ACNE SCARS – Evidence-Based Treatment Options
Acne scars are a common aesthetic concern and require targeted, clinically grounded strategies to improve texture, density and overall skin quality. Depending on the type of atrophic scarring (rolling, boxcar or ice-pick), practitioners often combine regenerative treatments with techniques that release fibrotic tethering and lift depressed areas.
At Fräya Med Supply, products relevant to acne-scar protocols can be found across four key categories:
• Mesotherapy
Supportive serums used to refine tone, hydration and superficial irregularities. Especially useful in protocols focused on textural improvement and mild atrophic changes.
Skinboosters & Polynucleotides (PN)
Skinboosters and PN products support hydration, elasticity and dermal regeneration, making them essential in protocols targeting superficial irregularities and mild atrophic acne scars.
Polynucleotides enhance ECM repair, improve dermal density and boost overall skin quality, while skinboosters provide smoothing, hydration and light-reflecting improvement. Both are often combined with mesotherapy or structural treatments for optimal texture refinement.
• PDO Threads
Selected PDO threads may assist with mild atrophic scars by providing structural support and stimulating tissue remodeling within the dermal layer.
• Dermal Fillers
While not regenerative in the same way as skinboosters or mesotherapy, selected HA fillers can significantly improve atrophic acne scars by:
-
lifting depressed areas,
-
releasing fibrotic tethering during cannula movement (subcision-like action),
-
restoring contour where tissue loss is present.
This makes fillers an important option when regenerative products alone are insufficient to elevate deeper scars.
Combination Approach (Recommended)
Modern acne-scar protocols frequently combine several modalities—for example:
-
Skinboosters + Mesotherapy for texture refinement
-
PDO Threads for selected tethered scars
-
Dermal Fillers for structural correction and elevation of deeper atrophic scars
Such multi-layer approaches align with current clinical literature and deliver more predictable, long-term improvement.
