Acne Scar Removal & Treatment in South Delhi

Acne Is a Bigger Problem Than Injuries in Acne Scar Treatment

Acne is a skin condition that occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. It often causes whiteheads, blackheads or pimples, and usually appears on the face, forehead, chest, upper back and shoulders. Acne is most common among teenagers, though it affects people of all ages.

Though most individuals suffer from mild acne and get cured without any intervention, a severe form can lead to permanent disfigurement of the skin. Dr Jyoti believes in treating acne at its onset to reduce physical and psychological distress in her patients’ lives. Along with advanced medical care, treatments such as skin rejuvenation also help improve overall skin texture and recovery.

To treat resistant acne and speed up the recovery period, Dr Jyoti combines chemical peels, microneedling therapy, microinfusion of anti acne medications, microbuff and light based therapy. These results are often enhanced with supportive procedures like BB glow treatment, permanent makeup for eyebrows and even complementary services such as hair reduction to help patients feel confident and complete in their overall appearance.

Dear Acne, Let's Break Up

Scars, especially acne scars, remind us of the tissue damage caused and the body’s effort to repair that damage. Scarring is often worsened in acne patients when the acne is "popped" or picked at with fingers or sharp objects. With this additional injury to the skin, further inflammation is caused and the immune system has to work very hard to try and repair the tissue damage, often leading to unsightly scars. Conditions like skin diseases and dark spot and pigmentation can further affect how scars heal and appear over time. Scar removal treatments minimise the visibility of scars, allowing you to improve your self-esteem and no longer struggle to cover them up.

"From every wound there is a scar & every scar tells a different story which deserves a personalised & unique approach" — this belief guides every treatment, including advanced procedures such as skin tightening, which helps improve skin texture and overall scar appearance.

Types of Acne Scars

Pigmented Scars: Skin discoloration or pigmentation can manifest as red, red-brown, or brown-black discolored spots and is often the result of increased melanin production or blood vessel dilation from inflammation. Dealing with countless patients of skin discoloration of different skin types and ethnicities, Dr. Jyoti uses a combination of techniques including medical treatment, light and laser therapy, microneedling, and PRP treatment to achieve improvement in complexion. In some patients, related concerns such as micropigmentation also play a role in restoring overall appearance and confidence.

Hypertrophic Keloid Scar: These are thick, raised scars that develop due to excessive collagen formation during the body’s healing process. Keloids can grow beyond the original wound and continue to expand over time. Some individuals are more prone to developing them. To improve the look and texture of hypertrophic scars, Dr. Jyoti employs a combination approach that includes skincare, intralesional injections, and energy-based devices such as lasers, radiofrequency, and microneedling with PRP and growth factors. For patients who also experience hair-related concerns such as hair infections or those seeking advanced restoration options like hair transplant, these integrated treatments help improve both skin quality and overall appearance.

Ice Pick Scars: Ice pick scars are deep, very narrow scars that extend into the dermis. The skin looks as if it has been pierced by an ice pick or sharp instrument. Ice pick scars seem to make a small, thin, deep hole in the skin. Some may look like a large, open pore. Dr. Jyoti employs a series of focused treatments which go much deeper in order to produce dramatic improvements. Dr. Jyoti's approach to these scars begins with TCA Cross, a procedure in which trichloroacetic acid (TCA) is applied with a toothpick or needle to each scar, causing a controlled scab to form. Once the scab peels and the skin heals, the scar shrinks inward, decreasing in size. These treatments are usually followed by a combination of superficial treatments, such as lasers, peels, microneedling, and microneedling with radiofrequency, leading to more shallow scarring with improved skin texture.

Atrophic Scars: These are categorized as rolling (wave-like depressions across otherwise normal-looking skin) and boxcar scars (round or oval depressions with steep vertical sides). The skin itself looks uneven and can appear worse with makeup. Dr. Jyoti uses a multi-pronged approach and a variety of minimally invasive procedures to improve these scars.

First, Dr. Jyoti does subcision (internal sharp needling) to release tethered scars that are bound down and depressed due to an underlying scar tissue. Then, an autologous preparation which contains a large amount of platelets (PRP) or growth factor (factor 4) concentrated into a small volume is injected in these scars to cause growth of new collagen. Lastly, a tailored combination of lasers, peels, microneedling, and fractional radiofrequency or radiofrequency microneedling are used to resurface the skin’s texture; the precise combination is determined based on your skin type, the severity of the scars, and anticipated downtime. In the end, to give a finishing touch, fillers are injected to bring a smoother skin. Using this masterful approach, Dr. Jyoti expertly lifts, plumps, and remodels depressed scars at various levels to improve the overall texture of your skin.
