Acne scars can be more than just a reminder of past breakouts—they can affect your confidence and how you feel in your own skin. At XO Medical Spa in Tustin, we specialize in personalized, cutting-edge solutions that target acne scars at the source, helping you achieve smoother, clearer skin with long-lasting results.
Why Do Acne Scars Form?
Acne scars develop when breakouts penetrate the skin deeply and damage the underlying tissue. This can result in textural irregularities such as pits, indentations, or raised areas. While over-the-counter treatments may help reduce redness, they rarely address the structural damage that scars leave behind.
That’s where professional acne scar treatments come in.
Our Top Treatments for Acne Scars
1. Microneedling for Acne Scars
Microneedling is one of the most effective, non-invasive treatments for acne scars. Using a device equipped with tiny needles, this treatment creates micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate your body’s natural healing response. As collagen and elastin are produced, the skin begins to repair itself—softening scars, refining texture, and improving tone.
At XO Medical Spa, our clients love microneedling because it’s safe for most skin types and requires minimal downtime.
2. PRP Therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
Microneedling becomes even more powerful when combined with PRP—a treatment that uses your body’s own plasma to supercharge healing. After drawing a small amount of your blood and spinning it in a centrifuge, we extract the growth-factor-rich plasma and apply it during or after microneedling. This combination enhances collagen production and significantly accelerates skin regeneration.
Many clients report faster results and reduced inflammation with microneedling + PRP than with microneedling alone.
3. Skin Resurfacing Treatments
For deeper scars or more stubborn textural issues, skin resurfacing options such as laser treatments and chemical peels may be recommended. These treatments work by removing damaged outer layers of skin and encouraging new, smoother skin to form.
Laser resurfacing in particular can target both pigmentation and textural concerns, making it a versatile and highly effective option for a wide range of acne scar types.
Real Results, Real Confidence
Here at XO Medical Spa, we’ve seen firsthand how transformative these treatments can be. One of our clients, Sarah, struggled with deep acne scars for years and tried multiple drugstore remedies with little success. After three microneedling + PRP sessions, she began noticing a visible softening in her scars and a significant improvement in her skin’s smoothness.
“I finally feel confident going makeup-free,” she shared. “I never thought I’d say that.”
