Acne Scar Treatment in Pakistan

Smooth, Restore, and Renew Your Skin

Acne scars can affect not only your skin but also your confidence. Fortunately, modern cosmetic procedures offer effective, long-lasting solutions. At Dr. Asim Durrani’s clinic, we offer customized acne scar treatments based on the type and severity of scarring β€” ensuring smoother, healthier-looking skin.


πŸ” What Are Acne Scars?

Acne scars are the result of inflamed blemishes caused by clogged pores and long-standing acne. When deep inflammation damages the surrounding tissue, it leaves behind textural changes like pits, depressions, or raised scars. These can be:

  • Rolling scars (broad depressions)

  • Boxcar scars (sharp-edged indentations)

  • Ice pick scars (deep, narrow pits)

  • Atrophic scars (sunken, soft scars)

  • Hypertrophic or keloid scars (raised and firm)

Each type may need a different treatment approach β€” or a combination.


πŸ’‰ Advanced Acne Scar Treatment Options

At Dr. Asim Durrani’s clinic, we provide personalized treatment plans using a combination of the following:


βœ… 1. Subcision (Scar Release Surgery)

Subcision is a minor surgical procedure where a special needle is inserted under the scar to break the fibrotic bands pulling the skin downward. It helps to elevate depressed scars and stimulate natural collagen production.

  • Local anesthesia is used

  • Minimal downtime

  • Works best for rolling or tethered scars

  • Often combined with fat or filler injection for enhanced lifting


βœ… 2. Fat Grafting (Autologous Fat Transfer)

Your own body fat is gently harvested (commonly from abdomen/thigh), purified, and then injected under depressed scars.

  • Natural and biocompatible

  • Improves volume loss, skin texture, and pigmentation

  • Contains stem cells that help regenerate tissue

  • Multiple sessions (usually 2–3) may be needed for optimal results

  • About 60–80% fat is absorbed after the first session

  • Intervals between sessions: 6–8 months

  • Third session usually gives long-term, stable improvement


βœ… 3. Dermal Fillers

HA fillers like Juvederm or Restylane are injected under shallow scars to instantly lift and smoothen them.

  • Quick, non-surgical

  • Results are visible immediately

  • Lasts from 6–12 months

  • Ideal for patients who want fast results or are not ready for fat grafting


βœ… 4. Microneedling with PRP or RF (Radiofrequency)

Microneedling stimulates collagen by creating micro-injuries. When combined with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) or radiofrequency, it dramatically enhances skin repair.

  • Minimally invasive

  • Reduces surface irregularities

  • Improves texture and fine lines

  • Safe for all skin types


βœ… 5. COβ‚‚ or Er:YAG Laser Resurfacing (Optional Add-On)

Laser treatment helps to smoothen the top layers of skin and stimulate collagen underneath.

  • Downtime: 3–7 days

  • Multiple sessions may be needed

  • Often combined with subcision or fillers for better results


πŸ“ˆ Expected Results & Recovery

  • Improvement in skin texture and scar depth with each session

  • Natural-looking enhancement, not overfilled

  • Minimal downtime depending on the technique

  • Final results may take several weeks to months to fully appear

🟨 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) – Acne Scar Treatment

1. Which acne scars can be treated with subcision?

Subcision is best for rolling scars and tethered scars. It lifts the depressed areas by breaking scar bands under the skin.


2. Is fat grafting better than fillers?

Fat grafting offers a longer-lasting, more natural result and improves skin texture due to its regenerative properties. Fillers give quicker results but are temporary (6–12 months).


3. How many sessions of fat grafting are needed?

Typically 2 to 3 sessions. About 60–80% of fat is absorbed after the first session. Sessions are spaced 6 to 8 months apart, with long-lasting results after the third.


4. How long is the recovery after subcision or fat injection?

Mild swelling and bruising for 3–7 days. You can usually resume normal activities within a few days.


5. Are the results permanent?

Fat grafting offers permanent improvement, especially after multiple sessions. Fillers need to be repeated every 6–12 months. Subcision results can also be long-lasting when combined with collagen-boosting treatments.


6. Can laser or microneedling be done after subcision or fat grafting?

Yes, once initial healing is complete (after 4–6 weeks), complementary treatments like laser or microneedling can further enhance results.


7. Will these treatments lighten my skin or improve pigmentation?

While not direct whitening treatments, fat grafting and PRP can improve overall skin tone, texture, and brightness.
