Acne Scar Techniques
Topical Treatment
Retinoids primarily remove dead skin cells and prevent them from clogging pores. This clears acne and reduces the formation of scars effectively. Through their mechanism of action, retinoids enable other scar reduction medications to spread over the dermal surface evenly. Patients opting for Facial scar revision in Dubai and other areas of the world are started on topical retinoids as the first mode of treatment or primary treatment technique.
Chemical Peels
Apart from drastically reducing acne scars, chemical peels effectively improve the hyperpigmentation of the skin. Conducted regularly, they aid in reducing sunspots with increased collagen production in the skin.
Bizrahmed offers some of Dubai’s most efficient Scar removal methods through chemical peels. While atrophic scars respond to salicylic acid-containing peels, deep scars, especially ice-pick ones, require a higher concentration of salicylic acid.
Dermabrasion
Residual scars caused by systemic conditions like chicken pox and stretch marks respond best to the Dermabrasion technique. Clinics offering the Dermabrasion method of Facial scar revision in Dubai often administer sedatives or anaesthetics to the patient before the procedure for symptomatic relief. Additionally, it is discouraged in patients with a history of keloids or acne with a pustule tendency.
Skin Needling
During the needling process, the skin produces more collagen to heal the wounds, which fills out fine lines effectively, works on acne scars, and reduces wrinkles. Though both differ, Dubai’s Micro-needling Acne scar removal method is often confused with microabrasion. Micro-needling synthesizes collagen better than Dermabrasion and works better for the skin. Patients with darker skin or sensitive skin opting for Facial scar revision in Dubai, Bizrahmed, are often suggested micro-needling by surgeons because of the compatibility of the procedure with their skin type.
Botox
Botox works efficiently in relaxing the facial muscles and limiting stress on the scar tissue area in patients undergoing facial scar revision in Dubai with increased acne scars. This, along with repairing the collagen network, helps decrease the visibility of acne scars. Apart from acne scars, the technology implemented by the medical experts at Bizrahmed even allows using Botox to treat surgical scars.
Excision & Punch Replacement Graft
Punch excision involves using a round tool by the plastic surgeon to transform indented scars into flat linear scars. The treated region is then closed linearly with skin sutures to provide the appearance of a flat linear scar. Punch grafting is used for deep scars like toothpick ones or scars wide enough to be unable to be closed linearly.
The technique does involve removing Grafts from behind the ear to complete the excision spots effectively. The state-of-the-art technology used for surgical interventions at Bizrahmed and the satisfactory patient results has made it one of the best places for Acne scar removal in Dubai. We aim to provide you with the best possible care with successful outcomes for everyone under our care.
Tissue Fillers
Tissue fillers lift the scars to the skin’s surface to reduce their intensity and improve the skin texture. They even break up the scar tissue and improve the collagen network for enhanced results. Bella fills, to date, is the only FDA-approved soft tissue filler for the long-term correction of acne scars. Other fillers like Juvéderm, Restylane, and Sculptra are other FDA-regulated fillers used short-term for the scar.
Irrespective of the filler used for acne scar removal in Dubai medical centres, you must regularly make follow-up visits to monitor your scars. Our clinical team at Bizrahmed often combines dermal fillers with laser treatments to enable patients to obtain the best facial scar revision in Dubai quickly and effectively.
Steroidal Injections
Steroids break the bonds between collagen fibres to help reduce the scar tissue beneath the skin. Additionally, they have anti-inflammatory properties that reduce the pre-existing Inflammation, redness, tenderness and itching in the treatment regions.

Laser Treatment for Scar Removal

It is so named because it targets a fraction of the skin and leaves healthy, intact skin surrounding the treatment area for adequate healing time. Apart from Fractional CO2 laser acne scar removal in Dubai medical centres, V-beam laser, KTP laser, Fraxel Laser, and F.A.S.T are other lasers used to reduce acne scar intensity successfully.
Acne Scars Diagnosis
While it is true that facial scar revision programs in Dubai are much more popular than other cosmetic surgery, acne can occur in other areas of the body like hands, arms, and backs and be as much frustrating visually. The routine examination enables the plastic surgeon to evaluate the regions of acne in the body; it also helps them differentiate initially hyperpigmentation spots confused with acne. Acne scars result in mild to moderate pigmentation spots with a visible change in skin texture. On the other hand, hyperpigmentation presents in the form of intense pigmentation with or without textural changes.
Usually, a thorough examination by a dermatologist is a significant part of the diagnosis. Identification factors like the scar’s type, shape, and thickness further help confirm the diagnosis. While hypertrophic scars consist of thickened tissues over the wound area, atrophic scars have a pitted, sunken appearance with an indentation on the external layer of skin.
Scar removal aims to effectively eliminate acne spots irrespective of whether in the individual’s facial regions or other body areas.
Because of the prior skin requirements to be blemish-free, surgeons, before a scar removal in Dubai, ensure that the treatment area is clean before proceeding further. Whether in patients opting for facial scar revision in Dubai or undergoing acne scar reduction in other body areas, the acne is graded into mild, moderate, and severe categories. This makes it easy for the surgeon to form a treatment plan regarding the scar. Additionally, it enables them to counsel the patient about camouflaging techniques.
