Renew Your Skin's Beauty: Acne Scar Subcision Treatment in Colorado
Why You Need It:
- Subcision is a simple and safe procedure for the treatment of rolling or tethered box-scar acne scars.
- During this treatment, a blunt cannula is inserted under the scar and moved back and forth to release fibrotic strands and form new connective tissue, thereby elevating the "scooped" appearance of acne scars.
- Performed by aesthetic injectors who will keep you looking natural and refreshed.
What to Expect:
- Injections may feel like a light pinching sensation or pressure. Most patients report a 2 out of 10 level of discomfort.
- We use injectable lidocaine to numb during this procedure so you may feel numb for an hour or so after the appointment.
- Bruising can occur.
-
Appointment Length:
- 30 minutes.
-
Frequency of Treatment:
- Typically, 1-3 treatments are necessary for optimal results.

Downtime:

Post Care:

- You may apply ice wrapped in a cloth to help reduce swelling.
