Learn More About Acne Scar Treatment in Our FAQ’s

Acne scars are usually the result of inflamed blemishes that damage the skin’s collagen. Picking or squeezing pimples can also increase the risk of scarring.

The most common types include:

  • Ice pick scars – deep, narrow indentations
  • Boxcar scars – broad, shallow or deep depressions
  • Rolling scars – wave-like or uneven texture
  • Hypertrophic or keloid scars – raised scars

Treatment depends on your scar type, skin type, and severity. Options include microneedling, chemical peels, laser therapy, dermal fillers, and subcision. A consultation with a trained dermatologist or aesthetician will help determine the best plan.

The number of treatments varies depending on the scar type and severity. Some people see improvement in 1–2 sessions, while deeper scars may require 4–6 or more.

Most treatments are well-tolerated. Some procedures may cause mild discomfort or a warm, tingling sensation, but numbing creams or cooling devices are often used to keep you comfortable.

Results vary by treatment, but most people notice improvement within a few weeks. Full results may take several months as collagen rebuilds and skin texture improves.

While no treatment can guarantee 100% removal, modern treatments can significantly reduce their appearance and improve skin texture for smoother, more even-looking skin.

Most treatments are safe for all skin types, but some lasers or chemical peels may require special care for darker skin tones. Always consult with a licensed professional before starting treatment.

Downtime depends on the procedure. Microneedling and mild chemical peels often require minimal downtime, while deeper laser treatments may need several days of recovery.

The best prevention is managing active acne, avoiding picking or squeezing pimples, and following a consistent skincare routine recommended by a professional.

After a BBL treatment, dark spots may start to fade within a few days to weeks, with noticeable improvement continuing as the skin naturally sheds and regenerates over subsequent weeks.

You can gauge that your BBL is healing as redness and swelling subside, pigmented spots start to darken or flake off, and the skin gradually reveals a smoother, more even-toned appearance over the healing period.

After a BBL treatment, gently cleanse the treated area with a mild, non-abrasive cleanser recommended by your provider, avoiding scrubbing or harsh products, and always patting the skin dry to minimize irritation and promote healing.

Learn More About Chemical Peels Treatment in Our FAQ’s

Peels are primarily composed of high quality, naturally derived acids. These substances, which include Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs), are sourced from plants and fruits such as apples, grapes, citrus, and sugar cane. Once the solution has been applied to the skin for a set period of time, the acidity is balanced out by adding a neutralizing supplement.

Chemical peels take effect by causing the skin to blister in a well-controlled fashion. Following the procedure, patients experience light erythema (skin reddening), with skin gradually peeling over the subsequent days. Once this peeling process has finished, improvements will be immediately apparent. In the 4-6 weeks that follow the procedure, this positive trend will only continue until the patient is left with a fresh, radiant appearance.

Chemical Peels produce positive and immediate effects for those with fair skin. Patients with dark, olive, or Asian skin can still benefit from a chemical peel, but the depth and strength must be adjusted to avoid the risk of hyperpigmentation. At EverYoung, our dermal physicians will conduct a thorough skin analysis to ensure both safety and results for our patients.

Keeping skin protected from the sun is a critical component in maintaining your results. Apply a full spectrum (UVA and UVB) sunscreen daily to prevent new damage from occurring.

If you don’t moisturize after a chemical peel, the skin may become dry, flaky, and more prone to irritation, potentially prolonging the healing process and affecting the overall outcome.

After a chemical peel, it’s essential to avoid products containing harsh or abrasive ingredients, retinoids, and excessive sun exposure to prevent irritation and support proper skin healing.

Leaving a chemical peel on for too long can lead to excessive skin irritation, redness, peeling, and potentially increase the risk of complications, emphasizing the importance of following the recommended application time.

Washing your face after a chemical peel, especially with a gentle cleanser, is usually recommended to remove any residual peel solution and promote skin healing, but vigorous scrubbing or harsh products should be avoided to prevent irritation.

Chemical peels can be performed on sensitive skin, but it’s crucial to use mild peels, follow proper pre-and post-care routines, and consult with a skincare professional to minimize the risk of adverse reactions.

Chemical peels provide temporary improvements in skin texture, tone, and issues like pigmentation, and their effects are not permanent, requiring periodic treatments for sustained benefits.
