Novel approach to Acne Scar Treatment : What You Need to Know

Acne scarring can be more than skin deep—it often leaves emotional and psychological marks long after the acne has cleared. At Beach Road Surgery & Skin Clinic, we understand the complex nature of acne scarring and offer advanced, medical-grade treatments in Batemans Bay to restore confidence and skin health.


Why Acne Scars Happen

Acne scars form when inflammation damages the deeper layers of the skin, triggering abnormal wound healing. This can result in:

  • Atrophic scars (icepick, boxcar, or rolling scars)—caused by tissue loss
  • Hypertrophic or keloid scars—caused by excess collagen production
  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) and erythema (PIE)—which can mimic scarring but usually fade over time

Even mild acne can lead to scarring if left untreated. Early, effective intervention is key in prevention—but if scarring has already developed, multiple proven treatments can help.


Personalised Acne Scar Treatments at Beach Road Surgery & Skin Clinic

Our team offers a multimodal, evidence-based approach to treating acne scars—tailored to the type, depth, and distribution of scarring, as well as your skin type.


1. Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy)

Microneedling uses fine needles to stimulate collagen and elastin production in the dermis. It's effective for rolling and superficial boxcar scars, and improves skin tone and texture.

🔹 Best for: Atrophic scars
🔹 Key benefits: Skin tightening, pore reduction, minimal downtime

2. Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling

This technique combines microneedling with RF energy to remodel deep scar tissue and stimulate collagen from within.

🔹 Best for: Deep acne scars in patients of all skin types
🔹 Key benefits: Deeper penetration, effective for resistant scars, suitable for darker skin

3. TCA Chemical Peels (Trichloroacetic Acid)

We use medium-depth clinical-grade TCA peels to exfoliate damaged skin, promote regeneration, and reduce PIH and superficial textural irregularities.

🔹 Best for: Superficial boxcar scars, pigmentation, and uneven tone
🔹 Key benefits: Brighter, smoother skin; enhanced collagen turnover

4. Ablative & Non-Ablative Laser Resurfacing

We offer both ablative laser resurfacing (more intensive, for deeper scars) and non-ablative fractional laser (gentler, with shorter recovery).

🔹 Best for: Textural scarring, enlarged pores, skin rejuvenation
🔹 Key benefits: Custom depth control, long-term skin renewal

5. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections

PRP uses your own blood’s growth factors to accelerate healing, enhance collagen production, and improve overall skin quality when used alone or after microneedling/laser.

🔹 Best for: Atrophic scars, dull skin
🔹 Key benefits: Natural, regenerative treatment with minimal risk

6. Insulin Microinjections

A novel, scientifically backed method using microinjections of diluted insulin to promote healing and reduce scar fibrosis—particularly after fractional treatments.

🔹 Best for: Resistant scarring, areas with slow healing
🔹 Key benefits: Boosts collagen, improves scar texture
