Acne is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages, often leading to scars that impact self-confidence.

From chemical peels to cutting-edge laser therapies, our treatments are designed to provide long-term relief and clearer skin.
Why Choose RJ CLINIC for Acne & Acne scar treatment?
Doctor-Led, Personalized Acne Treatment Plans
Every acne case is different. Our doctors assess your skin condition, acne stage, scar depth, sensitivity level, and lifestyle to create a customized treatment plan that targets both active acne and long-term scar recovery.
Targeted Treatment for Every Scar Type
Different acne scars require different approaches. We combine Potenza RF, Fractional Laser, PicoSure Pro, Subcision (when needed), and Exosome/PDRN skin repair to treat:
-
Rolling scars
-
Boxcar scars
-
Ice-pick scars
-
Post-inflammatory pigmentation (PIH)
This ensures more even skin texture and clearer complexion over time.
Safe for Asian Skin Tones
Our treatment protocols are designed to be effective while minimizing risk of post-laser pigmentation, especially for Southeast Asian and combination/oily skin types.
Gradual, Natural-Looking Improvement
We focus on progressive collagen remodeling, not aggressive over-treatment. Results improve session by session with healthier, stronger skin barrier support.
Medical-Grade Skincare for Long-Term Results
To maintain clear skin and prevent future breakouts, we provide RJ Clinical Skincare — a dermatologist-guided routine that supports treatment results at home.
Acne scar treatment works best when we combine resurfacing, collagen stimulation, and regenerative therapies.
At RJ Clinic, our approach focuses on repairing damaged skin structure while evening overall tone and texture. For deeper scars like ice-pick and boxcar scars, we use energy-based resurfacing such as Fractional Laser and Potenza RF Microneedling to remodel collagen from within. These modalities safely break down old scar tissue and encourage new collagen to form, leading to smoother skin over time.
For patients with redness, pigmentation, or dark marks after acne (PIH), PicoSure Pro laser helps fade discoloration with minimal downtime. When needed, we complement these treatments with Exosomes or PDRN regenerative therapy to enhance skin healing and improve hydration from beneath the surface. This combination supports faster recovery and more refined texture.
Every treatment plan is fully personalised by our doctors based on scar type, depth, and your skin’s response. Some individuals respond well to monotherapy, while others achieve the best results with a multi-modality plan. Whether you struggle with active breakouts, early scarring, or long-standing deep scars, our tailored acne scar resurfacing approach is designed to deliver gradual, natural-looking improvement.
Acne Scar Resurfacing & Regeneration at RJ Clinic
What Causes Acne & Acne Scars?
Acne develops when oil glands and pores become clogged with bacteria, dead skin cells, and excess sebum—leading to inflammation and breakouts. If the inflammation penetrates deeper into the skin, the tissue damage can result in acne scars.
Common Factors That Contribute to Acne & Scarring:
-
Hormonal imbalance (common among teens & adults)
-
Excess sebum production
-
Genetic skin sensitivity
-
Picking or squeezing acne lesions
-
Delayed or improper acne treatment
When to Treat:
If breakouts, texture irregularities, or visible scars persist longer than 3 months, early medical intervention helps prevent long-term scarring.
Reference: Based on clinical guidelines by the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD).
-
Atrophic Scars – Indented scars such as icepick, boxcar, and rolling scars.
-
Hypertrophic Scars – Raised scars caused by excessive collagen production.
-
Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) – Dark spots left after acne heals.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many sessions of chemical peels or laser treatments are needed for acne scars?
The number of sessions required depends on the severity of your acne scars. Typically, chemical peels require 3-6 sessions, while fractional laser treatments may require 3-5 sessions for noticeable improvement. Our specialists will guide you on the best treatment schedule based on your skin’s response.
Is Potenza RF Microneedling painful?
How long does it take to see results from Exosome and PDRN Therapy (Rejuran)?
Potenza RF Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment. A numbing cream is applied before the procedure to ensure comfort. Most patients describe the sensation as mild heat or slight discomfort, but it is well-tolerated with minimal downtime.
Results vary, but most patients start noticing improvements in skin texture, hydration, and acne scar reduction within 2-4 weeks after treatment. Multiple sessions may be needed for optimal results, depending on individual skin concerns.
Can RJ Acne Facials help with active breakouts?
Yes, RJ Acne Facials are specifically designed to target active acne by deeply cleansing the skin, reducing excess oil, and calming inflammation. Regular facials can help prevent future breakouts and improve overall skin health.
What is the difference between atrophic and hypertrophic acne scars?
-
Atrophic scars are depressed scars that form when the skin loses collagen after an acne breakout. These include icepick, boxcar, and rolling scars.
-
Hypertrophic scars are raised scars caused by excess collagen production during the healing process. These are more common on the chest and back.
How can I maintain clear skin after treatment at RJ Clinic?
To maintain clear skin, follow a proper skincare routine, use recommended RJ Clinical Skincare products, stay hydrated, eat a balanced diet, and avoid picking at acne. Regular facials and occasional treatments, as advised by our specialists, can help keep your skin healthy and acne-free.
Are RJ Clinical Skincare products suitable for all skin types?
Yes, RJ Clinical Skincare products are formulated to be effective yet gentle on the skin. Our range includes solutions for oily, combination, and sensitive skin, ensuring that acne-prone individuals can find the right products to balance their skin while preventing breakouts.
