Acne / Pimple Scar Revision

Acne scars can linger long after breakouts fade—leaving behind uneven texture, pigmentation, and emotional discomfort. Dr. Karthik Raja offers advanced, personalized scar revision treatments to help you regain clear, confident skin.

What Are Acne / Pimple Scars?

Acne scars form when inflamed blemishes damage the skin’s collagen structure. Depending on severity and skin type, they may appear as:

Atrophic scars – Depressed scars like ice-pick, boxcar, or rolling scars.

Hypertrophic scars – Raised, thickened scars due to excess collagen.

Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) – Dark spots left after acne heals.

Red marks or erythema – Persistent redness from vascular changes.
