Acne scars can make the skin texture look uneven. With microneedling we support skin renewal and collagen stimulation, aiming for a more refined texture and a smoother-looking complexion. Expect progress in steps — not a one-session miracle.

How does microneedling help acne scars?
“Microneedling creates micro-channels in the skin. This supports collagen stimulation and can gradually refine scar texture over time.”
- Refines skin texture
- Supports collagen
- More even appearance
- Course-based approach
Who is this for?
- Atrophic acne scars (indented scars) depending on type/depth
- Rough texture after acne
- Visible pores/texture in certain lighting
- Anyone willing to follow a consistent course
What to expect
When will I see results?
Gradually. Collagen build-up takes time. Improvement is often noticeable after multiple sessions and weeks.
How many sessions?
Usually 3–6 sessions depending on scar type and intensity. Maintenance may help.
Downtime?
Typically redness and sensitivity for 1–3 days. Recovery depends on intensity and your skin.

Aftercare (this is where results are won)

- 48 hours: no sauna/steam room/pool and avoid intense workouts.
- First days: no acids, retinol or scrubs; focus on recovery skincare.
