Acne scars form wherever acne advances to the point of injuring our tissue. These injuries arise as an inflammatory response to sebaceous follicles becoming plugged with oils, bacteria and dead cells. The result is the formation of a scar – that discolored fibrous tissue with abnormal collagen function that replaces our healthy skin. Successful treatment of a scar requiresboth the removal of damaged epidermal tissue and the stimulation of new collagen to improve the region's tone and texture.

We treat the reduction of acne and surgical scarring with the FDA approved Fraxel® Laser Treatment.

Recent studies showed that the Fraxel laser could be far more effective than traditional therapies at both removing damaged tissue and inducing the formation of new collagen and our own experience has shown the procedure can produce outstanding results with minimal downtime.

Fraxel Laser Treatment, with its gentle non-ablative skin rejuvenation and rapid healing time, is available to people of all skin types for the treatment of acne scars.

In addition to acne scars, the Fraxel® Laser is also FDA cleared for the treatment of surgical scars, fine wrinkles around the eyes, age spots, sun damage, melasma and tone and texture improvement.
