Acne scars, a common aftermath of severe acne, can leave lasting marks on both the skin and self-esteem. Damalis Skin Clinic in Wimbledon specialises in treating acne scars through advanced methods like microneedling and chemical peels, targeting everything from superficial scars to deeper scars. We understand the importance of treating these scars to improve skin appearance and boost overall confidence.
Every individual’s skin journey is unique, especially when it comes to acne scarring. Our clinic offers personalised acne scarring treatments, catering to a range of scars, including atrophic acne scars, boxcar scars, and deep ice pick scars. We focus on understanding each type of acne scar to provide the most effective treatment for acne scars.
When acne lesions heal, the skin may produce too much or too little collagen, forming raised or depressed acne scars. This imbalance in the skin healing process is crucial in deciding the right acne scarring treatment. Options like microneedling are designed to normalise wound healing and collagen production.
Depending on the severity, we may recommend the Obagi TCA peel, microneedling or both.
Typically require a combination of treatments, including chemical peels and resurfacing procedures, to smooth the scar edges.
Treatments like collagen induction therapy (also known as microneedling) or soft tissue fillers are effective in raising depressed scar areas.
We recommend the following treatments for acne scarring:
We also can shift focus on treatment for acne and preventing acne scarring in clients with active acne, using modalities like alpha hydroxy acids to keep pores unclogged and reduce the formation of new acne lesions.
Our approach to treating acne scars involves a detailed analysis of each client’s skin type, including sensitive skin, to tailor the best treatment with minimal risk. We offer current treatment modalities that are effective and safe, ensuring scars are completely healed, and skin appearance is significantly improved.
Protecting and Caring for Your Skin Post-Treatment Post-treatment care is crucial. We advise on the best practices for wound healing and maintaining skin health, including the importance of minimising sun exposure to prevent further skin damage and scarring.
