Acne Scar Subcision & Resurfacing

Multi-modality revision for rolling, boxcar, and ice-pick acne scars

Acne Scar Subcision & Resurfacing
Clinical Overview

About the Procedure

Acne scars are polymorphic: ice-pick scars run deep, boxcar scars have sharp vertical walls, and rolling scars are tethered to the underlying subcutaneous tissue by fibrous bands. At Blush & Bloom, we reject a one-size-fits-all approach. We combine surgical subcision to release anchoring tether bands, TCA CROSS for narrow pits, and collagen induction to raise depressed scar craters.
