Laser acne treatment is an advanced solution that targets both active breakouts and acne scars. Using precise laser light, it reduces excess oil production, acne-causing bacteria, and inflammation—helping you achieve clearer skin with fewer breakouts in weeks, not months.
Laser acne treatment delivers targeted results with minimal redness or downtime, so you can get back to life quickly. Over a series of treatments, it will reduce acne scars and improve skin texture, leaving your skin smoother, calmer, and more even-toned.

Our Acne Scar Treatments
-
Laser Acne Treatment
Laser acne treatment uses advanced technologies, such as Fraxel and Fortona, to stimulate collagen production and resurface scarred tissue, resulting in significantly smoother skin and a reduced appearance of acne scars over time.
-
Microneedling
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production to smooth and reduce the appearance of acne scars.
-
PRF
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is an advanced, all-natural version of PRP that forms a fibrin matrix rich in growth factors and white blood cells, providing a scaffold for sustained healing and enhanced collagen production to significantly improve the appearance of acne scars and overall skin texture.
-
PRP
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses your body's concentrated growth factors, from a small blood sample, to accelerate tissue repair. Combined with treatments like microneedling, it stimulates collagen to smooth and fill depressed acne scars and improve skin texture.
-
Subcision
Subcision is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a specialized needle to break the fibrous bands of tissue tethering the acne scar to the underlying structure, allowing the skin to lift and promoting collagen remodelling for a smoother appearance.
Laser Treatment & Technology
What It Treats
Acne scars by improving skin texture and stimulating collagen
Excess oil that contributes to ongoing breakouts
Texture and discoloration issues, including hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and red marks left behind by acne
Key Benefits of Laser Acne Treatment
Non-Invasive: Generally painless with minimal downtime.
Active Acne and Scarring: Prevents breakouts and improves acne scars.
Quick Results: Visible improvements after just a few sessions.
Long-Lasting: Long-term improvements in skin clarity and texture.
Laser Technology
Fortona Laser: This treatment utilizes an Er:YAG laser to combine ablation and a non-ablative approach to gently resurface scarred skin. The fractional ablative component targets deeper scars (such as icepick scars & deep atrophic scars), working to improve skin texture and stimulate collagen production. It offers a powerful solution but involves slightly stronger pain and moderate downtime.
Fraxel Laser: Fraxel laser technology uses a non-ablative fractional (Er:Glass) method to generate microscopic treatment zones in the skin. This stimulates collagen production and replaces damaged cells, resulting in a gentler treatment. It is especially suitable for mild to moderate scarring and has less downtime than ablative fractional laser options.
How Laser Technology Works
Fractional lasers target specific microscopic areas of the skin to stimulate collagen production and resurface scarred tissue, leading to smoother skin texture and reduced appearance of acne scars.
Visible improvements in as few as 4–6 sessions.
Non-ablative technology means minimal redness, quick sessions, and little to no downtime
Safe, effective results with no known side effects when performed professionally

FAQs About Our Acne Laser Treatment
-
Yes, laser treatment for acne can be highly effective, particularly for people with moderate to severe acne or those who have acne scars. Laser treatments target different aspects of acne, such as inflammation, excess oil production, bacterial overgrowth, and skin texture issues. The effectiveness of laser treatment, however, depends on factors like the type of acne, the type of laser used, the severity of the condition, and how well the skin responds to the treatment.
-
Laser treatments can also be very effective for improving the appearance of acne scars, especially when traditional methods (like over-the-counter products or topical creams) don’t produce satisfactory results, but they do not provide a permanent cure in the sense that acne may never return. While laser treatments can provide long-lasting results and significantly improve the appearance of the skin, acne is a chronic condition that can be influenced by various factors such as hormones, genetics, diet, and lifestyle.
-
For active acne, 4–6 sessions (spaced 1–2 weeks apart) are typically needed to see a significant reduction in breakouts. Maintenance treatments may be necessary every 3–6 months to prevent future breakouts.
For acne scarring, 3–6 sessions (spaced 4–6 weeks apart) can help improve the texture of the skin, with full results visible over the course of a few months. Touch-up treatments may be needed annually or as new acne breakouts cause scarring.
Ultimately, the exact number of sessions required will depend on the individual, the type of acne, and the laser treatment used. Our dermatologist will assess your skin and develop a personalized treatment plan to help achieve the best possible results.
-
With most laser treatments you will have a two-week recovery time. You might experience a little discomfort, swelling, and even a small amount of oozing or crusting of the skin. Keep in touch with your doctor if you have any concerns during your recovery time.
-
After treatment, protect your skin by avoiding direct sun exposure for 2–4 weeks and wearing a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily. Use a gentle cleanser and hydrating, non-comedogenic moisturizer, and avoid picking or scratching the skin if mild peeling occurs. Stay well hydrated and avoid heavy sweating, workouts, or strenuous activity for about one week to support proper healing.
-
Most clients return for a follow-up appointment 2–4 weeks after their first session so we can assess healing and results. Depending on the severity of your acne or scarring, multiple treatments may be recommended. Active acne treatments often require 4–6 sessions, spaced 2–4 weeks apart, to achieve optimal, long-lasting results.
-
Laser acne treatment is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Extra care may be required for individuals with very sensitive skin or darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick Types V–VI), which will be assessed during your consultation to ensure safe and effective treatment.
