Acne Scar Treatment in Layton, Utah

The active acne is gone, but the reminders are still there. For many patients, acne scarring is more emotionally distressing than the pimples ever were.

If you are seeing “pockmarks,” indentations, or rolling texture on your cheeks, no amount of makeup or serum will fix it. These are physical changes to the collagen structure of your skin. To fix them, you need medical-grade energy devices.

At my clinic in Layton, I specialize in acne scar treatments. We use a combination of lasers, chemical peels, RF microneedling, and subcision to smooth the skin and restore your confidence.

Types of Acne Scars We Treat

Ice Pick Scars: Deep, narrow holes that look like enlarged pores.
Boxcar Scars: Broad depressions with sharp edges.
Rolling Scars: Wave-like undulations in the skin texture.
Hyperpigmentation: Dark red or brown spots left behind (these aren’t true scars, but we treat them!).

Our Technology for Scars

Because scars sit deep in the dermis, we have to treat them from the inside out.

RF Microneedling This is a game-changer for rolling and boxcar scars. We use ultrafine needles to deliver radiofrequency heat deep into the skin. This breaks up the old scar tissue and forces your body to build new, smooth collagen.
CO2 & Erbium Laser Resurfacing For severe texture, laser resurfacing is the gold standard. It vaporizes the top layers of damaged skin, allowing fresh, unscarred skin to grow in its place.
Subcision Sometimes, a scar is pulled down by a fibrous tether under the skin. We can perform a minor procedure to “snip” this tether, allowing the skin to pop back up to a flat position.

Expectations

We aim for 50-70% improvement, not perfection. While we cannot give you the skin you had at age 10, we can significantly soften the shadows and smooth the texture so you feel confident without heavy makeup.

Whether your scars are from last year or 20 years ago, we can improve them. Schedule a cosmetic consultation to build your scar revision plan.
