. Stasch MediSpa, we use Alma iPixel™ Laser or microneedling for medium to deep acne scarring, and Alma ClearLift™ Laser, microneedling, or chemical peels for superficial acne scars.
Most clients see noticeable improvement after 3–6 sessions, but the exact number depends on your skin type, scar depth, and the treatment method chosen.
Yes. We use advanced laser technology suitable for all skin types, including darker skin tones, with settings tailored to minimise the risk of pigmentation changes.
Downtime varies by treatment. ClearLift™ has minimal to no downtime, microneedling typically requires 1–3 days of recovery, and iPixel™ Laser may need 3–5 days for full healing.
While no treatment can guarantee 100% removal, our advanced methods significantly reduce scar depth, improve skin texture, and fade pigmentation for a smoother, more even skin complexion.
