Why Acne Scars Need Multiple Treatments
Acne scars form when inflammation damages the skin’s collagen structure. Because these scars sit deeper within the skin, they cannot be removed with a single treatment.
Microneedling works by gradually stimulating collagen and remodeling scar tissue.
At Sorelle Skin Clinic, most clients see improvement after a course of treatments.
Typical Microneedling Treatment Plans
The number of sessions depends on the type and severity of scarring.
Mild Acne Scars
Recommended:
3–4 sessions
Improvements include:
- smoother skin
- reduced scar depth
- brighter complexion
Moderate Acne Scars
Recommended:
4–6 sessions
This helps rebuild collagen deeper within the skin.
Severe Acne Scars
Recommended:
6+ sessions
More advanced scars require repeated collagen stimulation over several months.
How Long Between Microneedling Sessions?
Microneedling treatments are typically spaced 4–6 weeks apart.
This allows the skin time to produce collagen and heal fully before the next session.
When Will You See Results?
Results happen gradually.
Typical timeline:
| Time | Results |
|---|---|
| 1 week | skin glow |
| 4 weeks | smoother texture |
| 3 months | visible scar improvement |
How to Maximise Your Results
To improve microneedling outcomes:
- follow post-treatment skincare
- use SPF daily
