Acne scars, explained
Why acne scars need the right plan
Acne scars come in different shapes. Rolling scars are broad and shallow, boxcar scars have sharper edges, and ice pick scars are narrow and deep. Most people have a mix, and each type responds to a different treatment.
Fractional CO2 resurfaces the skin in thousands of tiny points and builds new collagen underneath, which softens the edges of scars over time. Microneedling creates tiny channels that remodel the skin with less downtime.
At GENEVA we use , an FDA-cleared laser made in Italy by DEKA and used by leading aesthetic and medical practices across North America and Europe.
What we treat
- Rolling acne scars
- Boxcar acne scars
- Ice pick acne scars
- Uneven texture from past breakouts
- Post-acne marks and discoloration
- Enlarged pores
Red or brown marks are not always true scars. Your provider tells you which you have and what improvement to expect.

“I did a CO2 laser treatment with Kimia, and she was the most friendly, professional, and accommodating Aesthetician that I’ve ever worked with. I look forward to continue being her client and working toward achieving my skin goals.”
Results vary from person to person.
Three ways to treat acne scars
Your provider recommends one at your skin analysis, based on your scar types and how much time off you can take.
Your treatment day, step by step
- 1
Before: get your skin ready
Your provider gives you a simple plan. You may start a skin product about 4 weeks before, and stop retinol and exfoliating acids 5 to 7 days before. Avoid tanning.
- 2
Numbing, about 30 minutes
A numbing cream goes on first, and we give it time to work before we start.
- 3
The laser, 20 to 30 minutes
Our medical cooling system blows chilled air over your skin the whole time to keep you comfortable. Your provider checks on you throughout.
- 4
Home the same day
You leave with written aftercare and a number to call or text with any questions while you heal.
What recovery looks like
It depends on the treatment, and we plan your sessions around your calendar.
- Microneedling
- Pink, slightly tight skin for 24 to 48 hours after each session.
- Fractional CO2
- About 3 to 7 days of healing after each session, as fresh new skin comes through.
- The next months
- Scars keep softening as new collagen forms, through the series and beyond.

Is it right for me?
Acne scar treatment is a popular choice for people who want smoother texture and more even-looking skin after years of breakouts.
At your complimentary skin analysis, your provider looks at your scar types, your skin type and tone and your treatment history, and builds the plan that fits you.
If you still have active breakouts, we calm those first, with treatments like our acne therapy facial, so scar treatment works on clear skin. Tell us if you take or recently took isotretinoin (Accutane) and we’ll time your plan around it.
