Say Goodbye to Acne Scars with Laser Resurfacing
Acne scars can affect your confidence long after breakouts have healed. Laser resurfacing is one of the most effective treatments for reducing their appearance, offering smoother, more even-toned skin. At Awaken Aesthetics, we specialize in this advanced solution, helping patients achieve long-lasting results.

How Laser Resurfacing Works

Laser resurfacing uses focused light energy to target the top layers of the skin, removing damaged tissue and stimulating collagen production in the deeper layers. This dual action helps improve the texture and appearance of acne scars while promoting new, healthy skin growth.

Types of Acne Scars Laser Resurfacing Can Treat

1. Boxcar Scars: Broad, shallow depressions with well-defined edges.
2. Ice Pick Scars: Narrow, deep scars that resemble small punctures.
3. Rolling Scars: Wave-like indentations caused by tethered skin.

Benefits of Laser Resurfacing for Acne Scars

• Improves Skin Texture: Reduces the depth and visibility of scars.
• Stimulates Collagen: Promotes skin elasticity and smoothness.
• Evens Skin Tone: Addresses discoloration and pigmentation issues.
• Minimal Downtime: Most patients can resume daily activities within a few days.

What to Expect During Treatment

1. Consultation: Your provider will assess your skin and determine the best laser type for your needs.
2. Procedure: A numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort during the session.
3. Recovery: Expect mild redness and peeling for a few days as your skin heals and regenerates.

Complementary Treatments

Enhance your laser resurfacing results with:

• Microneedling: For additional collagen stimulation.
• Hydrafacial: To keep your skin hydrated and glowing post-treatment.
