Experience a subtle yet meaningful improvement in texture, revealing healthier skin that better reflects your inner vibrancy.

What Is Subcision for Acne Scars?

Subcision is a targeted technique that addresses certain types of depressed acne scars by releasing the fibrous bands pulling down the skin’s surface. This controlled process helps the skin elevate to a more even plane, reducing the appearance of indentations. Over time, your body’s natural healing response fills the area with new collagen, further improving texture and resilience. Ideal for rolling and some boxcar scars, subcision can be performed alone or combined with other treatments such as laser resurfacing, microneedling, or regenerative therapies to enhance overall results. The outcome is a smoother complexion that restores both comfort and confidence.

How Does Subcision for Acne Scars Work?

During subcision at NewEra Medical Aesthetics and Laser Center, a fine needle or specialized cannula is inserted beneath the scar, using gentle, precise movements to sever the bands of scar tissue that are tethering the skin downward. Once released, the skin can rise and regain a more even contour. As the treated area heals, your body generates new collagen, strengthening the skin’s support structure and creating smoother, more uniform results. Because subcision directly addresses the underlying cause of depressed scars, it can achieve lasting improvements, especially when integrated into a personalized acne scar revision plan.
