Acne scars are a common skin concern that can remain long after active acne breakouts have healed. These scars occur when inflammation damages the skin’s collagen structure, leading to uneven skin texture, depressions, or irregular skin surface.



Acne scars can appear in different forms, including atrophic scars, rolling scars, boxcar scars, and ice-pick scars, each requiring a targeted treatment approach.

At Gangnam OneCell Skin Clinic in Seoul, we offer advanced acne scar treatments designed to stimulate collagen regeneration, improve skin texture, and restore smoother and healthier-looking skin.

1. RF Microneedling for Collagen Regeneration

RF microneedling is one of the most effective treatments for improving acne scars. This procedure combines microneedling technology with radiofrequency energy to stimulate deep collagen and elastin production.

By creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin, the treatment encourages natural skin repair and remodeling.

Common Treatment Areas
• Cheeks
• Forehead
• Temples
• Jawline

Benefits
• Improves acne scar depth
• Stimulates collagen regeneration
• Smooths uneven skin texture
• Enhances overall skin firmness

2. Laser Resurfacing for Skin Texture Improvement

Advanced laser treatments target the deeper layers of the skin to promote collagen remodeling and improve skin surface irregularities.

Laser resurfacing helps reduce the visibility of acne scars while improving overall skin tone and texture.

Advantages

• Reduces scar visibility
• Stimulates skin renewal
• Improves skin smoothness
• Promotes healthier skin structure

3. Subcision for Deep Acne Scars

Subcision is a specialized technique used to treat deep acne scars, particularly rolling scars.

During this procedure, a fine needle is used to release the fibrous bands beneath the skin that pull the scar downward.

Key Benefits

• Releases scar tethering under the skin
• Improves depressed scar depth
• Stimulates collagen regeneration
• Enhances overall skin texture

4. Skin Boosters for Skin Regeneration

Skin booster injections help improve skin hydration, elasticity, and skin regeneration, supporting the healing process after acne scar treatments.

These treatments help improve overall skin quality and enhance the results of collagen-stimulating procedures.

Benefits

• Improves skin hydration and elasticity
• Supports skin healing
• Enhances skin texture
• Promotes healthier skin appearance

5. LDM Therapy for Skin Recovery

LDM micro-ultrasound therapy helps accelerate skin healing, reduce inflammation, and improve skin regeneration after acne scar treatments.

Key Benefits

• Reduces skin inflammation
• Supports collagen remodeling
• Enhances skin recovery
• Improves overall skin condition

6. Combination Treatments for Optimal Results

Because acne scars often involve multiple layers of skin damage, combination treatments typically provide the best improvement.

At OneCell Skin Clinic, treatment plans are customized based on each patient’s scar type, skin condition, and severity of scarring.

Example Treatment Plans

• RF microneedling + subcision
• Laser resurfacing + skin boosters
• Subcision + collagen stimulation treatments
• RF microneedling + LDM skin therapy

These combinations help improve skin texture, stimulate collagen regeneration, and restore smoother skin appearance.
