Acne scars can be a lasting reminder of acne, even after the pimples have disappeared. Fortunately, there are various effective treatments available that help fade and reduce acne scars, restoring your skin to a smooth and even appearance.
Acne scars develop when the skin is damaged by severe acne, such as deep inflammations, cysts, or pustules. These scars can manifest as deep pits, indentations, or elevations on the skin, causing uneven skin texture and potentially reducing self-confidence. The good news is that acne scars can be significantly reduced with the right treatments.
The skin’s reaction depends on the chosen treatment. With mild treatments, such as a chemical peel, you may experience slight redness and peeling. More intensive treatments like microneedling or laser treatments can lead to temporary redness, swelling, or scabbing, but this typically heals within a few days to a week.

With supplementary insurance, many skin treatments are often reimbursed, such as treatments for acne, acne scars, pigmentation spots, redness, and facial hair removal. We have contracts with all health insurers.
The number of treatments needed for acne scars depends on the severity of the scars and the chosen treatment method. Generally:
The skin improves after each treatment, but it’s important to be patient, as results become gradually visible as the skin heals and produces collagen. Your specialist can offer you a personalized treatment plan, depending on your skin and goals.
The price depends on the chosen treatment method and the number of sessions needed to achieve the desired result. During an intake consultation, we will discuss the costs tailored to your needs.
Most treatments for acne scars are well-tolerated. With some treatments, such as microneedling or laser therapy, you may experience a slight tingling or burning sensation.
If you have supplementary insurance, ‘residual acne treatments’ are covered by health insurers up to a certain amount per year.
After a treatment, it’s important to properly hydrate the skin and protect it from the sun. We always recommend a moisturizing cream and a sunscreen with at least SPF30 to protect your skin and support the healing process.
