Acne & Acne Scar Treatment

Medical-grade acne and acne scar treatment using a combination of CO2 Laser, Pico Laser, and Morpheus8 RF microneedling, tailored by MOH-registered doctors based on acne type and scar morphology.

Acne and the scarring it leaves behind require a multi-modal, medically supervised approach to achieve meaningful and lasting results. Astria Medical Aesthetics takes a structured clinical approach to acne management, combining energy-based devices with medical consultation and evidence-based protocols. For active acne, Carbon Laser Peel (Hollywood Peel) reduces sebum production, unclogs pores, and decreases the P. acnes bacterial load on the skin surface, making it an effective adjunct to oral or topical acne medications. Pico Laser's anti-inflammatory properties help reduce acne-related redness and accelerate the resolution of post-inflammatory erythema and early PIH. For acne scarring, the clinic's approach is guided by scar morphology. Ice-pick and boxcar scars respond best to Fractional CO2 Laser, which ablates micro-columns of damaged skin down to the dermis, stimulating significant collagen synthesis and skin surface remodelling. A course of 5–10 sessions is typically needed, spaced 6–8 weeks apart, with 3–7 days of downtime per session. Rolling scars and mixed-texture scars are well addressed by Morpheus8 RF microneedling, which delivers fractional radiofrequency energy to 4mm depth, promoting new collagen matrix formation and gradually smoothing the skin surface. Three to four sessions spaced 4 weeks apart are recommended. Pico Laser adds a complementary layer by treating superficial textural scars and residual pigmentation across all scar types. The clinical team at Astria designs individualised treatment plans based on a thorough consultation, Fitzpatrick skin typing, and 3D photographic documentation of the acne and scarring pattern. MOH-registered doctors oversee all treatments and provide transparent guidance on expected outcomes, downtime, and the number of sessions required.
