Post-Acne Scars

Post-Acne Scars and Treatment

Reduce your acne scars, so your skin will look smooth again!

Acne scars develop due to the rupture of the skin, releasing irritating contents into the dermal layer, causing a dermal inflammatory reaction. If the healing process is incomplete, it may lead to the creation of scars. Acne scars can be divided into atrophic (icepick, rolling, and boxcar) and hypertrophic scars. Each scar has its unique characteristics which each requiring a different therapeutic approach.

Viora is committed to providing safe, comfortable acne scar reduction treatments to restore confidence and quality of life.

Always remember: 

  • Use “professional” anti-aging skincare regimes, including masks and peels – it will help tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of the scars.
  • Don’t use heavy make-up; makeup can highlight the scars.

Viora’s reduction treatments can also be applied for other types of facial scars, such as post-injury or cutting.
