Acne Scar Treatment Singapore: What is it, How It Works, Cost & Process

Why Choose Professional Acne Scar Treatment?

Acne scars can leave visible marks that impact your skin’s appearance and self-confidence. At AURA Clinic, we provide tailored solutions to address and reduce the visibility of various types of acne scars. Our treatments are designed to improve texture and tone, helping you achieve radiant and more even complexion.

Our professional treatment offers a targeted approach to address the complexities of acne scars. Here are some of the benefits:

Specialised technology. We offer laser therapy, radiofrequency microneedling and other technology to target acne scars. These technologies support skin renewal, which may improve the scar appearance over time.
Customised care. Treatments are tailored to your skin type and the specific type and severity of your acne scars.
Safe and professional environment. Procedures are carried out by a licensed aesthetic practitioner, ensuring a high standard of care.

Types of Acne Scars We Treat

Acne scars vary greatly in appearance because our skin doesn’t heal uniformly after a breakout. Understanding the type of acne scar you’re dealing with is essential for choosing the right treatment. At AURA Clinic, our doctors specialise in addressing the following scar types:

Rolling Scars

Broad, shallow scars that create uneven contours on the skin.

Ice Pick Scars

Deep and narrow scars that extend into the skin layers.

Boxcar Scars

Angular depressions with defined edges.

Hypertrophic Scars

Raised scars caused by excess tissue growth.

Acne Scar Treatments Available at AURA Clinic

Fractional Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling

Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy, targeting both superficial and deeper layers of the skin.

Fractional Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling
- Monopolar RF reaches the deeper layers of the skin to tighten and revitalise it.
- Bipolar RF focuses on refining skin texture and reducing the appearance of acne scars.

- Improve skin tone and refine textures.

When to Consider Acne Scar Treatment

Acne scar treatment is typically recommended once active acne is controlled. Signs that you may benefit from treatment include:

Persistent scars.
The presence of deep acne scars or visible textural irregularities.
Discoloured marks that remain after acne breakouts.

Consulting a professional can help determine the right time and treatment plan for your skin.
