The optimal treatment of acne scarring is challenging because it involves consideration of several factors, including the type and number of scars, Fitzpatrick skin type, and the amount of downtime permissible to the patient. The second article in this CME series discusses the procedural treatments available for acne scarring, including the use of chemical peels, fillers, radiofrequency microneedling, lasers and surgical procedures. The indications for each modality, evidence for its benefits, and the adverse effects are discussed. This section aims to help guide the reader to select and implement the most appropriate treatment based on the patient's preferences, acne scar and skin type. |
