Contour TRL Laser Resurfacing
Contour TRL (Tunable Resurfacing Laser) from Sciton is a cutting-edge erbium laser device that can be used to perform customized treatments for your skin. It is an excellent option for patients who have skin irregularities they would like to address, including acne scars.
The depth of treatment will depend on the skin condition, your desired outcome and expectation for downtime. Treating skin with a laser stimulates the growth of new collagen which improves the skin’s thickness and resilience. The skin surface will also re-grow with fresh and healthy cells which will give your skin a younger rejuvenated appearance.

Before and After Morpheus8
You’re less likely to develop acne scars if you break out less. Avoid picking, popping, or squeezing breakouts, no matter how tempting, to prevent irritating the skin and damaging the underlying tissue which can lead to scars. The best way to treat an acne scar is to prevent it in the first place. Using the appropriate skin care products can help treat acne and prevent future breakouts.
