Papillon Bleu Signature Acne Scar Treatment
with Subcision
Book Your Acne Scar Consultation​
While there are many ways to treat acne scars, our Signature Papillon Bleu Acne Scar Treatment uses a combination therapy approach to deliver the most effective results. This advanced treatment includes subcision, fractional laser resurfacing, and microneedling or RF microneedling.
By combining these minimally invasive techniques, we are able to release tethered acne scars, remodel damaged tissue, and stimulate natural collagen production for smoother, more even-textured skin.
Treatment Options
Subcision
For severe and deeply depressed acne scars, such as ice-pick scars and boxcar scars, subcision is often one of the most effective acne scar treatments available.
During a subcision procedure, a specially designed needle or blunt cannula is used to carefully release the fibrotic bands that tether the scar to the deeper layers of skin. By freeing these attachments, the depressed scar can lift, allowing the skin surface to appear smoother and more even.
Subcision is considered a minor surgical procedure and is most effective when combined with other treatments that stimulate new, healthy collagen production, such as fractional laser resurfacing or microneedling. This combination approach helps remodel scar tissue and improve long-term results.
Potenza, RF Microneedling
Our Signature Papillon Bleu Acne Scar Treatment with subcision includes traditional microneedling, with the option to upgrade to RF microneedling for enhanced collagen stimulation.
Microneedling uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response and promoting the production of new collagen and elastin to improve acne scars and skin texture.
For patients seeking deeper collagen remodeling, Potenza RF microneedling may be added as an upgrade. This advanced treatment combines ultrafine needles with radiofrequency energy to deliver heat into the deeper layers of the skin, further enhancing scar remodeling.
Both microneedling and RF microneedling are minimally invasive, suitable for all skin types, can be performed year-round, and may be used on various areas of the body.
Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing
The Papillon Bleu Signature Acne Scar Treatment with subcision also includes fractional laser resurfacing, one of the most effective treatments for improving acne scars and overall skin texture.
We use a non-ablative Er:YAG fractional laser, which stimulates collagen remodeling beneath the skin’s surface while preserving the outer layer of skin. This advanced technology allows for a safe, minimally invasive treatment with minimal downtime and side effects, making it an excellent option for acne scar resurfacing.
