Acne scars can be more than just a reminder of breakouts — they often linger long after the pimples have cleared, affecting self-confidence and skin texture. While some marks may fade naturally over time, stubborn acne scars can be incredibly resistant to over-the-counter creams and home remedies. So, what actually works? At Westwood Clinic, we specialize in advanced, science-backed treatments designed to effectively reduce acne scars and restore smooth, radiant skin. Whether you’re dealing with deep pitted scars, dark spots, or uneven skin tone, there’s a solution that fits your needs — and we’re here to guide you through the best options available.
While over-the-counter (OTC) products like spot treatments, scar gels, and exfoliating cleansers may offer temporary improvement for mild acne marks, they often fall short when it comes to stubborn or deep acne scars. Here’s why:
Most OTC creams and serums only work on the surface of the skin. Acne scars — especially atrophic or pitted types — are caused by damage deep within the dermis. Without professional-grade technology or active ingredients that penetrate deep layers, OTC solutions simply can’t reach the source of the problem.
To ensure safety for mass use, OTC products contain low concentrations of active ingredients like retinol, AHAs, or vitamin C. While these can help with mild discoloration over time, they’re often not strong enough to break up scar tissue or stimulate significant collagen production.
No two acne scars are the same — and OTC products aren’t designed to address the specific type of scar you have (e.g., rolling vs. ice pick). Without a tailored plan, progress is often slow or non-existent.
At Westwood Clinic, we understand that no two acne scars — or skin types — are alike. That’s why we offer a comprehensive range of advanced, clinically proven treatments tailored to different types of scars, from deep pits to stubborn dark marks. Here’s a breakdown of the most effective options:
This combination treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin. The addition of PRP — derived from your own blood — enhances healing and skin regeneration.
When it comes to treating stubborn acne scars, there’s rarely a one-size-fits-all solution. Acne scars vary in depth, shape, and severity — and that’s exactly why Westwood Clinic takes a customised combination approach to deliver optimal results.
Starting your acne scar treatment journey can feel overwhelming — but at Westwood Clinic, we make the process smooth, transparent, and results-driven. Here’s what you can expect every step of the way:
Your journey begins with a comprehensive skin analysis by our experienced aesthetic doctors. We’ll examine the type of scars you have (rolling, boxcar, ice pick, pigmentation) and assess your skin condition, lifestyle, and goals.
Based on your skin analysis, our doctors will curate a customized treatment plan. This may include a combination of lasers, microneedling, PRP, subcision, or skin boosters — tailored specifically to your scar types and skin needs.
Every procedure is performed in a sterile, relaxing environment with advanced equipment and techniques. Most treatments are well-tolerated with minimal discomfort, and numbing cream is provided when necessary.
Some treatments (like CO2 laser) involve a few days of downtime, while others (like Pico laser or PRP microneedling) have little to none. You’ll receive detailed post-care instructions to ensure optimal healing and faster recovery.
Most patients see visible improvement after just a few sessions — with full results appearing gradually over weeks to months as your skin regenerates collagen and smoothens naturally.
We don’t just treat and forget. Our team offers continuous follow-up and adjustment of your treatment plan based on your skin’s progress and response. You’re supported from start to finish.
